1. Eat only healthy, organic, vegan food BY December, 2008. (right now I am a vegetarian). So this will be a step-by-step process till December.
2. Fitness: I want to do resistance training and also enroll in a program like Yoga, pilates or tai chi. I won't start until at least June or so.

-Spiritual/ Mental. I want to feel good about myself. Increase my confidence. I want to change my thinking patterns to a more positive state. (already started working on this). From a 3/10 to a 7/10.

-Socializing. This is another goal. I want to create good friends that are on my vibrational frequency.

If I could describe 2008 in one word, It would be "Stabilizing".
moved 2000 miles - check
Doing Yoga - check

Currently working on confidence: thoughts and beliefs.

Keep going everyone! Keep on keepin' on!

Default Goal Achievement Support Group

Hi everyone,
I haven't had time yet to read all the posts in this thread, so my first goal is to read all the posts in this thread!

My name is Jim, I am 48, live in St. Louis, I made an intro post in the General section. I think this is a tremendous site and I plan to use it to log my progress on my goals on a daily basis. I will make a concerted effort to support others who wish to do the same.

My first goal is to obtain my life/ health insurance license by June 3rd. I am currently working as a courier, making about 80 percent of my previous salary as a computer programmer. My plan is to study while I am making deliveries, I have printed out my study materials. Then when I get my license my plan is to do lead follow up and other marketing activities while I am driving. I will make sure that safety comes first. Good to be here and I look forward to achieving goals with you!

Default figuring this site out

I am still a novice when it comes to posting websites but hopefully I will make progress. I am impressed with the level of difficulty of the material I am studying for my insurance exam, it is taking longer than I thought it would. But I am sticking with it, and I hope to have my license by the first week of June. I will be able to spend more time on this site now that Lost season finale was broadcast! Good luck!

Default I am still learning this site

But that will be a good experience for me. I did make progress toward my goal of getting my life/ health license by June 3rd but I will need to raise my effort level to meet this goal. I hope to respond to some posts this weekend.
Take care Jim

My goals that I wrote for the start of the year was to finish my two adult access courses, do the exams, update my CV, find a job, exercise every day and indulge in more creative writing and other creative pursuits.

So far the only thing that is left is to find a job, and that brings with it new goals

Although my new goal for the year is to finally figure out what degree to study at university.

This must be the most inspiring thread I've seen this year, but I'm new to this forum so...

Anyway, my goals for this year is to root out the insecurities and bad thought patterns, learn to think in a whole new way and find the excitement in life that I lost back in 1999.
So far my depression is nearly gone and I've got almost the best possible internship there is. So 2008 has gone really well so far!
