Well, eventually my goals got filtered through a different perspective. I read some of Steve's stuff, namely The Power of Now and the Afternoon of Life, and I decided that having the best present moment I could have would help me attract what I wanted. And, you know, I really think it's worked to a minor degree-holding the state of happiness has gotten some small benefits to come my way already. For example, the idea to practice driving at my complex and span out didn't even OCCUR to me until I tried to hold the state of happiness and think constantly about what I want.

I think that keeping a blissful and peaceful present moment is good for me, and I want to keep doing it. However, having weekly and monthly sub-goals might be a good practice to make sure I'm on track. Just by attending to a subgoal once per day, I should be able to keep at a decent pace. I want simple and peaceful goal achievement, a la Zen Habits.

I guess I needed to hear that question, irritating as it was :V Now I've got a better idea on how to improve my progress.
