RenManL11It is vague.

mmGale called this goal vague & I agree. But I made it a personal challenge, so perhaps I should explain what I consider successful completion of it.
Right now, (June 26, 2011), I’ve been a 43Thing’er for almost 3 months & have 3 goals done.
I like to use 21 days as a functional yardstick for defining completed, short-term goals or goals that are nebulous, like “Quit smoking/tv/procrastinating” or “Change/Start/Drop __”. So I figure I’ve got until July 18, 2011 to ‘finish’ this one. That takes care of the time aspect; now for the terms.
I think “Getting better at getting more things done” means being more rigorous at completing the more immediate goals, so on/by the 18th, I want to see at least 18 more goals in my “finished” list, (21+ completed goals). This should make it more habitual for me to work on personally meaningful achievements & open my list up for increasingly longer goals, as well as fueling motivation.
The goals involved aren’t all easy quickies, either; they include: Quit smoking; walk 1 mile/day; go vegetarian; read the entire Bible; donate 100k grains of rice via freerice, (at 13k now); volunteer; & get organized. A few I might not finish because I don’t control the timing, (Certified in First Aid/CPR, get a HAM radio license, etc.), but I’m looking to finish roughly Goals #1-18 currently on my list, plus a few of the 24 short term goals I have on my ‘waiting list’.
Should be quite interesting! 7 months ago
