Two Goals
Note: This post is over 3 years old. It may contain outdated information and broken links. Please temper your expectations accordingly.
I am going to try some goals again, in a format that is less ambitious and perhaps more realistic. I will put forth two - an ongoing goal for the next 30 days and a short term, one-time goal to accomplish in the next 30 days. This has several improvements over my last attempt:
- Smaller scale - more manageable and reasonable to achieve
- Definitive time scale - in 30 days, I wil know percentage of completion on the ongoing task, and whether the short-term goal has been achieved.
Both of these improvements will, I hope, help me be more accountable to myself.
And now, for the goals.
- Over the next 30 days, I will be awake by 6:00 am every day.
- Within 30 days, I will have moved into a residence West of Lake Washington.

Instead of a post each day just about this (although I may roll it into another post) I think I will post my prgress as comments, so it is all in one place…
