MBN Group Writing Project: How are Those 2008 Goals Going?
It’s near the end of January. Most of the holiday decorations are down now, work is back in full force again, and tax season is just around the corner.
It’s also been almost a month since the beginning of the year, and almost a month to begin working on making some of those 2008 goals you made in December 2007 a reality. You do remember those goals you made, don’t you?
It’s no secret that the large majority of New Year’s Resolutions aren’t kept long enough for the resolver to see their positive effects. Depending on whom you talk to or which statistic you believe, one-half to four-fifths of resolutions don’t make it past the end of January! Or even if you don’t call them “resolutions,” the steps that you said you’d take to reach your goals might have already lost some steam.
That’s why we’re doing an MBN Group Writing Project on this subject. We’ll be posting on various aspects of this subject today; some of us may do a brief report on how we’re progressing toward our goals. We may even reach out and pick on a few other bloggers who’ve set goals for themselves to see how they’re doing! The whole purpose is to remind ourselves of where we want to go this year, and to try to nudge ourselves toward making all of those great things happen!
