A lot of people are emailing and posting comments about the missing parts of 101 Goal Setting Breakthroughs: A 31 Day Blog Series That Will Make 2008 Your Best Year Ever!
If you feel you are missing parts there are two reasons:
1 I used a template that posted the wrong numbers to some of the tips.
2. I wasn’t clear to you about how the tips would be presented and counted.
I still have the rest to post (I know, I know I’m late!) I am usually slammed, but this has been the busiest January of my entire life. Regretfully I am running 2 or 3 days behind on the posts.
How the series changed…
Quality: When I first embarked on this journey, I figured I’d do two to four posts a day consisting of one paragraph tips. Instead, when I started getting into it, I started having a great time. Most of the posts exceed 500 words. And I feel that many of them are some of the best in this blog’s history.
Reader response has born this out and inspired me keep with quality over quickness.
I understand some of you, because of shyness or fear of public scrutiny, decided to email me directly instead of posting your comments. I especially enjoyed hearing stories of how one of the breakthroughs came just at the perfect moment and you were able to solve a problem in the nick of time.
More emails revealed the confused sadness over the loss of a love and how one of the articles “turned on all the lights” for you. Candidly, I am not sure which post you are speaking of, but that’s ok. I often enter a state of “writing flow” where the words race onto the page as if I am transcribing them from some other source. I believe the flow state involves sensory memory, which is fleeting and gone. I’ve learned to trust this state of streamwriting.
Without trying to sound like a complete nut job, some of the posts were so completely inspired, I can’t necessarily remember what I said. However, I am happy the posts have helped you. That is, after all, the whole point of this blog.
So although I am disappointed it’s talking longer than I thought, the results are much better than I had hoped for.
Compiling all the information…
When I am done I’ll compile them all into one humongous post. it won’t contain all the content from the posts in the series. Instead it will have the title of the tip, a short blurb and a link to the larger posting. That way we’ll all be on the same page
Thanks for reading, I am glad you are here!

Good idea to compile them. I’ll keep an eye out for that and will enjoy reviewing these all over again! Thanks!
I LOVE this idea … I’ve been going through the whole thing writing them down. Thank you!
