My Wish List for 2010 - Desaraev


I realize Christmas and New Years has come and gone, but I don't think it is to late to make a wish list or a resolution. This fabulous year has just begun. So after a bit of deliberation, I've been thinking about what I want to do with this year. There is no time like the present to set goals or achieve them. Besides people can't give you or help you with your wish list if they don't know what's on it.

Desarae's Wish List
  • I would like to become a better public speaker, not that I'm not good, but everyone has room for improvement. I would also like to teach more in a speaking environment, wouldn't hurt if that was a paid gig.
  • Blogging on a daily basis is something I really need to just DO. Would like to have someone help me edit. Like  @julieannwarner?!
  • To Teach People. To help people. People like you. Learn how to step outside the box, to dream big, and to understand the internet and help us all become more then we where a year ago. Sounds cliche, but this is my list.
  • I want to own a new mac book pro by the end of the year. As long as we are doing toys: a flip, a live scribe pen (or at least test one out), and a new printer wouldn't hurt.
  • To meet Chris Brogan (I'll hopefully be doing this Feb. 3rd when he comes to Minneapolis, I've already bought my vip ticket).
  • To meet Gary V., Guy Kawasaki, Julien Smith, Kevin Rose, Leo Laport, Paulo Coelho, Hester Browne, and Justin Levy. (If I butchered anyones name please let me know so I can fix it asap.. I apologize in advance.)
  • To have coffee with the following people at least once in 2010: Lee Oden, Greg Veit, Mitchell Hislop, Amy Bryant, Liz Strauss, Mark Jacobs, and @Cheeky_Geeky
  • To visit at least one place on this list: California, Texas, Dubai, Sweden, England, SXSW, Japan
  • Save up for a down payment for a house.
  • Sell my 1999 Ford Expedition, Metallic Blue
  • Get my podcast going monthly (at least) and looking top notch. 
  • Bring in a min. of $50,000 monthly revenue for my company.
  • Sell some of my paintings, which will clear up some space in my closet and under my bed!
  • Find a partner who is good with numbers, strategy, new business, and is as dedicated and motivated as I am, if not more.
  • To meet more of YOU, get feedback and keep growing.
  • Read 2-3 books per month. Write reviews.
  • Attend 1 event per month (already doing this - more like 1 per week but would be fun if more of them are out of state). Would be even better if more started being FREE in exchange for blogging and promoting on twitter. One or two already are!

This post was inspired by Chris Brogan's wish list. So what's yours? Where do you want to be by 2011?

I really enjoyed your blog and wish you the best on your 2010 list. For me, I have made three goals to accomplish by 2011.

My first is to finish a solo CD I have been working on for the past year. The secend is release a CD with my new band mates plus to start playing live. The third is release a free promotional 5 song EP to help kick things off. My goal is to have the EP done by this June 2010.

Be true & stay strong,
Wolfgang
