Goals for Myself

Having goals is an important part of my life. I always want to be working toward accomplishing something in my life, otherwise I personally don't see the point. I have accomplished some big goals in my life so far such as buying a house, graduating from college, and having a full time job. I think sometimes life gets so busy just keeping up with day-to-day responsibilities, that it is easy to push of setting and achieving goals. For the last couple of years, whenever I would think of something I want to do in life, I would add it to an on-going note in my Blackberry. Some of these are easy things, others may take a life time to achieve. I thought I would share that list here. In no order:

Learn how to play chess.
Design and sew my own suit.
Bake a pumpkin pie using real pumpkins, not the canned pumpkin.
Sit as a Board of Directors for an important, nonprofit organization.
Attend a Bear's game at Soldier Field in the dead of winter.
Make spaghetti sauce from scratch using tomatoes from our garden.
Take ballroom dance lessons.
Adopt a habitat at the humane society.
See all 30 major league baseball parks.
Obtain a Masters degree.
Go to Disney World on Christmas Day

That is all I have for now.  I'm sure there are others I am not thinking of.  But I posted this blog in a page tab at the top of the blog so I have a place to add more goals and cross them off as they are achieved!

  1. Wow! You have some GOALS! They make mine look pitiful. Mine are things like "Go a whole day w/o feeling tired." "Survive teaching highschool to my son" "Survive RAISING my son!" and my biggie "Lose 50 lbs".

    My 2 big Wishes are to go on a Charles Stanley Cruise to Alaska and to own a nice camera like a Canon Rebel or such. But those are wishes and since we're always broke, I'm not getting my hopes up.
