2011 Goals Check-in

With the impending changes in my professional life, I wanted to take a look at where I stand with my 2011 goals.  There have been a few changes along the way, but I’m mostly on track for everything!

Financial:

  1. Save $15,000 or more in non-retirement funds  On target; I’ve saved $7,826 so far!
  2. Continue to save $650/month for retirement + employer contributions  Yes; every month
  3. Participate in mini-challenges aimed at various goals each month Yes; every month

Well-being:

  1. Establish, and maintain, appropriate boundaries with the people in my life  Yes; nearly a non-issue at this point! 
  2. Take time for me  Yes; doing very well despite working multiple jobs
  3. Stop apologizing for everything!  Yes; nearly a non-issue

Health:

  1. Bring back the six-pack abs  :)    Work in progress
  2. Maintain my running schedule   Work in progress
  3. Be the best rugby rookie this city has ever seen  No longer a goal; rugby is too violent to maintain my competitive running

Professional:

  1. Obtain additional work certs and pass the exams necessary to do so  No longer a goal; career change on the horizon

  4. Hang storm doors  TBC in July
  5. Re-finish porches  TBC in June

Miscellaneous:

  2. Buy a sweet camera and take photography classes  On hold given student loan pay-down efforts
  3. Continue to seek out the positive, celebrate the small things, and never, ever stop smiling  :)   Hell yeah!  :D
