Goal update and a few links

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!) In the first quarter, I’ve:

  • Made regular contributions to my Roth IRA (although not nearly large enough contributions)
  • Continued to contribute to my 401(k)
  • Purchased stock each month
  • Paid extra on our mortgage each month
  • Continued tracking and evaluating expenditures
  • Continued saving for vacations & irregular expenses
  • Increased my donations to charity
  • Filled out the 4-Hour Work Week’s Dreamline worksheet
  • Made progress on meeting my exercise goal
  • Gotten a massage, brought home flowers, and tried something different each month
  • Launched my new business (although not yet my new product, which is kind of key)

Overall, I’m happy with my progress so far. There are a few goals that I haven’t done anything on yet, but that will be remedied. Soon, I hope. The most important thing that I’ve done wasn’t even listed as a goal, but that was getting a handle on how much time things really take and reducing procrastination.
