this year, i set some goals for myself... to motivate me, and keep me going.
here's how i'm faring so far.
1. to seriously research a get away in India that will help me with my back pain.
research
flight booked
trip taken
writing completed
2. to focus 25% of my attention on building my jewelry and online brand.
3. to hold 3 shows in the year 2012.
Show #1
Show #2
Show #3
4. to submit one piece of writing a month, to an online publishing site.
january 4 down - 2 published here and here! // february // march // april // may // june // july // august // september // october //november // december
5. to write every day. about something. anything.
see new blog - when she wrote a tragic love story. My experiment in 365 days of writing.
6. to get my jewelry in at least 1 shop this year. yippee! completed as of January of this year. thank you birthia for taking my jewelry in.
7. to save 25% of my net income every month, to pay off debt, and save for travel.
8. focusing more on me. making decisions for my happiness - and no more doing things, saying yes, making plans for everyone else's happiness. example: i was asked by a coworker to go for drinks the other night, after work... and, though i wanted to, i said no, so that i had time to go grocery shopping, and write. seemingly insignificant, i know. but worth the early bed time, and the money i saved.
9. to craft once a week. and focus on giving only handmade gifts.
10. to stop comparing myself to others. to ignore numbers on everyone else's etsy, blog, etc. and focus on the depth and work i am producing in my own life. and to garner happiness from those individual things.
