As 2009 begins to fly by, I am going to stay committed to attaining my goals.
Goal 1: Hit the GYM - well, Grayson and I have signed up for a 2 year commitment to Gold's Gym at White Rock Lake (formerly White Rock Athletic Club).
This is a very good start, on to eating healthy and saving money....

January Goals
'09 is going to be a HUGE year and I am extremely excited. Married on December 6th, 2008, bought a home in September, and started a new position with my current company as a conferencing account executive. So, I decided to post my Goals as they come to mind and see how quickly I can accomplish them and which ones will direct my path in life and help create long term goals.
Goals:
1. The obvious...Hit the Gym HARD and get in shape. Being physically active this year is a must. There is no excuse for not taking the time to dedicate an hour everyday, especially when my new gym is literally a block away.
2. Eat out LESS...this goal will help in a couple of areas, one area being my diet, the other my bank account. By eating better and at home can only benefit my health and wealth.
3. save, Save, SAVE...my goal is to save a percentage of my income every pay check. I will accomplish this goal without a doubt in my mind, I am going to do this by allocating 25% of my salary and commission directly into a savings account...
4. Practice patience...I tend to fly off the handle at certain things or lose my cool under stress (not overly stressed, but have enough). I am not sure how to accomplish this, but it is definitely something I want to work on.
5. Work Harder than the competition...I have a huge opportunity to make a giant leap professionally with my new position. First the money is better, and the opportunity to sell is there. First In - Last Out.
6. Travel - Hit the road and the airways...I would like to visit New York, St. John, and Costa Rica this year. It is going to be a busy year with a ton of weddings already on the calendar, but I think we can fit at least one of these each quarter...this is a stretch, but I will keep pics posted as they become reality.
That is all for now, but I intend to keep this up-to-date for my friends and family as well as for myself.
