Resolved.

Taking it to 11.

We planned to work on goals for our first FHE of the new year. I decided to grab the bull by the horns and get mine ready. First, a look back at last year's goals. How did I do? Of the 10 that I had, I completed 4, made good progress on 4 and totally bombed on 2. I'll give myself a B- (I'm an easy grader - it's a good thing that I don't have to grade very much of Daniel's schoolwork).

Not only did I type up 10 (new and recycled) goals, but I made up a weekly tracking page (yes, I like quantifiable goals - none of those "be a better person" goals for me), printed them up 4 to a page, cut them, and bound them in a book. It may only be a pathetic attempt to fool myself into thinking that they are more official...but hey, I'll take any advantage I can get.

Viva la revolution!

Just make sure that you don't loose your new book on top of your desk. :)

"No coasting" is merely the theme this year. I plan to make a more detailed goal plan this week--no "going around the horn" because I missed New Year's day...

It is always nice to have those goals right in your face so you have to look at them at least once a day. I have mine next to my computer. I don't look to the left much after September...
