Checking on my goals for the year

August 01, 2007 // 0 Comments  // Add yours »

I'm at home sick today.  Woke up and felt like crap so I decided it would be a good day to call out and catch up on some rest. 

And since I have nothing new to post I've decided to go back and review the goals for 2007 that I posted at the beginning of the year.  It's been about 4 months since I last checked it.  A few things have come off the list and a few things have been added.  I've crossed off the ones I've succeeded in, and I've made comments on most of the others.

  1. Travel to Peru - Scrapped.  Ireland instead.  Peru comes next year.
  2. Eliminate credit card debt - 50% of the way there.
  3. Reduce all other debt - Comes next.
  4. Get a gym membership
    1. Go consistently until late spring -
    2. Go consistently again in the winter
  5. Improve my photography - I can't really measure this, but I think I'm slowly getting better.
  6. Meet Brian Wilson - still not sure how, but there's half a year ahead of me.
  7. Spend a weekend in California - in the plans.
  8. Spend a weekend somewhere in Europe - next week I'll be in Ireland.
  9. Find more friends with common interests - Done.  But I'm not ready to cross this off yet.
  10. Strengthen the friendships that already exist - A few steps forward and few steps backwards.
  11. Learn about wine  
  12. Get paid to design and develop websites 
    • Promote with a separate website. - Being worked on now.
  13. Continue my education at SCSU - Glad to be back but I can't wait to finish.  So much stress.
  14. Find 4 new interests or hobbies
  15. Read more books (at least 1 a month) - July=Wikinomics....
  16. Meet Sir George Martin
  17. Start doing community service again
  18. Get to know some Black Rock locals - I succeeded, then moved away.
  19. No fast food - Very difficult living in Fast Food Valley.
  20. Eat more veggies, and enjoy it.  - Failed. See above. Will try again.
  21. Be earning 20% more by the end of '07 than I was at the beginning of the year - I hope.
  22. See Spamalot on Broadway - In September.
  23. Stop whistling when I have nothing to say to somebody that I don't know that well  
  24. Revise this list every few months and check progress. - 50% done.
  25. NEW - Learn to play guitar.  - Started mid-July, slowly making progress but keeping at it.
  26. NEW - Cross off two items on my To-Do-List posted on the right hand side of this blog.
