2016 Resolutions

My 7th Annual New Year’s Resolutions: The Interactive Edition

Where personal goals meet web development creativity

For my seventh consecutive year of publishing New Year’s resolutions, I decided to shake things up. Instead of my usual text-based article format, I challenged myself to create something more dynamic and engaging: a custom interactive PHP page that tracks my goals throughout the year.

This project served a dual purpose. First, it helped me visualize and track my personal goals for 2016 in a more engaging way. Second, it gave me a chance to practice my web development skills, combining design and functionality into something both useful and (hopefully) visually appealing.

Why I Create Annual Resolution Posts

These annual resolution posts have become a tradition for me over the years. They help me:

  • Reflect on what I truly want to accomplish
  • Create public accountability for my goals
  • Track my progress throughout the year
  • Look back on my journey from year to year

Moving to an interactive format makes this process even more engaging for both me and my readers. You can see my progress in real-time, rather than just reading about my intentions at the start of the year.

I hope you enjoy exploring this interactive resolution tracker as much as I enjoyed creating it! Have you tried any creative ways to track your own goals? I’d love to hear about them in the comments below.
