43 More Things — 2007 Edition

January 1st, 2007

Another year has passed and now we've got 2007 in front of us.

In 2006, I started getting involved with 43 Things. I use the site to create a list of 43 Things (or 43 goals) to accomplish during the upcoming year. How did I do last year? Let's take a look:

  • 10 goals (23%) were completed successfully.
  • 12 goals (28%) were abandoned.
  • 21 goals (49%) will be carried over for 2007.

What's on my plate for 2007?
(An asterisk [*] indicates a new goal for 2007.)
