- Accumulate as much experience from my job as possible. 10 people firm (financial services, investment management). Build a portfolio of skills that is both transferable and valuable - Take far more risk with my own personal investing, play poker more regularly and often & approach more women - Continue building a phenomenal network of high powered professionals, investors, start-up founders and established business men with a focus on private equity/venture capital. Follow up regularly and build a relationship - Improve my communication. I'll do this by enrolling on a stand-up comedy course, toastmasters and blogging more regularly

1. Financial and career - Payoff, in full, my remaining student loan balance. - Launch 42 niche online "businesses" that earn (within 3 months of launch) an average of $500-$1000/month. - Find and join a company that affords me: freedom/autonomy, respect, great coworkers, and interesting problems. 2. Social and cultural - Donate 10% of every dime that enters my bank account to charitable causes of my choice. - Refresh social circle to include only supportive, like-minded individuals with goals similar to my own. 3. Spiritual and ethical - Listen to Brainwave Entrainment audio and meditation tapes for 30 minutes EVERYDAY, preferrably before going to bed. - Listen to online sermons as a baby step to getting back in tune with my religion, and overcoming the "fear of what others think." 4. Home and family - Stop hating my mother for spending the money I sent to payoff student loans. - Buy a 4b/3ba single family house (2500 sqft or greater) by the end of Q2 for atleast 5% less than the going market rate. 5. Mental and education - Read self-help and personal development material for atleast 5 hours each week. -- Subscribe to and read atleast 100 publications related to the startup, software development, and marketing categories. -- Read 1 book each week on any of the following topics: starting a business, software architecture, online marketing, personal branding. - Attend 1 personal development seminar. 6. Physical and health - Cook my own meals by the end of Q1 2011. - Drop bodyfat percentage from 15.4 to 11. - Gain 25lbs of lean body mass. Not even done yet.. Reach for the stars.
