How are your Freelance Writing Goals Coming?
Last month, I made quite a few posts about getting off to a good start in 2008. As I mentioned, one of the best ways to do this is to put both short and long term goals in place. Now that we are three weeks into the new year, you probably have a better idea of how your freelance writing goals are coming along. While you have probably yet to touch on your long term goals, you should at least be able to determine if you are on the right path.
There are two situations that you will find yourself in: 1. You had your freelance writing goals set, but have been putting them off for the first few weeks of 2008. 2. You have attacked your goals, and are well on your way to reaching them on time.
If you fit into the first category, there is still time for you to get back on track. Remember, it is only January 22. Even if you wanted to start working towards your goals already, you have not lost too much time. But remember, if you do not start moving in the right direction soon, it will be February before you know it.
On the other side of things, if you are working nicely towards your goals, you should be proud of yourself. In fact, if you have done everything you wanted, why not reward yourself? It does not have to be anything huge, but a small reward will help to keep you motivated.
It may be time for you to rethink the freelance writing goals that you set last month. If you need to make a change, now is the time to do it. The longer you procrastinate the more time you are going to lose. You do not want to look back on your 2008 goals in December, just to find out that you missed on them all.
