For Real This Time

9 Jan

Earlier I started talking a little bit about the things that I wanted to do now that I’ve finally graduated. That was basically a mini-look into what I want to do in the next year of my life.

Everyone has resolutions for the new year and taking a look at last year’s, I did like none of them. I think I failed miserably for a combination of two reasons: getting married and unrealistic goals. Getting married took up a big chunk of time. If I had to do it over again, I wouldn’t change a thing, but I’m simply recognizing the fact that I kind of got busy and other things had a larger priority. Setting goals is always important, but it’s even more important to remember to set goals that are actually attainable.

So baring any unforeseen, new marriages I’d like to set out a few, more realistic, goals that I’d like to achieve for 2010.

  1. Play more guitar
  2. Take more pictures
  3. PRAY MORE
  4. Save more money toward a house
  5. Read through the New Testament
  6. Run a 10k road race in under 40 minutes
  7. Start my freelance development
    • Finally pick a design and stick with it for my personal site
    • Create the lunch site as a stand-alone application
    • Develop the poker site
    • Challenge the cooking site
  8. Finish the poems I started
  9. Visit another country
  10. Buy a car
  11. Put lots of pennies in the jar

Well, here’s to twenty ten being a great year. Cheers.
