I have recently joined a group/contest about goal setting to help inspire me to stay on track this year.  I have made the list and am plugging away at the goals I listed.  Problem is I have found that I have more to do than what I have time for.  This leads me to try to prioritize my goals.  So the big question is which is more important, to finish a chapter or to write a query; and which query do I start with.  Some of my goals are easily met, others will take some diligence by me to complete.


So today I am able to look at my list of goals posted in multiple places to determine what I have yet to accomplish.  I have started a million things but finished nothing.  I have worked on things that are not on my list and have gotten off track.  So today I will refocus my energy and strive to complete the list above with grace and fortitude.  I actually had six goals and added a seventh so I would not forget about that as well.  I have decided I need to create two lists, current goals and future goals.  That way I can put the most pressing goals in one list and help me keep the focus on priority.





Wish me luck. :)
