THREE WORDS THAT DEFINE ME IN 2012:

1. Balance:
* Allocate time to work/family/writing/etc and stick to the schedule
* Strengthen relationships
* Music performance once per week
* Be more focused leading worship

2. Body:
* Eat healthier and keep track of points
* Exercise daily
* Reach a body weight of 145 pounds by 12/31/12

3. Growth:
* Practice difficult music every day
* Grow the business to 400 students
* Grow my repertoire of original music
* Grow my portfolio of in-progress and complete written works

For scheduling: Outlooks, Yahoo Calendar or Excel?

Health goals
Weight: 175
Exercise: Yesterday, yes. Today, pending.
Yesterday's points: 39. Way too high, but at least I kept track. Better today.

Writing goals
Profile 4 Characters: Scheduled mornings at 750 Words.
Rewrite one short story: Scheduled Wed.
Review 1 hour: Scheduled Thu.
Revise one song: Scheduled Fri.
Every Monday, I'll establish this list. Throughout the week, I'll report on progress against the list.

Work goals
Reach 400 students at MTMS  Open in new Window. by 12/31/12: 230.5
Blog at MT.com  Open in new Window.: Pending.
Year-end closeout: PENDING (tax payments/filings; W2s/1099s; accounting fixes - Dec payroll, bonus, other earnings, inventory; and close books.)
Tidy up post-remodel: Scheduled today. It's almost ready.
Sign-in process for students: In progress.
Judge Ohio Idol videos: Pending.
The first two goals are fixed. I'll continue to keep a daily log of our current student load for future statistical purposes, and I'd like to go back to blogging once per week. The rest of the goals will be established on Monday. As you see above, I did schedule this list for the week... but I've already broken my Balance rule, because I logged in and did some work (on "Sign-in process") while creating this list. Then I logged back out! Go me.

Church goals
I almost hate to publish goals here, because it won't change much. It's more critical that I stick to allocated time on my schedule.

Music Log
Yesterday, I practiced: Nothing! And I was at the studio!
Yesterday, I listened to: Saturday, I listened George Thoroughgood "One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer." To clarify this goal, it doesn't count if I listen to a song while writing or doing something distracting. I'm supposed to listen to the song. I noticed the guitar strum pattern in Bourbon.
This week, I performed at: None yet, scheduled Friday at Senor Patron.
Songwriting progress: None yet.
Here I'll keep track of my daily and weekly music-related goals. Each day, I'd like to practice a difficult piece - on voice or any instrument - and listen to one new song for inspiration and ideas. I'm always taking suggestions! Drop your links in the comment box.

Ad hoc goals
I allocated time for non-MTMS email (mostly church and personal); Yahoo articles; Facebook; Pinterest, etc. The goal is to stick to the schedule!
