Goals for the Coming Year

Yes, another post about goals and the new year.

So the holidays are come and almost gone, and I’ve enjoyed this season, even though it’s flown by. Now it’s time to think about the coming year. I never make resolutions—I plan out goals. Resolutions are usually pie-in-the-sky, never-kept dreams. I don’t dream so much as I envision and put into action.

This coming year, I have several personal/professional goals I have been working toward:

·         To keep on my low-carb eating plan and workout schedule. To increase the working out gradually.
·         To decrease the amount of time I spend online just frittering away time. I have a heavy schedule this year for work, and I can’t afford to spend much time on Twitter or FB. So you’ll see me briefly on Twitter now and then, and you’ll see more of my moderators—Jenn and Phil—on FB. They’ll be there to announce things, answer questions, etc. On the other hand, I will be attending three major conventions/conferences, and having 1 or 2 local signings.
·         To get my fan site up on my website. There will be a lot of fun things on it for you guys. I'm also trying to boost my career to the next level, so thinking about how to do so.
·         To keep to a sane, consistent blogging schedule. No more every day attempts. No more weeks between blogs. Overall, I’m going to try for two blogs a week (besides the comic announcements), one here, and one on my Fire & Ice blog that I share with Anya Bast.
·         To attend to my spiritual/magical practices. I’m back to working with a group and it feels wonderful. I need to focus on my spiritual and magical sides more consistently.

Other than that, I’d like to read a few more books this year (sigh, I always seem to be too tired to read), and spend more time hanging out with friends and my husband and cats.

So, what are your goals? Not your resolutions, but goals that you truly think you’ll be able to achieve?
