Progress Towards my Goals
I wrote about what I’m striving for in 2011 at the beginning of the year.
- Read more. <–Currently one my first book, The Jesus Inquest. Interesting … but over my knowledge
- Spend more time in personal reflection (focusing on where I’ve grown and where I can). <–haven’t had time
- Outreach more with my consulting. <– Had a business meeting and began outreach in the NY area
- Write. <– I finally began the fiction book I have talked about for two years
- Paint. <– I have an idea so now I just need to do it
- Take more photos. <– took a few that I need to post
- Join a club or recreational sports league. (dodge ball anyone?) <– Waiting for the Dodgeball team invite
- Cook. <– I’ve made two recipes from my new cookbook which I will write about next week
- Entertain. <– In February Nathanael and I hosted a small Super Bowl party and last week hosted an Oscar party. We have also attended a wonderful brunch.
- Ask questions. <– haven’t had time
Other Goals I’m Pursuing
- Speaking Clients – none
- Coaching Clients – none
- Secure an Agent – haven’t started
- Blog Post Frequency – Currently on pace
- Business Income – 3% towards goal
- Read 16 Books – Just started first book of the year
- Personal Savings Goal – Haven’t calculated
- Pay Off Student Loan – On pace
- Paint Six Paintings – Haven’t had time
- Attend 12 Networking Events – Attended a great networking event in Gramercy Park
- Take Photos Once a Month – Not as much as I would like. Hopefully I will now that the weather is changing
- Sell a Painting – not yet
- Start Volunteering – Found a cool Boys and Girls Club near our apartment, but haven’t heard back
- Make 52 new NYC Connections – Must update my tracking sheet
February was much better in terms of my progress towards my goals. I still have a long way to go, but finishing up a full-time contract, writing my latest book and putting together at least one job application a night, my time is very limited. Good thing is my focus is becoming clearer in relation to the career I would like to pursue.
