Introvert Talks - Happy Birthday To Myself Soon

"Introvert Talks" is meant to be a new initiative or theme, where I myself as an introvert, just talk about reflections and thoughts about my life, or maybe share more personal stuff. :)

This is my weekly post under this "Introvert Talks" theme and let's see where it takes me and us.

---

It's been a while. I probably skipped a week but actually maybe it's not a bad idea to do this on a fortnightly basis too.

The previous post was all doom and gloom, and I was reading it again today. Things are recovering but I probably say we are not out of the woods yet. Life goes on.

Back to the topic of this post, April is by far my favourite month of the year because it's my birthday month. For privacy reasons, I wouldn't divulge which day of April is the actual day, but it's one of the days in this month.

Personally, I am not a fan of birthdays. And I think it gets less significant as I got older. Every day can be special if you make it to be, right?

Rather than doing birthday wishes, I thought it might be more fun to set some crazy ambitious goals for myself by Apr 2026 to see if they would "come true". Because it's meant to be crazy and ambitious, it has to be something that is extremely difficult to achieve, but might be possible if there are some lucky stars to help out.

Crazy Goal #1: To sleep 56 hours a week

56 hours of sleep a week works out to be 8 hours a day for a consistent 7 days. It might sound easy to some people, but it's definitely extremely difficult for me. I try my best to get 7 hours of sleep everyday, and that's works out to be (only) 49 hours a week. To be able to find another extra 7 hours is tough. Am not sure how I am going to achieve this but who knows, maybe I could try this when I am on vacation or something. Lol.

Crazy Goal #2: To lose 10 kg

My current weight is 64 kg, and losing 10 kg would mean I would be weighing only 54 kg. It's a crazy goal because I don't think I have seen myself at 54 kg ever since I entered adulthood. For most parts of my 20s, my weight probably fluctuated around 58 to 62 kg. But it's inching upwards because I could feel my metabolism slowing down in the 30s. Wouldn't it be awesome if I could just lose 10 kg of fat and look lean and fit again? :P

Crazy Goal #3: To have 100k USD in my Hive Wallet

Since we are on Hive, I thought I should do a Hive related one. So the crazy goal would be to hold 100k USD in my Hive Wallet. My current Hive Wallet is around USD 2,725 and it would take a 37x or 3700% jump to achieve this goal. To achieve this, not only I would need to gain a lot of Hive, the price of Hive probably need to jump by a lot. But who knows, in a fantasy world, the price of Hive could be 5 or 10 USD. HAHA.

Alright, that's the crazy goals I set for myself to celebrate my upcoming birthday. Actually if you distill the underlying key points, it's really just about being well rested, staying fit and healthy, and be financially comfortable. Hehe!

So thanks for reading, and see you next week for more reflections!
