dear @birchmark this is great !! it is very nice that you have faced the same this topic admitting your limitations and the reasons why you could not make it. I think that being aware of yourself and what you are able to do is one of the most important goals in life !! and in any case it is absolutely right to have understood that all you have done is half the work for the goals of next year.
usually I don't do lists of goals, I live for the day, but someone I have: 1. study English very well; 2. improve my photographic skills; 3. start driving the car again.
all the best for ;-))
