goals for the year 2008 January 28, 2008
I was reading a blog post on Get Rich Slowly and thought it'd be a good idea to put down my goals in writing too. All of these are measurable (so I know my progress) and have a deadline of Dec 31st, 2008.
My Goals
- Save $5,000 in my savings account and $2,000 in another investment
- Be healthier, lose 30 pounds
- Launch "eject", my GTD web application, and get a revenue of $300/mo
Save some money
I've been working full time for the past 7 months and I've saved up a miserable amount. I'm pretty ashamed of myself. My first goal will teach me better spending habits and a thing or two about investing my money.
Be healthier
I need to be healthier. Since I graduated, I stopped walking as much. Classes were spread far apart and I usually had them back to pack. Now, I'm pretty unhealthy. I have a 9-5 job and then I eat dinner and go to sleep. I'm hoping to eat healthier and get some exercise into my daily routine.
Launch Eject
Launching "eject" would be great. Eject is a web application I'm working on that I'll be selling as a self-hosted application. I'll have more details on that in a later post.
Just like J.D. from Get Rich Slowly, one month from now I'll be posting an update on the progress I'm making.
