Goals of 2013

Here’s the deal. I’m not much of a “resolution” person. It feels like you are setting yourself up for failure, not to mention puts a negative spin on your previous year. I like to set goals. There’s nothing like a goal to motivate you. And because I’m a firm believer that if you put it out there in the universe, you’re more likely to hold yourself accountable, I’m going to share my business 2013 goals.

 via

1. Get organized. Being a one (wo)man show, I often say that all of the information is in my head, it doesn’t need to be on paper too. Not anymore. Binders, files, boxes. I need it all.
2. Grow my business. Take on projects that will teach me something, challenge me and help me get stronger as a business person. Skips the ones that eat up hours and don’t get me too far.
3. Post original content multiple times a week. If there’s anything I’ve learned from blogging its not that no one (including me) wants to see regurgitated pinterest pictures.
4. Get published. This one is big for me. It is a tangible success and I like that.

5. Finish up my office. Its easy for the design of my office to fall to the bottom of my list each week, but I want to get it done asap. Its much more inspiring to work in a pretty space.

What do you think of goals vs resolutions? Do you have any for 2013?

Wanderlust

I’m working on a little project, going through all of my old travel pictures and choosing some of my favorites to be framed for the office. It made me realize I have a serious case of wanderlust. I think part of it is my stage of life; very few ties at home other than my work. Every time I get home from a vacation I am ready to start planning my next one.
