| Yesterday, I came across a simple prompt inviting people to share their weekly goals. I decided to join in and keep it manageable. Just six goals for the week. GOALS: Ambitious in a Quiet Way (Jan 12/26) Tee’s top six goals for the week: • Write one short story for the Romance WDC folder • Finish the POV check on Chapters 10–20 of TMP • Read and review five additional chapters of M’s book • Get ahead on the journal with five new entries • Plan the next two blog entries • Write seven reviews for the Army, one per day if possible Ambitious in a quiet way.

I haven’t decided whether I’ll continue posting goals publicly each week, but I liked the idea enough to try it. I’m a list maker. It’s just how my brain works. These are the kinds of writing-focused goals I set for myself regularly. This is how I plan. I make lists. I make plans. I check off small accomplishments, and those checkmarks matter more than people might think. Make a plan and work the plan. Just for fun, here’s what my actual list looked like this week, made Sunday evening and kept pinned to the top of my notes for quick reference. It helps keep me moving forward. These goals are fluid, meaning priorities can shift as needed. GOALS (Jan 11–13): • Write a romance short story • POV check on Chapters 10–14 • Do any rewrites required for Chapters 10–14 • POV check on Chapters 15–20 • Do any rewrites required for Chapters 15–20 • Write the next five journal entries • Plan the next seven WDC blog entries • Write at least two backup WDC blog entries • Update the idea list and purge completed items • Read over Book Two for next-draft preparation • Write character sketches for the next five characters • Explore Max’s idea for displaying characters (it’s a good one) As time permits (back burner): • Work on the next entry for Rania’s story • Work on the Dice story • Figure out file transfers between iPad and computer (partly done Monday) • Research AI articles • Write January S-blog entry (remembering Paul and Mike) • Write January W-blog entry (another wisdom piece) • Write January M-blog entry (Milly cartoon) • Work on the website • Choose art for the website • Answer and purge Gmail folders • Answer and purge Apple mail folders • Answer and purge S mail folders and fix the error message A lot of these items stay on my list week after week, and that’s intentional. Seeing them there keeps me grounded in what I’m building toward. It reminds me that progress doesn’t always look flashy. Sometimes it’s just steady, quiet movement in the right direction. And honestly, that’s my favorite kind. |
