Best Goal Setting and Personal Productivity Articles from May 2008

by Brad Isaac on June 2, 2008

May was a fun month for the blog.  Although it didn’t start out that way.  I spent the first part of the month rebuilding the site due to it being hacked.  But I think we recovered quickly with some good material, new site enhancements and great comments. 

We came very close to crossing the 5000 daily reader mark once and for all in May.  One day, it hit 4,985.  Stop teasing already!  :)   You can help me break this goal by telling a couple friends about this blog.  Refer them to an article you might have liked, or post a link from your website.  I want to cross the 5,000 reader mark this month!

Here are the most warmly received articles from May – which are also a good place to start when telling a friend about Persistence Unlimited:

Master – Amaze Your Friends & Baffle Your Enemies - DIY masters are the Renaissance men and women who you can call on at any time to build, repair or mod just about anything.  If you are new to DIY or want to go deeper down the rabbit hole, this is a good article to start.
