I’m working on my new years resolutions – both personal and for my jewelry business.
What are you resolving to do in 2009? Lose weight? Increase business profits?
I’ve found that very specific goals. ie, “sell three pairs of earrings this week,” or “check out four craft shows” work better for me than non-specific goals like “lose weight” or “make more money.”
I do hope to do both of those things next year – specifically, lose enough weight to fit into my favorite skirt and still breathe (probably about five pounds) and earn $200 more per month than in 2008.
I’d love to hear your resolutions and any strategies you plan to use to help you achieve them.

I’m still working on my resolutions – but I have decided that I’m only going to do them for 3 months at a time – because then I can make them more specific more easily

I wrote out long-term goals last year & broke the first year down into 3 month increments – it really makes it easier to see how you are doing and where you could improve.
