GoalDiggin’: My Goals For January 2013

I’m a bit late with this post because one of my main goals was getting the new site up and running! Now that it’s checked off my list (see my announcement here) I can focus a bit on other projects!

Let’s see how I did in December:

•  Finish the second article for my thesis (yes, my advisor wants me to write 2 articles. Every other grad student only writes one. Gah!) Nope, haven’t even started. 
• Create 2013 strategies for my social media clients. Done! 
• Find 1 new sponsor for YML, a company that can work with me on my passion of helping young moms finish school. Done! 
• Spend the last week of the month RELAXING. This might actually be the hardest item on the list.  Done! 
• Write down my personal goals for 2013. What kind of woman do I want to be once 2014 rolls around? I might make a vision board if I get some inspiration. I made a vision board but still need to write a post about it. Here’s a sneak peek. 
• Do one “crafty” project for our bedroom. It is, as it always is, a mess in our bedroom. I’m hoping once I’m done with school and I’m not just plopping into bed each night, that I can make it more of a sanctuary. I’ve got my idea on this semi-inexpensive project I saw on Pinterest. I did attempt that project and while it didn’t come out like I thought it would, it’s decent enough that I might post on it later.

Overall, I didn’t do too bad! That darned thesis article is going to be the death of me next week. Ugh. Moving on…

Here are my goals for January:

• Get my daughter to the allergist to see what foods she might be allergic to. *sigh* 
• Write two chapters of my next book.
• Set up a new budget for 2013.
• Conduct the first “Blog Write Now” webinar of 2013.
• Purchase a desk for my office.

I’m trying not to stress myself out these days, so I think this list is pretty doable. The allergist appointment is already set, I’ve putting the finishing touches on the webinar…yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and call January a success already.
