Keeping Track of Your Goals

Published by kohuether at 10:12 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Yesterday we talked about planning our schedules as a way to help us stay on track. I’ve learned the hard way that when I don’t plan, I don’t make money. But that is only one piece of the puzzle. I created this schedule because I have a goal of making $3000 this month. In order for me to reach that goal I need to keep track of several things:

  • How much I make
  • My Expenses
  • What I am doing with my time each day
  • Whether or not I am checking major projects off my to-do list

My goals are crazy. I still have a house to unpack. But I know I can do it if I just stay focused and keep track of everything. So far, I am further along in my goal than I thought I’d be at this point. Granted, my parents are coming to visit for the last two weeks of this month so hopefully I can do all the work I need to do before they get here.

Another thing I need to work on is getting out of bed early in the morning. My husband has eight o’clock classes. I can just get up with him and be a lot further along in my to-do list before the day even begins.
