It's personally motivating to see other people get goals as well as achieving them myself and I love seeing people get goals. From my point of view, goals are great.

I'm happy to say that I got all of my planning done for the year (obviously to be reviewed and updated on a regular basis - at least monthly). The trick now is sticking to the plans and following through! Thanks to everyone who shared your January goals! I hope you’ll come back to post an update!

It's great to have resolutions, and I made one of my own about 2 weeks ago that I haven't fulfilled as yet ― to design my own printed marketing campaign for local business's. Think I'll start tonight! I, like yourself, often go a couple of weeks without blogging. I've found that 2009 already is a demanding year. <abbr><em>Andrew Kelsalls last blog post..<a href="http://www.andrewkelsall.com/the-professional-designers-guide-to-using-black/" rel="nofollow">The Professional Designers Guide to using Black</a></abbr></em> Great article Selene.

What you wrote about this goal is an accurate description of my situation (right down to writing posts every 2-3 weeks and the need to do better for my rising subscriber numbers) - Plan my weekly schedule, working out dedicated times for marketing, bookkeeping, working on personal illustration projects and blogging - Map out a timeline for redesigning my website, which will happen in 2009. It's a big undertaking, so I know I will need to set specific goals and attach deadlines to them. Good luck with the work on your own goals, Selene - especially number 3. <abbr><em>Tracey Gradys last blog post..<a href="http://www.traceygrady.com/more-fantastic-illustration-resources" rel="nofollow">More Fantastic Illustration Resources</a></abbr></em> Bearing in mind that we’re already more than halfway through January, my goals are:

Google Calendar is perhaps my favourite little keep-track device - for now. Like yourself, I'll be using mainly Google Calendar and a desktop planner to keep things organized. Goals for this month was to have a set and organized self-promotional 'feel' created and established, and with a logo, resume and portfolio (mostly) out of the way, with half the month left I only have my website and other web bits and pieces to go - right on track! Looking forward to more postings.
