Last year I set some goals for myself so I figured I had better fess up and see what I actually accomplished.
I’m rating myself with a stoplight system for lack of a better way.
This is my 2010 list:
ART:
- learn to knit –-Need more practice but have the concept down
- use the supplies I have instead of buying new –-only purchased garage sale/thrift store supplies
- finish my circles quilt –DONE
- open an Etsy shop –open, stocked and have made 2 sales!
- complete my Nature altered book –not yet but am getting closer
- Be Creative Every Day –-it’s not always art but I feel I do something creative most days
SELF:
- get back to eating healthy –the holidays have been a set back
- get back to my exercise routine –not at the level I want to be…goal needs to continue for sure.
HOME:
- paint the kitchen cupboards –nope
- plant more veggies –Yes..will plant more next year
- de-cluttter in prep for a monster garage sale –YES! huge sale
- repurpose and recycle more –hard to measure this one but I think I have
I must be a glass half-full kind of person because I see the goals that I haven’t quite met not as failures as some would but as stairs I have climbed on my way to the goal.
Over all I’m glad I made this list. Obviously, I didn’t do everything I wanted to but really…who does? I’m going to think about my goals for 2011 now. I think accountability is a great motivator.
