Goals for 2008

it is something very hard to do, and it gets me when people just tell me to believe in mysel....

To believe in yourself means that you believe in what you, yourself, think and want to do is right. Your every desire, wish, hope, every feeling that you have is right. This means believing in yourself.

No-one knows you better than you do. So, no-one can -- strictly speaking --prescibe to you what you have to feel or think.

You can start by questioning yourself. Like, thinking "was that right what I just thought?" or "was that okay what I've done now?" and so on. From this, you can learn to understand yourself and what you want, so that you can say one day: "This is what I am. This is what I want."


To get back to the topic: I don't have any specific plans for 2008. I will take the year for what it is when it comes.
 
My goal is to knit at least one pair of socks every month in 2008 :)

I completed 11 pairs in 2007...maybe I should make it 15 socks for '08?
 
well there is always two ways to look at things...

i see things one way and when i voice those things about myself, i end up in arguments because others tell me that the way i see me is not correct...so maybe i should have said self esteem rather than self confidence...

I've got an awesome new assignment all lined up starting next month -- check this one off!
6. Start grad school or have a plan for it
Not yet, but it's still on my radar for this year.

Guess I'd better get a move on for some of these! :ut-oh: ...I wish I'd put skydiving on there so I could check it off.

UPDATE

1. i will reach my final weight/size goal
Well i am progressing towards the size 6/8 that i want

2. once my goal is reached weight/size wise i will work harder on the toning/fitness that i want to reach

I have started fitness training, lifting weights 3 days a week and toned alot in most places

3. I will concentrate on bettering my job

well i am helping my current boss get elected and rumor has it that i will first in line for his job if he wins in Nov
 
I did manage to wipe out all of my credit card debt.
The only debt I now have is from a home equity loan, which will be eliminated when we sell the house and move, which still hasn't happened, but we've actually moved some stuff over to the new place, so let's call that one "in progress".
 
:eek: MOMENT OF TRUTH :eek:

how'd you guys do?

6. Start grad school or have a plan for it
1. well, i think i'll take 50% on this one. i haven't improved my running as much as i'd like to have, and i don't actually have that 100 in the books yet, but i've made huge progress in lots of other fitness areas and i'm way ahead of where i was last year (or probably ever).
2. erm, nope.
3. yes, debt is under control. it's just going to take a while. sigh.
4. i don't want to talk about it :tongue:
5. done! and "career decision" right now means "stay in the air force", and i'm ok with that.
6. well, my plan is to start in the spring. that counts, right? nothing's official yet.
