Personal Goals for 2012

Here are the goals that I'm outlining for myself for 2012.  I realize that there are quite a few on this list.  I've never really made goals like this before, so I'm unsure of how many of these I'll actually accomplish.  I'm not too worried about it because I'm treating it very much as a learning experience.  Even if I achieve non of the goals on here, I'm betting that this process is going to be useful non the less.  However, I won't know that for sure until somewhere further down the road.  We'll find out then.  Notice that even this post is pushing me along on goal #4

Prioritized list - in order

1.  Brainstorm ideas for a passive income

2.  Create my 5, 10, and 20 year goals

3.  Read a book a week for a year

4.  Start and maintain a journal

5.  Create a steady stream of dates that I can go on around here to find people that I would be happy with in my network of friends

6.  Loose 5 lbs of fat and gain 5 lbs of muscle
