Goals for 2011

This is the last day of 2010. The last day of the new millennium. It has been a very interesting year for me. I graduated with my Masters of Social Work. I was cheated on. My love (not the one who cheated) came back into my life and left and came back (and left). I fussed and fought with my parents.  I struggled financially. I moved to a new city/new state. I did some other things....

As I reflect on what I did or didn't do in 2010, I know I want to do more next year. A new year, a new life, new look, new love, new goals, new everything. Below is a list of the things I want to do in 2011. I don't believe in resolutions. I do goals because they seem more attainable and less disappointing if I don't succeed..

1. Write and publish a book
2. Learn how to play guitar
3. Go horseback riding
4. Begin locking my hair (I did a consultation earlier this month and decided I am going to keep my free standing fro)
5. Learn how to swim
6. Apply to a PhD program
7. Obtain a job in SW field utilizing the skills I've learned
8. Fall in love (mutual love- relationship)
9. Decrease my meat intake
10. Speak publicly
11. Answer my phone when it rings (I really do not like talking on the phone)
12. Increase my income by 135% ( I did the math, it's really not that much-believe me) 
13. Begin exercising again (especially yoga and Zumba)
14. Really work on a side hustle
15. Volunteer more
16. Date more (variety of men)

These are some of the goals I have. ALL are attainable. I hope all of you are ready for the New Year. Leave the old stuff behind if it is not helping you get to that next level. Sadly, I have some people I need to leave behind. As I always say "I love me, more than I can ever love you". 

Anyways, I hope you all have a good year!! Enjoy yourself.
