La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician  Open in new Window., worship leader  Open in new Window., small business owner  Open in new Window., songwriter  Open in new Window., aspiring author  Open in new Window. and freelance nonfiction writer  Open in new Window. with a chemical engineering degree  Open in new Window..

But that's just my resume.

My profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

Reach 300 students at MTMS  Open in new Window. by 12/31/11:
*Writing* In progress at 143. It remains to be seen what the summer will do to our enrollments, so this goal isn't in the bag yet. Summer programs may be key, and I'm frantically working on them.

Customized database by 12/31/11:
*Writing* When I told Chris, the office manager, about my JackRabbit (music scheduling application) discovery, she flipped. She had head of JackRabbit via the business coaches her former employer had hired. So we signed up for a demo, and Chris played with the app. It has its pros and cons. But the whole demo thing prompted her to research other apps, and she found several better ones, which she is also test driving.

It never occurred to her to look for such a tool. Her former employer would never have considered such an unnecessary investment. (See how, with my overwhelming political savvy, I've avoided the word "cheap"?)

Potbelly: : Add one repertoire song per week
*thumbdown* Nope.

Messiah: One noteworthy accomplishment per month:
*Check* I have decided to remove this goal, since I no longer feel like a complete and total slacker. I've been paying my dues this year.

Reading: One book per week.
*Writing* I did read a little last night, but I fell asleep quickly.

Writing: Goals TBD:
(1) *Thumbsdown* Blog at WDC daily.
(2) *Thumbsdown* Blog at MT.com  Open in new Window. weekly. My mom told me that I need to update my blog. I guess I need to update my blog.

Count points: TOTAL POINTS YESTERDAY: gah.
I need a new strategy! It may involve hiding in a cave for a year.
