    Fashionably Late

    I make a list of daily goals that help.
    There are 8 months left in the year. In those 8 months I will:

    -Read at least 30 books.
    -Have my own business open and profitable.
    -Gain more muscle and drop my body fat to 12% from 14%.
    -Secure my methods for stock investing.
    -Party in a big way but only once a month.
    -Learn poker and make $300 playing.

Read the shorter version years ago. It was like a different book. Now can see the movie and point out all the mistakes. I've read most of Hugo's novels. The version I read of Hunchback was the most exciting book I've ever read. Couldn't put it down. It's hard to even find the classics at a library any more. Often they are only available through inter library loans.

    there's a thought. maybe I'll read more non-fiction... got some Game of Thrones books to keep me busy for a while, now I can add Hunchback to the list.

    thanks, Louetta! yeah, I might do PP at some point- that's a good one. Here in SD we have Mt Palomar, which I run on occasion. Next on my marathon bucket list is Honolulu, if I can swing it.

    For now I'm going to give the feet a good rest, though. They've earned it.

    2:58 marathon PR for me

    now what do I do? Guess it's back to stock picking for a while.

    Jiesen, You don't want to peak too early. Most of my goals end Dec. 31st. How about a 2:45 marathon sometime in Dec.?

    My goal is to have a million followers at Twitter and live off Google clicks...Doug

    Actually I could probably live very nicely with only 50,000 followers

    To find something everyday to be thankful for.
    To look for the positive in every situation.
    To learn from my mistakes.

    And of course to try not to scare the Hell out of RB

    Jiesen, That's an impressive goal. My son was a cross country runner then worked up from 5K to 10K to half marathons. Then he ran the Columbus marathon in maybe 3:43 and he couldn't raise his legs to get into the car. Took a few days to recover. He said the last 3 miles were torture. Good thing was they had a giant screen at the finish that flashed time and name with live shot of runner. For some reason there was no crowd at that minute so he had the 12 foot screen to himself.


    -------------------billy
    I know that feeling- when I did the Disney half marathon, they took us through Angel stadium and showed the runners on the big screen while we ran through. It was an amazing experience, with the crowd cheering and everything. Good on your son for doing the marathon. Few more years of work and he'll be knocking on 3 hrs, too. Not much to it really, but just putting in the time day after day. My first one was just a few minutes under 4:30.

    What I think is impressive is that list of goals that you put together, and actually nailed on nearly every account!
