This past month was self admittedly not much progress on my goals, it just didn’t happen. I guess to be fair- some did improve and some didn’t stick at all. But besides that, I do still want to work on them so I’ll try to pick fewer and focus on them more routinely. These are the few from last month that I chose to focus on and from looking I got about half of them accomplished. Better than nothing at all I suppose!
February Intentions Recap:
A) Book review- Feisty and Fearless and You are a Badass
-Read every night until You are a badass is complete, put status updates on Goodreads
-review on Goodreads rate for other readers book 2 for yearly challenge
- This one I was 3/4 successful with, I did the first review but didn’t get to read the second book yet. I did do a review on Goodreads for Feisty and Fearless as well, and wrote a post for it as well seen here.
B) Get 2 VA clients and get testimonials from those clients to build brand
-Promote the VA business in groups, on social media and through word of mouth and referrals
-Create design for infographics for VA business
-Try to gain one new small skill for services
- I tried to get on this one however I was sidetracked when I got some re-design efficiency advice. So I started to overhaul my VA page and took it down for the time being while I figure out my direction and purpose. I did promote it before however I got this advice from a professional in the field. I’m going to try to get ahead on this and drive through for Virtual Assisting.
C) Keep my blog successfully written 4x a week
-Draft a week in advance ( I kept up but not ahead in Jan. )
-Stay on top of Hootsuite and social media for my blog/VA
-Vary topics weekly-pets, life, linkups and more!
- Writing consistently? YEP CHECK! Until this last week I was totally written every M/W/F/Sun in February. I’m proud of myself for keeping to this one it’s been hard but I did pretty good. I haven’t scheduled social media quite as much as I should have for visual means. I’m working on that one still. I’ve done good with varying topics as well- trying to stay and not widen too far but my categories up top are pretty spread out. I haven’t drafted a week in advance (right now I’m catching up) but I’m motivated so maybe this month.
Goals for February (done):
I did connect with friends more.// I definitely wrote more in my Instant Happy Journal and also started journaling through freewrites.// I’m just starting to re-organize my online life, photos and emails (which I need to do again). // I kept the blog successful by writing regularly. // I did ‘meet’ some business connections in groups on facebook and others. // We also managed to keep the house in clean state of sorts. //
Now onto this month:
