Tony’s 3 Yummy Goals for 2007
Posted on 02 January 2007
After lengthy thinking, I share with you my goals for 2007:
1. Read 1 book per month.
2. Double blog readership from 350 to 700 average unique hits/day.
3. 40 pushups per day.
Sound conservative? Indeed. But my hopes are to surpass these standards and to feel happy with myself when I do so. :) I’ll be sharing with you all the books that I read every month and the progress on my blog readership. As for the pushups, you’re gonna have to trust me on that one.
I encourage you all to set 3 yummy goals for 2007. Write your top 3 goals in the comments on this post. I will then follow-up with you on your goals every month to see how you are doing.
Let’s be even more awesome in 2007!

I’m going to stretch a little, but I have the following 3 blog goals:
1.) Leave at least 5 comments a day elsewhere.
2.) Reach the 100,000 total new visitors mark (currently at 14,000), need to get about 1700 visits a week (versus my current 1100).
3.) Become a LEED Accredited Professional (it’s a certification for green building professionals).
Good luck for 2007

Two starter books:
Running With Scissors - hilarious memoir about a young gay teen and his dysfunctional family, now a motion major picture
The Kite Runner - fictional novel about an Afghani boy growing up in pre-Taliban Afghanistan, great read and eye opener if you’ve never read about the region
These books are fast reads.

The one book a moth is a great idea. I think I will set it as one of my goals. BTW, I love the picture :)

Conservative’s good. Better that than try to swallow a whole melon at once.
My three:
- $100K in liquid value by August ‘07
- Lease home and move by mid-Feb ‘07 at the very latest
- Get freelance career successfully off the ground, no hands, by July ‘07

So glad one of your goals involves more reading!
My 3 Goals:
1) Contract for second novel
2) Maintain sanity during release period of first novel
3) Achieve financial freedom (or at least be able to pay for my health insurance…)
And I agree with Kevin’s book suggestions!

Great idea!
1. Read 1 article per day, finish 1 book per month, and read TIME cover-to-cover (+ other magazines) on the side
2. Exercise 3x a week (hopefully join an IM bball team, or tennis, surfing, gym…)
3. Participate more in class / go to OH’s… 1x a week per class
4. Do some sort of community service 1x a week (prob LA Works)
5. And lastly - Be open to making new friends / trying new things
