Goals/Targets......

Three months left in this year, so was wondering if you had set yourself any goals or targets to achieve this year and if you had achieved them.

Set myself 2 targets.......first one to paint my garage door, side gate, rainwater pipes and then my driveway gates......haven't managed it -when I was ready to paint, the weather was either too hot or it was raining-that's my excuse anyway.

Second target-to decorate small bedroom and my bedroom......haven't managed to do that either and I can offer no excuses.

Just don't know where the last 9 months have gone-the time has just flown by-will have to make the above my targets for 2010 and hope I do better next year

Re: Goals/Targets......

That's sort of like New Years resolutions, which I stopped doing years ago. I already felt a bit guilty about not doing whatever it was, or doing it, so by resolving to change it and then not doing so, I just added another layer of guilt. So I've just come to accept the fact that I do procrastinate, and stop fretting. If I do it, good! If I don't, well, there's always next year.

That's a good philosophy DM. I try to work to it; I spent my whole working life looking at dates and target setting - it's good to be away from that.

Re: Goals/Targets......

I wanted my old dog to reach his 15th birthday in July, which he did. Here he is at his birthday tea

I decided to do more art, which I have.
And I decided to do less `work`...that one`s not going so well.
