I see the goal and make sure i reach it, but its always in small work relations. Meanings a little work, then the goal is met, on to the next one, a little work, done, and so on. I could never do the work work work work work work, goal met, work, work work....blah blah. I get very antsy, tired of the same thing and no accomplishment. But in other areas in life their appears to be no accomplishments. therefore my actual jobs follow the latter system. And my goal was to save up to go to school. so its job(va) job(va) school(ca) job job job. Its hard to work and remember school, but its always on your mind cause you're working to go to get away from that job. But I also Have FAS, so its even harder to reach my personal goals anyhow. tell him his 0-60 goal mph is slow, like hes driving a van(10sec). 60 being the goal, 0-59 being work...he needs to get his time to be of a Mustang Gt (5 sec) so his work will be 4.9 sec to 0-59 (work) to get to goal 60mph. if that makes since. i can see what you are saying…I get that at my jobs too.

Unfortunately, I gave up on that part of my journey long ago. When I originally started out I was living in very different circumstances. I ended up getting a new job with very different circumstances and just didn't have the time to devote to the quest as I original hoped for. I still continue to look for ways to make money outside my normal day job but this has definitely taken a back burner to my goal to double my money. Coincidentally, I've taken some time off from writing to gather my thoughts again and try something new. Not sure I'll try something as ambitious as doubling my money in a year, but I do want to try and do something. Hey Jones,

I quite like your views about the market so I hope you keep up with these posts and the good work! As one of the first readers i recall that your goal was to double the amount of 20000 dollars within a year. This year has now passed. Have you stoped working on that issue? How about a post related to this? How are the GoogleAds working out, and so on? Thanks a lot! Jones, Europe Thanks for all the interesting posts.
