Thursday
I had two separate reminders recently that the key to success is establishment of, monitoring of, and gradual progress toward long-term goals. I already knew this (have you read my blog header? *Up*) but forgot for a minute. So without further ado, we return to our regularly-scheduled long-term goals. Except that they've changed since the last time I did this (did I mention that goals are dynamic? W00t, nothing like a moving target to help you define "success.")

Post at MichelleTuesday.com  Open in new Window. at least once per week.
*Pencil* Pending and overdue.

Business priorities
I'm not even sure what these are. So today's goal is to compile and prioritize a list by the time I blog tomorrow. Here is a brainstormed list to get me started, but it will definitely change:
1. Update mileage record in my planner.
2. Find a better way to track mileage than in my planner. *Pthb*
3. Something to do with scheduling and retention tracking databases.
4. Update the business plan with new projections based on skyrocketing sales volume.
5. Schedule my days to maximize productivity. I'm a bit scattered.
6. Plan customer appreciation activity for the holidays.
7. Fill Samplers (this may take strategic advertising.)
8. Close the books for October and assess the damage. In particular, revisit break-even analysis.
9. Address drums and soundproofing issues.
10. Plan Keith's 40th birthday party. Oh, wait. That goes somewhere else.

Temporary goal: Plan Keith's 40th birthday party.
*Writing* In progress. I'm brainstorming with his sister and friend from work. OH! I also need to get a present ordered, sheesh.

Launch one new performance repertoire song per week.
*Pencil* Pending. I also need to update my Potbelly folder.

One load of laundry per day.
*Thumbsdown* Not yesterday, but I am in progress today and look forward to a *Check* tomorrow.
