I like to check in on my goals regularly to be sure that I’m making progress. (And also to make sure I haven’t forgotten any of them!) I’ve kind of been dreading it this time, because I don’t feel like I’ve made much progress, but we’ll see. In the second quarter of 2009, I’ve:

• Continued to contribute to my 401(k)
• Purchased stock each month

• Made progress on meeting my exercise goal
• Gotten a massage, brought home flowers, and tried something different each month
• Purchased a treasury bond
• Prioritized future projects and focused

I guess I’ve made more progress than I thought, but I still want to make more. I think I’d feel better if more of my goals could be completed in a shorter period of time, but they just don’t seem to work out that way since so many of them are ongoing, monthly things.
