THE GOAL SETTING THREAD.


BOZACK

Recommended Posts

post a list of things you want to accomplish, buy, do, or whatever. give yourself a date to complete all of these things by. don't set unrealistic and extravagant goals, but don't be a pussy and set easy-ass ones either. report back with progress.

let's see who accomplishes their goals by the date they set.

 

i will (hopefully):

1. expand my meager collection of 3 pink shirts to 7 0r 8 my march 2, 2004

 

2. gain 7 pounds by the end of february (which will put my emaciated ass at a whopping 106)

 

3. acquire my first helmut lang piece of clothing (long overdue) by the end of march)

 

4. get myself out of lafayette and back into new orleans by august 2004

 

5. complete 4 impressive canvases by the end of the month (one a week)

 

6. earn $200 of barnes and noble store credit by the end of march

 

7. expand my cd collection by 25 cds by the end of march.

 

8. get a tan before mardi gras

    quit smoking
    dress a little more like an adult

DUDE the whole point of this thread was to set DATES for accomplishing these goals. then we can come back at that date and see what we actually followed through with....

 

apparently spike was the only one who got that part...

 

and be specific! some of this shit is so vague and passive i know you guys will never do it. prove me wrong
