To motivate myself further, I added on a few more goals.

• To khatam Quran before going for Umrah in November - I have only khatam twice in my life, so I feel that I should do it once before going for Umrah.
• To maintain my gym - Minimally to go for gym at least 3 times a week for the whole year. If I go for more, it's better but it has to be 3 times a week, no matter what.
• To not lose my Duolingo streak at all - I am already at 180-days streak practicing on my German and French. I shall continue it until end of the year.
• To complete at least 1 of my BL series books - I have the complete set of 3 BL-Wuxia series, 17 books total, and I have completed reading only 1 book. To top it off, I still have another 14 more BL books under ongoing series, So that means more books to buy to complete them. I need to start reading physical books again.

In Shaa' Allah, I will be able to achieve all my goals for 2026.
