How I did it
It made me
Feel More Organized 
How I did it: Used an old Moleskine lined notebook and a ruler and sectioned off the pages to have area for date, time, to-do, and tracking for various things. It was nice to set it up myself so each section was custom tailored to my needs, instead of trying to make a pre-printed planner work for what I want to do. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Just took the books off the shelves and entered them into Goodreads.com. This goal really got merged with my other - to put my books online, so that goal has a bit more info and tips/tricks! Read how I did it…

A few more paychecks and I’ll have been successful at doing this for a whole year! In fact, some paychecks I did more than 10%. I have a very healthy savings account now and plan to use some of it to pay off credit debt!
