Well-as hard as it is to believe-another year has gone by. What are your plans for 2009? In this economy I am sure some will be looking for new work, or thankful for the work that they have. We have talked before about depression caused by job loss as well as the importance of goal setting. Both of these articles were from experience and were written to try to help some avoid our mistakes.

As far as we go, we are looking forward to 2009. Personally, we feel that this will be a rewarding year. As always, we wish to increase our knowledge and enjoyment of our spiritual journey. We try to learn new things daily. One rather extreme goal we have is to reduce our total debt by at least 40%. This will by no means be an easy task, but we have learned from our mistakes and we are using a budget, paying down debt quickly, saving for emergencies-just trying to keep our financial house in order.

We hope, beginning in January, to give out monthly progress reports on our liabilities and assets.  This is not only to show what we are doing, but to help hold ourselves accountable to our plan.

Also, we are going to try many new things in 2009 and we look forward to reporting all those things that worked wonderfully and on the things that flop miserably.

We welcome you to share some of your dreams and goals for 2009. As always, thank you for reading and have a great day!
