A Review of 2016

2016 was a decent year comprising the following achievements:

- developed a daily yoga and meditation practice (my most prized achievement this year!)

- started practising stoicism and mindfulness (still a work in progress)

- converted from a “goals-approach” to a “systems-approach” to keeping fit and healthy (thus enabling me to exercise more and develop a healthier diet in an enjoyable and therefore, sustainable, manner)

- spent a lot of quality time with loved ones

- saved S$50,000 in cash

- read up about insurance and upgraded my integrated shield plan

- overcame analysis paralysis and started investing in the STI and some local bonds 

- started an Interactive Brokers account 

- developed net-worth and expenses tracking systems and habits

- made some peace with working at a job (still a work in progress)

- updated my CV frequently

- finally decided to “step out of the shadows” (hence this blog)

I hope to spend the next few days charting some sort of direction for 2017.

Enjoy the last few days of 2016, everyone!
