Life Goals List for 2022 “The most important thing about goals is having one.” –Geoffry Abert 25th January 2022 20/25 **Hello Hello you awesome and wonderful readers :)** Here we are now hurtling towards the second, yes the second month of the year 2022. Is it just me or does time seem to accelerate the older we get? **Bucket List** First of all, I do not like the term at all. The term gained popularity from the 2007 movie “The Bucket List” where Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson create a bucket list of things to do before they kick the bucket(die). Where the term came from nobody seems to know, although a couple of theories are doing the rounds: From executions in the Middle Ages where the victim would stand on a bucket with a noose tied around their neck. The bucket would then be kicked away and the victim would strangle to death. From the Catholic custom of holy-water buckets. After a person died their body would be laid out and a bucket of holy-water would be placed at their feet. Friends and family who came to visit and pay their respects would sprinkle the body with said holy water. Whichever is the origin I find it quite morbid and I would rather rename my bucket list to life goals list to be completed while I am still alive! **So I shall call this my Life Goals List for 2022** **I don't want to kick the bucket in 2022** Now that my wee rant is over and done with, I want to see 2023. So that means eating healthyish and keeping up with exercise. Gone are the days of playing football and team sports, but I do love my walking. So keep being active and exercising is my main goal here. **Stay Positive** If the first item on my life goals list was concerning physical health then the second concerns my mental health. I like to be positive and I tend to be a glass half full type of person. I think it is do with coping with an illness for most of my life. I like to be upbeat and positive, and see a positive in everything. As an example, why do people say not bad? A typical conversation How are you? *Oh you know, not bad.* Do you mean good? *Yes good...* Then why not say good. Be positive. Don't say not bad, say good instead... I want to stay upbeat and positive in 2022 **Publish my book** I promised to send the first draft of my book to @CoquiCoin before her birthday in December! So, the pressure is on. My great grandfather published his memoirs. He was well-travelled and lived in a few countries from France to China where he was a UK diplomat. It is from him where I got my wanderlust, and my novel is faction, a blend of fiction interspersed with facts on and about me and my exploits. I have been publishing chapters of Archie here, and I need to publish more. **Grow my crypto portfolio** The only goal I made prior to writing this article for 2022 was to send a dollar a day to two crypto wallets, and I can proudly say that I have been doing that every day so far in 2022. **Give yourself a pat on the back Edward. Okay I will, thank you Edward.**

I am a big BCH and smartBCH fan and a large slice of my portfolio is in BCH related projects including NFTs. The above picture is of three Pandas that I minted yesterday on smartBCh and hopefully the project is an example of growth as they intend having a Panda NFT game and breeding options. I do have holdings in other networks such as Atom and Cosmos. I want to have holdings in an additional two networks in 2022. Of course, as with any crypto project I will be making sure that I Do My Own Research , I see too many people blindly doing what the masses do without knowing what they are investing in! **Take some inland waterways courses** Normally I would be setting goals for vacations or getaways, however with the pandemic still going with respect to travel restrictions, the holiday idea is now staycation focused and in particular taking some courses prior to buying a canal boat on the English canal network. There are four accredited courses that I want to take, and each lasts two days. Whilst all four might be a stretch this year, I am definitely setting goals to do the first two, as they will be vital in spotting a dead duck of boat when looking to buy. Helmsmans Course Diesel Engine And Boat Maintenance Boat Electric Systems (Design And Installation) Boat Plumbing Heating And Engine Installation Due to social distancing requirements, class sizes are less than normal so it might mean getting all four done is hard, especially as the locations are in England to do all four. **Crypto permitting buy a canal narrowboat** The big one, and where all my focus is. I want to buy a narrowboat for cruising the English and Welsh inland waterways and live on 24/7. Preferably a boat around 50 foot in length. Something similar to the boat in the picture below that I took on the Union canal in Edinburgh last year would be ideal.

Whether this happens in 2022 really will all come down to how the crypto markets are performing and how well I have picked projects to perform well. If it does not happen in 2022 then it will by hook or by crook happen in 2023. The above makes up my **Life Goals List for 2022** , I hope that you enjoyed this list, please excuse my wee rant as an introduction, and if you have not made yours, then I urge you to do so.
