Back On Track Experiment – Day 14 – Update
Ok, so its been two weeks and I wanted to touch base and remain accountable to my goals for the year… Here goes.
1. Be the very best Dad possible for my darling daughters. – In progress, if you know what the details are in this area of my life.
2. Have more fun then I have had in any previous year to date. – I can do better here still.
3. Be in better health then I have been in any previous year to date. – Haven’t cut down smoking as much as I want too yet.
4. Maintain a daily meditation schedule to keep centered and keep a positive mental attitude. – Need to focus more on this one, having schedule issues (i’m sure playing World of Goo until 4 AM didn’t help)
5. Learn 13 new songs on the guitar. – Wow, I better get my but in gear here I haven’t even picked up my Guitar yet this year.
6. Become proficient in last years new programming language (Ruby) and learn one new language. This is on target, Smalltalk may be interesting except I don’t know which variant to look at yet … Will have to ask the guys.
7. Inspire as many other people to be the best that they can be, and inspire them to inspire others. – Not sure that I can measure this right now, let me know if i’m inspiring you
8. Produce and be a part of a successful and synergistic Master Mind group. – On track (although we missed our meeting on monday)
9. Post a new blog entry for every day of the year (minimum 300 words). and create a healthy subscriber base. Still going except my posts from Mac Journal don;t seem to be automagically posting the way they should be.
10. Launch the clothing line. – Haven’t touched on this yet this year (lowest priority at the moment).
11. Learn, Laugh, Live. – Needs more attention still.
12. Make a metric ass-load (technical term) of money. – My Phone Project may be getting a new breath of life, just need to do some research and/or get a VA to do the research for me (thanks go out to the 4 hour work week).
13. Be debt free before Jan 1 of 2010. – Still have no idea HOW i’ll pull this off, but i WANT too, so I think everything will be ok.
There are other things that have crept into my awareness that I want to accomplish, this year… Things like:
a) Be a better Freelancer and get more work (having so much work that I’m constantly having to turn down new stuff would be good (assuming that I can pick and choose the best projects to work on).
b) A minimum of a 30 day trial of the Polyphasic Sleep Pattern … I SO want to do this, I honestly think it makes so much more sense.
c) Develop the sleep logging app for Facebook, I think it would be a lot of fun.
…. Ok, thats enough for now.
