Goals Galore!

Goals and More Goals

I thought I would do a Yakezie Roundup on Goal Setting for the New Year, with I hope, stinging commentary…Well, maybe not stinging, more like supportive. Well, maybe not supportive, how bout just a little commentary.

I  think it helps us formulate our own goals and plans when we see what others have done-how they go about their thinking and how they prioritize their own life.

Things have been so crazy for me recently:

  • Death in the family
  • Sister-in-law with a broken leg has joined the household in a wheel chair for a couple months
  • Son’s wedding
  • Sinus infection from Hell! (and since my Monistat samples haven’t worked, maybe I ought to see a real Doc!)
  • Christmas
  • My nurses personal finance course “The 5-A’s to Financial Health” launching right before Thanksgiving-(not too smart in retrospect….)

Soooo, I haven’t had time to do my own goal setting, so that will come soon!

Yakezie, The Best in Personal Finance Blogs, member Goal Posts!

Sam at Financial Samurai has a great list of plans for 2011. I too want to work on my writin, cause it ain’t too good.

Budgeting in The Fun Stuff, Crystal writes her goals in “S” fashion.  My readers will probably use another “S” word for my post when I get around to it…

GOAL! (by urban_data)

Buy Like Buffett- Mark hasn’t done a goal post, but I always love to learn about investing geniuses since I would love to be one-so I let this slide!!!

Flexo, at Consumerism Commentary has a well described  list of goals and resolutions. Good luck with the photography!

Frugal Zeitgeist- Forest has a Mom’s and Dad’s list!

Khaleef at Faithful With a Few, doesn’t do Resolutions-but did this New Year’s Round-up!

Free From Broke has suggestions for making goals come true in this first of a series of posts.  They are good!

Alan at Canadian Finance Blog reviews 2010 goals and sets new ones for this year.  Accountability!

Kay Lynn at Bucksome Boomer is going on an Alaskan Cruise, (paid for of course) as part of her goals.  I am not sure cruising and weight loss are compatible, but good luck!

My Journey To Millions-Evan has his goals going.   He has a lot on his plate…Focused Fatherhood being #1.

Lists of Goals

LIST (by Carissa C.C.)

Kevin At Invest it Wisely: Continues the same first letter lists as several other bloggers-That “S”  letter shows up again.

Ninja at Punch Debtis struggling over a big decision re work, so his goals are in flux. Good luck!

A Holistic Approach to New Years Goals for your reading pleasure at Money Reasons.

Daniel at Sweating the Big Stuff has plans to continue his great job of saving much of his income!

Len Penzo lets his Magic 8 Ball do his 2011 predictions!

I think that is enough of the goal setting list for today.  Don’t want to overwhelm you with too much to read…

Will continue this effort to get everyone’s goals included, and try to begin working on my own Goals and Predictions for 2011!

    Thanks so much for the mention! I am so sorry you’ve been having rough times. Here’s to a much better 2011!

      Hey Crystal, we have had a few challenges, but who doesn’t. Not looking for sympathy as much as explaining my decreased blog focus for the last couple of months!

      I echo your toast to a great 2011 for all!

    Hey Doc: Since this is a site for nurses…. I was just wonderin’: Why would you NOT go see an Advanced Nurse Practice nurse? A good NP would have you fixed up in a jiffy. Surely you believe us qualified? Don’t you? Just askin’.

    • Dr.Dean says:

      My former ANP was great. She worked with me for 15 years…I now have a PA associate who also helps me out.

      I am a big supporter of both!
      Thanks for caring!
