I really don't like the word "resolution," but I'm a big believer in making short and long term goals. We should all makes goals and take baby steps to meet them. Whether you're a long distance runner who needs to work harder to make better time in a marathon or a writer who wants to advance in their chosen career.
I was amazed at the number of total page views I received at Y!CN in 2010. What these numbers told me is (1) I'm doing something right, and (2) I can do better. Sure, it's going to take some work, but that is what goals are for.
My goals are few and very simple. They don't necessarily mean anything to most, but I thought I would put them out there - make myself accountable.
My Writing Goals for 2011:
1. 500,000 plus page views for the year
2. Become a PV Millionaire
3. Reach Clout 10 by Spring
4. Apply for two more FC spots (I'm currently an A&E FC, but there are other areas that interest me)
5. Take on more Yahoo! TV and OMG! assignments and really put forth a lot of effort writing them
6. Continue working on my book
7. Mentor other writers if they need help with something I know a thing or two about
8. Get better organized (time management, work more at my desk vs. in the living room, etc.)
How about you? Do you have any goals for the New Year? Feel free to share them in the comments section.
