Goals...
I'm not a huge fan of New Years Resolutions because I think if someone is
going to set a goal it should be when they are ready to and not just
because the date changes, but anyways, I'm looking at my finances and my
situation and setting some tentative goals. So I figured I'd share them
1. Credit Cards paid off by March 31st. This would effectively
take me out of debt - on paper. There's still a Legal Aid bill from my
divorce, but there is no interest charged so it can continue to be
paid off in pre-authorized payments. My car is in my name and registered to
me, but the loan is not - therefore it does not show up as
'my' debt.
2. 10% increase in income from writing. Rather than do 10% more,
I'm going to become more efficient (buying the laptop was a start) and more
effective (by charging more).
3. One more column. I have two: both horse related. I'd like to
develop one either online or in print that is not related to the horse
industry. Maybe writing related.
4. Finish 2 non-fiction books that are currently in the works and
start developing my fiction writing.
I think that is it. Not particularly lofty... not too low... juuuust right.
