Hello, here are my goals for the next 12 months. Please read them, talk to me about them, and keep me focused. I expect these to be completed by Dec 2010 (except goal #4 which may be completed soon thereafter).
1. Get top 20% at Microsoft - both in potential and performance. After evaluations ask for (and receive) a raise. This is required so that I have the flexibility (if desired) to easily move around inside Microsoft and possibly move to a different location.
2. Learn german - finish all 3 rosetta stone discs and supplement them with some written grammar lessons. This will require about 30 mins a day, 5 days a week. Keep trying to converse daily with Julie in German.
3. Support Julie in her goals at school. This means financial and emotional support.
4. Take a 3 week, action packed, trip to Thailand, Taiwan, and other south Asian countries. Also, take a nice vacation to Berlin.
5. earn 30$/month passive income from juicerinfo.net with ads
6. New flooring installed at Kanata house for all the high traffic rooms and stairs (if tenant wants them).
7. Play soccer twice or more per week.
8. Do some upper body fitness at least once per week.
9. listen to TED talks to and from work.
10. Pay for all of the above and have no retail debt by Dec 2010.
11. Create & maintain relationships while doing all of the above.

I would suggest you list the goals as you have, add quantifiable targets for all possible goals (as you have with vacations = 3), and establish what major steps are needed to achieve these goals, including potential milestones.
Right on Ben. Goals are the elixir of life all else is commentary.
Hi Ben,
Focus on what you can control
Love, Dad
