Resolutions if taken in the right spirit could help.

I had decided on the following three goals for 2018:

- Run 3 times a week. I was 30% successful at this. I dropped the ball during a time period when I switched jobs. Not only that, I still don't have a regular schedule but my stamina is better than before and I'll spill this one over to 2019.

- Read 26 books. I used to read a lot of books in school but in college and now in the tech world, it was sidelined and did miss it. I was more than 100% successful in this one. I read 20 books and listened to more than 25 audiobooks. Some friends recommend that I try out audiobooks and I thoroughly enjoy my commute.

- Get into flow stat as fast as possible. I failed at this miserably. I used to get a lot of focused time at the last job but the new one has an interrupt driven team. I realized this later than I should have (October). I've not been successful in making any progress yet but have some ideas and have started to test those out now. This is my brain giving an excuse but I have to accept that I failed.

An additional stretch goal towards which I made some progress was start learning a new language. This was one of "In 5 years I want to". I have started learning Spanish and I'm in early stages but I've got my habit in place.

I'd love to know how others did with their resolutions and what they learned about themselves more.
