2013 in review and 2014 goals

It's hard to believe, but the year is over, so I figured it's time to look at my goals and see how I really did this year.

2013 Goals:
1. Blog four times each month: 6 months of 4 posts, 2 months of 1 post, 2 months of 2 posts and 1 month of zero posts, therefore total of 30 posts for the year
2. Complete 3 course toward Fundraising Certificate: have completed 5 courses
3. Write a minimum of 15,000 words a month.: By the end of the month my total word count for the year exceeded 180,000 words which is 15,000 words a month
4. Take time for myself on a regular basis: still working on this but getting better.


2014 Goals
1. Blog four times each month
2. Complete remaining 2 courses of Fundraising Certificate
3. Write a minimum of 15,000 words a month
4. Take time for myself on a regular basis 
5. Get home office area organized

Yes, some of my goals are the same in 2014 as I want to get into the habit of writing and making sure that I have things on my blog more often.

Of course, they will be other things that I accomplish in this coming year because some of these goals will lead into other things.

2013 Goal review - midpoint

It's hard to believe, but the year is half over, so I figured it was time

2013 Goals:
1. Blog four times each month: 4 months of 4 posts and 2 months of 1 post each
2. Complete 3 course toward Fundraising Certificate: have completed 2 and currently taking 2 more
3. Write a minimum of 15,000 words a month.:  have writing lots and as of June 30 have exceeded the 15,000 per month total
4. Take time for myself on a regular basis: still working on this

I am working hard on my writing, and I want to ensure that I am getting into the habit of writing most days.  In May, I was very happy because I only missed writing one day that month.  Some months have been better than others, but at least I can say that overall, I have exceeded 15,000 words a month.

Now to see if I can get my blogging up to 4 posts a month.

Goal setting and goal review

It's hard to believe that 2012 is over, and a new year has started.  It's now time to review my 2012 goals and set some new goals for 2013.

2012 Goals:
1.  Blog four times each month - didn't achieve this
2.  Write content for company website - tried to do this and ended up with draft items
3.  Achieve CAPM - achieved February 2012
4.  Learn to take time for myself - ongoing

2013 Goals:
1. Blog four times each month
2. Complete 3 course toward Fundraising Certificate
3. Write a minimum of 15,000 words a month.
4. Take time for me on a regular basis.

My goals this year a little different but of course there are some courses involved just like last year.  I really enjoy taking different courses, so figured it was time to do something a little different.

Now to see how things go over the next little while.  I know that work is picking up for me, but I enjoy being busy, so that is fine with me.
