I only hit 50% on my 2010 goals and I’m looking to improve on that in 2011. So here we go, let’s do this.
I’m a new Dad so I want to make sure that I keep my #1 goal from last year. I want to be around for Nolan so the main goal for me is to continue to work less. I know its a repeat goal, but I think its pretty important to keep the work / life balance in check. Goal #1: Continue to work less.
