My goals last year were relatively unsuccessful, despite being unambitious:

3BLD: average sub-1:30
Multi: 10/10
OH: NR

3x3: get my Roux faster than my CFOP again

I feel like I'm starting to take cubing a bit more seriously than previously, and I'm starting to practise more events, so despite the lack of success last year I'll set some harder goals:

2x2: Sub-2.5 official average
3x3: Sub-10 official average, break PB single
4x4: Sub-40 official average
5x5: Sub-1:30 official average
3BLD: Global sub-1:30, finish writing Orozco tutorial
OH: NR average, national champion
Clock: Sub-10
Mega: Official average
Multi: 6 points

podium at euros again (either 6x6, feet or mega)
MAYBE go to US nats 2018, this would be awesome
2x2 single WR to I can become a platinum member (need that WR)
have fun at my future comps and don't care that much about results at comps besides Euros, just keep my PB streak ongoing which is at 22 now but gets harder when I get so many overall PBs at comps hehe

:D
