All the comments here are great, but how is it that in such an inspiring and intellectual community such as HN there are so few dreamers who actually have "big" goals (for some definition of "big")?
Keeping fit and learning some programming language are great goals, don't get me wrong, but in trying to think about my own goals for 2023 I can't help but thinking "really? Are these really my goals? Running 5k or whatever? When I'm on my deathbed, would I care that I achieved that goal?"
I wish I could come up with something more ambitious and memorable, and was hoping this thread would have some exciting ideas.
Then again, maybe dreamers prefer to remain silent and just work on their goals...
