Peter Saloom kicks off the episode with his 2024 goals for tabletop gaming. Jonathan discusses using the SMART criteria. SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-based. Jonathan’s goals serve as starting points to engage with larger change.
Pete’s Goal
- Double the number of hours spent gaming in 2024.
Jonathan’s Goals
- Find a good home for the Yamashiro Mountain Fort terrain (by Things from the Basement) by the end of 2024. If you’re interested in it, contact Jonathan.
- Jonathan wants to divest of tabletop gaming items that aren’t used or won’t be used. This will clear physical and mental space so that other projects can be accomplished.
- Bring my family to one gaming convention by June 2024.
- Jonathan’s girls are getting to be of the age where they’re interested in what their Dad does when Dad goes out to gaming events. This is an opportunity to expose them to new places, people, and hobbies that may be of interest to them. It also fits a core value of the podcast by attempting to grow the hobby.
- Play 1 solo wargame by Thanksgiving 2024.
- Jonathan has multiple GMT games still in shrink wrap. Many are from the P500 program. Instead of constantly purchasing new games, Jonathan wishes to play what Jonathan already has.
