Nathan's Insights

Now that 2022 is here after the crazy rollercoaster years of 2020 and 2021 living with the COVID pandemic it is to be hoped that this situation now becomes more like a endemic situation i.e. contained to a degree or at least only expected cases but relatively mild.

Back in February 2019 I started a three year wealth plan and in February 2021 I added a one year health component.

While the health component was always needed it become urgent after a testing and depressing 200+ days in lockdown and working from home during 2020 that had some terrible physical and undesirable mental health outcomes.

These plans were finished both early and successfully. Now it’s time to consolidate and maintain strong forward momentum in 2022 and avoid going back to bad habits.

Well two months early I’m calling the wealth, weight and wellbeing plan that started in February 2021 finished and more importantly a success!

For background you can find the first check in here (15 April 2021), the second here (25 June 2021), the third here (02 September 2021) and fourth here (13 November 2021).

I’ve now successfully completed the first 15 fortnights (of 26) of this years Wealth, Weight and Wellbeing Plan and I’m still very much on track even if the challenges are increasing.

You can find the first check in here (15 April) and the second check in here (25 June).

So yesterday as the conclusion of my second block of 5 fortnights or 10 weeks. I was full of optimism and created some additional plans back during the first review period in April some of which I failed to achieve.

However I did achieve my original goals, losing at least 1 kilo a fortnight and keeping to my very tight loan repayment schedule!
