2022 & 2023 Goals

Every year I try to make some goals for that year and I go over the goals from the previous year. I don’t do resolutions because they never seem to work. Goals are something I work TOWARD accomplishing. Sometimes it’s more about the journey than the destination.

So below you will see the major and minor goals for 2022 and how I did. After that, you’ll see my 2023 major and minor goals!

MAJOR GOALS:

** Get at least five new clients.

            We didn’t do this. I wanted to, but the travel business for us fell to the back burner for most of the year. But we do plan to revamp after recharging!

** Attend book signings and get new readers.

            I did this! I went to two different book signings, got some new readers, and I’ve signed up for signings into 2024!

** Spend more time traveling around with James.

            Yes and no? We went on a cruise in January, and went to Maryland in June, but other than that, we’ve stayed close to home this year.

MINOR GOALS:

** Stream more (stick to a weekly schedule).

            I would love to say yes, but I didn’t. I want to though.

** Promote fellow authors more.

            Yes and no. I did promote them, just not as much as I planned when writing this.

** Join more local groups.

            Eh, sorta? I joined some local spiritual groups.

** Get more people into groups (Magic Bunch, Book Cove, Hideaway).

            I did get some new people, but I was hoping for more.

I think my goals were reasonable, and I just fell this past year. I didn’t do as good as I wanted and that is entirely on me. This year though, I’ve got this.

---

For 2023 I’m going to keep my goals a bit lighter. Three major, three minor. This way I know that I will be able to dedicate time to each of them to achieve them.

MAJOR GOALS:

Devote more time to our travel business.

Expand client and reader base.

Try something new each month.

MINOR GOALS:

Stream more on Twitch.

Divide my time better.

Publish at least three more books.
