Goals 2013: The Verdict

The only thing I hate more than people who update you every week on how much progress they've made on their annual goals, is people who never update you on how much progress they've made on their annual goals. I mean, yeah I don't want to hear you drone on and on about your goals every other day (though I admit once did this myself). But come on, don't publicly announce your goals if you're not going to hold yourself accountable.


Oh, this reminds me...it's 2014 now.


I should probably report back how I did on my 2013 goals.


* Buy a table and a comfortable chair: TECHNICALLY, NOT ACHIEVED, BUT FOR ALL PRACTICAL PURPOSES...
ACHIEVED +++.
I say technically not achieved because, I did say "buy" a table and a comfortable chair. BUT, in November I moved into a place in which my bedroom is already furnished with a table and comfortable chair. I mean, why buy if it's for free. So, I fault myself for not clarifying my goals effectively.


* Eat broccoli at least twice a week:
98.08% ACHIEVED.
OK, there was a week around the holidays in which I did only ate broccoli once. Sue me. I consider this goal achieved.


* Get back to the gym:
THAT'S RIGHT, ACHIEVED
When I moved, in addition to inheriting a table and comfortable chair, I also moved within walking distance to a gym. Score. Sounds like November was a damn good month for me.


* Pay off two credit cards:
ACHIEVED, BEE-YOTCHES
I haven't used a credit card (outside of a couple of isolated instances where I accidentally left my debit card at home and didn't have enough cash on me) since the day after the Super Bowl. Hopefully I can keep this going.


* FINISH MY NOVEL:
TOTAL FAIL!!! NOT ACHIEVED!!!!!
Well, I guess we know what's on the Goals 2014 list.
