January 2010 Goals

January 7th, 2010 · 8 Comments

If you read the blog last night, then you’ll know my goal of 2010 is to have more goals. I started the ball rolling with a list of yearly goals. But it would be too easy to say, oh make some goals for the whole year and check it in December and see how ya did. Nah, that’s not making a lifestyle change. So I added the monthly goals along with it. So every month I’m checking myself to make sure…well I’m in check! Continue the pattern to better myself and my business.

So let’s have at it. Here at the goals/tasks I want to get accomplished for the month of January 2010.

 

-                     Shoot twice in the United Worship Experience with the 5D

-                     Go to B&H photo in NYC

-                     Go on a date with my hubby

-                     Lunch with Laurie Mowen

-                     2 day turnaround for all proofs of a session, regardless of what day my shoot is on.

-                     Go on a train ride with my awesome son Colin for his birthday, and eat at Burger King for his special day.

-                     Take Paige Mowen on a photoshoot and teach her all I can about photography. Hoping to get her started in the dslr world. She’s already talented, wanna do my part to push her forward!

-                     Coffee at Port City Java with Lauren.

-                     Practice my guitar!! Rebuild those calluses.

-                     Get on the elliptical.

-                     Get to bed before 1 at least twice this month.

-                     Not burn my carpet anymore from our fireplace. To stop poking the fire so much!!

-                     Reconnect with old family members. Facebook is such a blessing sometimes. Found my half brother and sister. So looking forward to developing that relationship!

-                     Do something “wild and crazy” on my birthday. I’m thinking maybe a new tattoo?!

-                     Get glasses/contacts already!!!

-                     Really take time to appreciate January 31st. It’s not only Colin’s birthday, but it’s my special day, which is the day I was adopted. Take time to honor my parents, and the wonderful life and guidance they have provided me with.

-                     Learn a song on guitar just because. Not because we’re doing it in Encounter, but just for kicks.

-                     Vacuum

-                     Read “The Hobbit”

-                     Not upload a blog post without a picture!

 

Here’s to that last goal. . .I wish it were spring!!!
