2010 Goals
So this year I decided to do my goals a little differently. I have decided to come up with a few goals under each of the following categories: financial, physical, intellectual, spiritual, parental, and relationship. This means that I have a few more goals than last year, but I like to have them categorized so that I can feel more balanced in my life. Hopefully, I will continue to have success throughout this year. I have been working on some of these things this week and have surprised myself with how well I'm doing. I still find it rather tricky to find just the right balance between all the different areas, but I am trying. Some days I do better in one area than another only to find that the next day it is just the opposite. Maybe one of these days I will be able to find the perfect balance for my life.

Comments
I'm working on whittling my list to three. My issue is its hard to make goals measurable. Like how do you know you've become more kind? If you figure out a way to measure increasing one's energy level let me know.
