Hey! I think you’ve had a GREAT year! If you accomplished every single goal to a T you would have an enormous head and then have to write a goal the following year about that. I love #2 & #8. #8 is going to be a BIG one for me next year.

I can’t wait to see how well you do in all your goals next year! Keep up the great blogging!

You done good, kid. Please, please keep up the whining (and really you don’t do that much whining…(Really, it’s cuz I don’t want to have to cut down on whining. I mean, if I did that, what’s left to blog about???) Damn straight on the patent bar exam! WHOO HEE! And the Marathon: Double WHOO-HEE!

LOL what a brilliant post, I would say all up - you did tremendously.

Looking forward to the 2006 Goals and thought I should at least ask if it’s okay that I steal this idea from you?

If only whining and surfing helped me run faster and further … I’d be a superfast gazelle like runner by now!

You did great with your 2005 goals, what’s in store for 06?

Hi Jon,
I spent far too much time sitting staring at my computer screen rather than cleaning my car or house as well this year. I love this time of year, it’s like you get a do-over like when you were a kid.

Hey, you hit some and you’re still working on some.I think most of us will find our lists similarly “undone.” (But you should feel a real sense of accomplishment for those marked “yes”.)For the rest, there’s always this year.

Hey Jon,

Thanks for your public goal setting post. While I read your post, I realized that we have a lot in common ;). On the plus side, look back at the last year and pick out the area you haven’t backslid on. I sort of think of my life as being like that bop-a-mole game that used to be popular at the fair, where you’d bop the moles with a padded hammer as they poked their heads up. There was some limit where the game would shut off it a certain number of moles were up at a given time. Keep bopping my friend.

If the net sum for this year is that you advanced your career goals, you lost some fat, gained it back, continued to drive your truck to work, and still have your family healthy and sound, I’d say its been a pretty good year.

And the whining thing, Ehh, keep whining to the blogosphere if you want to. If we want to read it, we will, if not, we’ll just skip it, no worries.
