Resolution criteria

This market will resolve based on the occurrence of specific events or achievements in my life during the current year. Each option will resolve as follows:

  • Yes: The specified event or achievement occurs within the year.

  • No: The specified event or achievement does not occur within the year.

  • N/A: The option is ambiguous, unverifiable, or lacks clear criteria for resolution.

For example, if an option is "Run a marathon," it will resolve "Yes" if I complete a marathon this year, and "No" if I do not.

Background

Common personal goals that individuals set for themselves include:

  • Health and Fitness: Engaging in regular exercise, adopting a healthier diet, or achieving a specific fitness milestone.

  • Career Advancement: Pursuing a promotion, acquiring new professional skills, or changing careers.

  • Financial Objectives: Saving for a significant purchase, reducing debt, or investing in new opportunities.

  • Personal Development: Learning a new language, developing a hobby, or improving time management skills.

  • Social Engagement: Spending more time with family and friends, volunteering, or expanding one's social network.

These goals are often pursued to enhance overall well-being and personal satisfaction.

Considerations

  • Specificity: Ensure that each option added to the market is specific and measurable to facilitate clear resolution.

  • Verifiability: Options should be based on events or achievements that can be objectively verified.

  • Time Frame: All options should pertain to events or achievements that can reasonably occur within the current year.

@TheAllMemeingEye note that this is assuming you haven't already read any of them, if you have please edit the option to just the ones you haven't already

@HocusPocus straight as in raw and unwashed?

@TheAllMemeingEye It can be washed and cooked. But not seasoned.

Do you actively intend to do the remaining options? Have you ever done them before?

@TheAllMemeingEye I am currently Jewish. So I can’t convert.

@TheAllMemeingEye I can possibly do some. The fun about this is people can input things that I might do!

I have already read 3+ books in 2025!
