2008 for me was all about reduction, trimming the fat. It was my best year yet. I got rid of a lot of excess crap and simplified my life and fattened my wallet as a result. My biggest mistake, however, was I did not hold myself accountable for any goals because… I had none.
2009 will be different. I’m starting this year by listing my goals and aspirations so that come December 31st I can measure my success (or lack thereof).
My Goal:
- Volunteer at least 4 times
- Quadruple the size of our Emergency Fund
- Take a 3 – 4week vacation on the west coast
- Buy a DSLR
- Win at least one photo contest
- Sell at least one photo
- Reduce my wardrobe by 25%
- See at least 25 sunsets and 25 sunrises
- Complete and release Mivity
- Work out at least 3 times per week for 30minutes at a time
- Finish the 1st floor of the house
Some of these are an extension of what I began last year. Others are brand new. I’m sure others will present themselves during the year.

That’s great Randy. Out of the goals listed, which do you feel will be the most challenging?

Actually I think the most difficult one to meet is working out at least 3 times per week. I’ve got the workout equipment at home though so hopefully I can stick with it.
