What Goals Have You Set For Yourself – That You Would Like To See Come To Fruition; In The Year 2007?

i have set a goal to build up my savings,,, and to spend more quality time with my family and friends,,,,, it was going good,, till this last month, when i had unexpected medical expenses and switched jobs and so had a delay in pay,
i have alot of good things in life, relationships etc,, but i am not always financially responsible, i work hard, yet i spend in ways that i have decided do not meet my needs,,,,,, for instance, money for convenience foods instead of saving it for a trip to the beach
but also, i have to balance this with the rest of my life,,,,, in my old job, i often worked day and night,,,, it was meeting my money goal, yet i would go days sometimes without seeing my family, enjoying life,,,, being outside, playing with the dog etc
as to the lengths i will go,,,,,, the first step was changing jobs, it was a hard and scary decision to make,,,, with my new job, i often leave for work at 2 or 3 am, and dont get home till 5 or 6 pm,,,, but i am making more money per hour, and home at night and weekends, but my salary is actually less due to no overtime, less hours etc, so i have to cut corners in other places. Its hard, after sometimes a 12 or 14 hour day,, or longer, to come home, pass up the fast food and takeout places,,,,,, spend time with my family, cook dinner,,, etc,,, knowing i have about 7 or 8 hours till i have to be up for work again,,,,,,, but i am doing it,,,,,

I want to finish my CD & sell it. Keep writing songs and performing. Paint more, show my work more & sell more paintings. Do more landscaping, expand my garden, have stone steps at the front, build steps and a patio at the back. Perhaps finish my basement.
I’d like to lose 10 lbs, to exercise more, be more fit and toned. I want to start hiking again and doing yoga.
I want to spend more time with my boyfriend. To continue to learn about each other and nurture the relationship.
On a more intangible level, I’d also like to be more positive, to stop comparing myself to others, to be happy with who I am…
I guess I better get busy & start working on these things! Only 7 months to go!

My goal was to have a baby…. and in August that will be achieved!

This year I will finish my Masters Degree and finish a documentary film. I am completely driven to complete all goals that I set. Any goal that costs someone else pain is tainted. You can accomplish a lot with out stepping on anyone. I need to constantly need to balance my work so has not to cause my husband and son any difficulty.
My dream is to finish renovating my crazy old house that is falling around my ears bit by bit……..
