  • Dan Erickson says:

    That’s a long list. I’m not big on lists. Sometimes I should make one because I forget things. But I tend to just do what I need to do. If I had a list I’d put “just keep doing what you’re doing” at the top.

    • Ellory Wells says:

      I have to make lists. If I didn’t I’d forget all kinds of important things. I have lists for upcoming blog posts, grocery lists, etc. I rely on them so I don’t have to worry about forgetting.

      It’s nice knowing that you’re doing what you need to be doing isn’t it!

      Keep pounding the rock and building that momentum! – http://www.ellorywells.com/maintaining-momentum/

  • Dan Black says:

    Great list! I’ve done and plan on doing a lot of the ones you mention this year. I want to finish and release my first book this year.

    • Ellory Wells says:

      Dan, can you tell us about your book and/or what it’s called? Make sure you come back here and post a link so we can check it out.

      Great thing to have on your list! I’ve got a book in the works as well, but things keep getting in the way. I need to make sure my priorities are in line with my goals.

      • Dan Black says:

        My bigger book is titled Thriving Leadership and it’s about the different nourishment centers we can have and adapt that will carry us through any season of life and leadership.

        I hear you, I’d wish I was making faster progress on it but I have so many other priorities I first need to focus on. It will probably be out toward the end of the year.

  • Joe Lalonde says:

    I’m not a good list maker. I fumble when I try to put into words what I want to do even though I know it’s important.

    I’d say these are a few of the things I want to do before the end of the year:

    Celebrate my anniversary with my wife (Get to check that one off tomorrow)
    Record 3 videos for my blog
    Start an affiliate niche site

    • Ellory Wells says:

      Just do it! I think that’s a great list.

      When a list gets too long, it can become overwhelming. Start with something you know you can do and which you really want to get done.

      I think you’re on the right track! Happy Anniversary!
