I keep thinking about my three words for 2012. I'd like to keep them at the center of my goals. So I revamped my template.

BALANCE
Work goals:
Blog at MT.com  Open in new Window.: Scheduled tomorrow morning.
Year-end closeout: In progress.
Sign-in process for students: In progress, with new ideas.
Judge Ohio Idol videos: Done. *Thumbsup*

Writing goals
Performance Evaluations: Wrote two more this morning. 6 down, 10 to go.
Character Inventory: Scheduled Friday.
Set one song to music: Scheduled today, but I actually did this yesterday! Today, I tweaked and added a small instrumental interlude. I think it's done: "100 Times" Open in new Window. [ASR]

Church goals
<BLANK>, and...

Family goals
<BLANK> ...which makes me wonder if I've really achieved balance. I did go out for Mexican with Keith last night, which helps me Family goal but hinders my Body goals. Conflicts like that are why balance is so difficult to achieve.

If' I'm going to focus on balance, I need church and family goals.

BODY
Weight: 174.4. Not good. Probably the salt talking.
Exercise: Yes.
Yesterday's points: I lost count. *Frown*

GROWTH
Reach 400 students at MTMS  Open in new Window. by 12/31/12: 231.5

Music Log
Yesterday, I practiced: Scarlatti Sonata in Dm.
Yesterday, I listened to: Nothing. I'm not taking this goal seriously because it's not in my SCHEDULE. Duh. I'll fix that.
This week, I performed at: Pending.
Songwriting progress: Pending.
