🌟 Spotlight on Goldbelly

Goldbelly is your passport to the nation’s most iconic foods, delivering legendary dishes from top restaurants, bakeries, and chefs straight to your door. From New York bagels to Texas BBQ and Chicago deep-dish pizza, Goldbelly brings the flavors of America to food lovers everywhere.

Personally, I love to order gifts from Goldbelly for family for the holidays. I generally like to give gifts that people can use up and don't create clutter, and these are fun finds. Most of their options aren't healthy and cost more than I would regularly spend, but they're a delicious splurge.

🏃‍➡️ Gearing up for New Years Goals

It’s time to start thinking about New Years Resolutions and 2025 Goals. This week I’ll lay out some suggestions for 2024 reflections. Next week, I’ll give some resources for thinking about 2025.

Each year, I reflect on the questions below. It helps me see the progress I’ve made over the year, how I’ve changed, and helps me understand where I want to go. In times that I’m feeling negative or stressed, the “energized v. drained” questions gave me a lot of clarity, and I highly recommend those!

• What were my successes this year

• What energized me?

• What drained me?

• How did I grow?

• What lessons did life teach me?

• Where did I take risks?

• What am I grateful for?

• What thoughts, habbits, or actions should I start doing?

• What should I stop?

• What should I continue?

• How could I have been better? Where did I miss the mark.

This list is roughly built off a list from one of my favorite writers, Nat Eliason. I also love the questions from Joshua Kennon, who used to write an incredibly insightful blog on personal growth and finance. Now he runs his own asset management company.

Finally, if you haven’t heard of Sahil Bloom, here’s his piece on personal annual reviews. His weekly newsletter is fantastic.

Happy reflecting!
