Set Goals
I’m always working on different projects, which is why I have to keep a daily list showing my priorities for that day. I understand how your aspirations can get pushed aside because of more important paying jobs. When it comes to accomplishing goals, I think it’s important to keep a record of them. Avoid giving yourself deadlines for loftier goals, because a short deadline for a complex project can make you frustrated. Refer to your list a few times a month and see if you have reached any of your goals. Include short and long-term goals. Since we are approaching the end of the year, make it a goal to submit a short manuscript to a book publisher or an article to a magazine.
