The Chiefsplanet 2013 Life Goal/Special Project Thread

[Rain Man]

In my "How was your 2012" thread, it seemed like the most common areas where we didn't make personal progress last year were meeting life goals, completing special projects, and improving inner peace and happiness.

Well, we can't do much about the inner peace and happiness issue, but maybe we can do something along the lines of the fitness thread related to special projects and life goals.

If you want to participate, list 1 or 2 or 3 things you hope to accomplish this year. They can be as humble or as grand as you like, but you'll be responsible for meeting them here. Maybe we'll do one of those little thermometer things to measure our total progress.

As for me, my goals are:

1. Lose 15 pounds and run a marathon.
2. Get Sandbox Simulations launched commercially and begin making revenue.
3. Get a rough draft of a book completed. (Not sure if fiction or nonfiction at this point.)
4. Reach a particular revenue goal in my company (confidential, but I can update based on percentages).

1. Log 1,000 miles on my bike. Should be pretty easy to accomplish as long as my bad knee holds up.
2. Lose 25 lbs. Fulfilling objective #1 should take care of that.
3. Build the media/hobby center in my basement that I've been planning for years. This one is the longshot that has me worried.

Hmmm...funny how much things can change in 6 months.

1. Due to the weather taking forever to warm up this spring I am way behind on the miles, and I also changed jobs a couple months ago and I now have a more demanding on-call schedule so the outlook is not real good to hit 1,000.

2. I gained another 10 lbs by being out of work the entire month of March, so I am behind schedule on this one as well.

3. Don't see this one happening at all since it's looking like I probably won't be in my current house for more than another year or so.

1. Check
2. Check
3. Improvement with further growth in 2014

Learned a lot about myself and my values in 2013 and I'm ready to flourish in 2014.
