Redefine 2009: June in Review

With the end of June, we are now half-way through the year (which is kind of scary).  Here’s a look back at the goals:

1. Redefine 2009
The focus for June was Meditation which…. really didn’t happen quite as much as I wanted.  The full review is in the June Focus in Review.

2. 53 Weekly Projects Challenge
The weekly projects for June included burning the 50th Show to DVD, creating a training presentation, writing one article per day, finish the next cut of Reflection, and started working on writing a song.

3. Weekly Content Creation Challenge
All of the June content is now at the Weekly Content Creation Roundup and includes some topical humor history, a mathematical rap, a sentimental letter, and a tribute to Michael Jackson.

4. Establish 4 New Habits
Exercising everyday was hit or miss this month, with mostly misses.  I’ll have to make sure I pick that back up again.  I also need to start a new habit, which for productivity purposes will be to start doing a weekly review every Sunday.

5. Improve My Taste
I tried a few more sauces this month, but nothing that really stuck out to me as being enjoyable.  I also tried a glass of wine and still am far from ever wanting to drink that regularly.

6. Publish a Book
No real progress.

7. Get 100,000 views on YouTube
We’re still working on the short film, but it is almost ready for scoring.  With the new focus on the humor that works site, this is now going to have to happen for something that is related to the site (most likely).

8. $10,000 in Supplemental Income
Other than some rent still no progress here.

9. Get on a Harold Team
Part of the renewed focus on improv should hopefully improve my chances with this next year.

10. Get 1-Rated at Work
After a preliminary discussion with my manager, this one is still up in the air.  Unfortunately one of my projects is still delayed and even though it’s not technically my fault, it could affect the rating.

Wow, 6 months into 2009 already.  I’ve been crazy busy this whole year it seems, and have accomplished a lot, but I need to make sure it’s on track for my longer term goals.  Here’s to starting off the second half of the year on the right foot.

Random Joke

Have you ever heard the saying, “It’s 11:11, make a wish”?  What’s so special about 11:11?  Apparently 4 1’s next to each other is the equivalent of finding a magic lamp with a genie in it, or being part of a foundation.

Do you think military people say that at 10:22pm too?

I have my own saying.  “It’s 12:34, make a list.  1) Write a joke about time.  2) Figure out a better way to spend my time. 3.) …”
