Today’s question is perfect for this time of year when so many are thinking about the upcoming year and making plans.<\/p>\n

Write about three realistic goals you would like to achieve in your lifetime.<\/b>
\n
<\/b>
\n1. Publish my stories<\/u> – This seems kind of duh, huh? Except up until now, I’ve only been published alongside Nick. Don’t get me wrong. I love working with Nick and would forever except he’s pushed me out of the nest. He knows me well. If I continue working and writing with him, I’ll never tell my own stories and he doesn’t want me to miss out on that. He’s a good friend. So, my goal is to write and publish my own stories and books. I’d love to sell them too, but right now, it’s all about the act of being brave enough to publish.<\/p>\n

2. Build up my editing business<\/u> – I love working with other authors, helping them to build up their writing. While I love writing, I don’t want to give up editing and proofreading. I have a goal of making enough money between the two to be able to successfully live without any kind of assistance. It’s going to be a lot of work, but I love what I do and I’m okay with work.<\/p>\n

3. Own my own house<\/u> – This last one may be the biggest and hardest challenge, but it would be the ultimate sign of success if I could buy my own house. I like knowing that a space is my own. It gives me the security that I need. Right now, I’m renting a house that needs a crazy amount of work. I’m taking every penny that comes in to pay off old bills and to live. It’s my hope that between the first two goals, that I can make enough money to start putting funds aside to save up for a down payment.<\/p>\n

These are my goals, what about you? What are your three goals?<\/p>\n
