Goal Shifting

While reading over my 2008 goals last night, I came to the realization that 2 of my goals (1 each of the regular and stretch) are no longer goals of mine. I just no longer desire to work on them. So, in order to have my environment reflect my reality, I am updating my 2008 goals appropriately.

Regular Goals --

Personal: Learn to snowboard with enough proficiency that I can tackle a green trail by 31 Dec 2008. (Success)
Personal: Accumulate $20,000 in emergency funds by 31 Dec 2008. (Success)
Personal: Achieve $150,000 in net worth by 31 Dec 2008.
Personal: Save $15,000 for a house down payment by 31 Dec 2008.
Personal: To find and accept an offer on a new, rewarding and fulfilling job by 29 Feb 2008.
Business: Unwind my real estate investing partnership by 30 Jun 2008, including all asset sales.
Business: Hand off my consulting customers to responsible, attentive, competent person with high integrity by 30 Apr 2008.
Business: To ship a prototype of our application running on Windows Mobile and the iPhone by 30 Sep 2008.

Stretch Goals --

Personal: Read 50 books by 31 Dec 2008.
Personal: Accumulate $30,000 in emergency funds by 31 Dec 2008.
Business: To have a beta release of our application running on Windows Mobile and the iPhone by 31 Dec 2008.

As you can see, successful goal completions are identified in blue text. My mobile software idea is a much lower priority for me right now, so I have struck through the 2 goals related to it. However, I do have a new fixation, software-wise, and I plan to work on that opportunity more and the mobile device software less.

That's all for now. Peace!
