I’ve been thinking lightly about what I want to accomplish on this site in the New Year. Daniel Scocco’s Group Writing Project on Daily Blog Tips was a nice nudge to actually start sharing some of them.
It’s a bit challenging coming up with goals this year for next. Having baby #3 due in early February means I need to plan around that event, one that is certain to slow up my productivity. But I’ve done well in the past with a baby in the house, and I feel certain I can do it again.
I’m generally pretty ambitious in my goals. I don’t always reach them, but I keep on pushing. It’s just a matter of whether or not you let failing to reach your goals get you down or not. So long as I can achieve some of them, I’m generally feeling pretty good. If I understand the obstacles I have yet to overcome on the ones I didn’t reach, I’m also not in bad shape.
It’s all a learning process, after all.
- Reach 500 RSS subscribers to this blog .
- Build overall income to $5000/month across all sites. I’ve nudged this one many times in the past. I’d like this to be the year I stabilize it.
- 5 posts per week per blog for my 2-3 best sites.
- Average one article submission per day. I’ve managed this off and on in the past. Once again, just something I need to stabilize.
- Write at least 1 new ebook. I have about 5 ideas sketched out, so this is a matter of picking one and making the time.
- Generally get better at networking. I’m still the quiet sort in so many ways.






You inspire me. Seriously. There’s so much hype around making money online and you seem to be doing it with hard work and dedication.
To me, that’s the best way to do it. It’s not easy, it’s not a shortcut, it’s up to me.
Nice set of goals for 2009 that you have. I also created a goals for 2009. I hope to check most of them off at the end of 2009. Thanks Greg Ellison
