I was just reading the Rose Works Jewelry blog and realized that it isn’t just tax time – it’s also the 2nd quarter of the year, which means it’s time to check on my progress toward the goals I made for this year.

Mid-February and I haven’t forgotten about my goals for the year yet! February has been slow in terms of sales, and sometimes I’m just not in the right frame of mind to do any major promoting, so I’m working on some of my other goals.

Earn $200/month more than last year from [...]
