Still aren't following me on Twitter? What are you waiting for?
Thank you to everyone who reads my random writings here.
2009 was a good year for me:
Business
- Started a business I can take with me anywhere.
- Sold over 400 copies of the flagship product - 007 Lifestyle.
- Teamed up with the expert in my niche, Paul Kyriazi. Sales and exposure continue to rise.
- Got invited into an exclusive marketing syndicate where some of the best in the business discuss marketing tactics.
Travel & Personal
- Biked the Pacific Coast of the USA.
- Lived in Argentina, Colombia, San Francisco. Visited the East Coast of the USA for the first time.
- This might sound stupid, but I got a six pack - for a month or two anyway. I’ll try to resurrect it in Mexico.
- Learned a lot about myself blah, blah, confidence, blah.
I have a strong feeling that 2010 is going to be a huge year for me. These are my goals and dreams.
Business
- Release 4 ebooks (1 every 3 months). Right now I’m working on the first: it’s an ebook related to communication influence principles. I’m drawing in part from my studies at UCLA and then real world experience (the marketing will make it sound a lot cooler when it’s done). Another one is currently in development by a friend.
- Continue to expand the 007 Lifestyle and add a continuity program (monthly subscription) to the back-end.
- By this time next year I want to be doing $8000 a month in online sales.
Travel & Personal
- I’m almost done with the first draft of a book (that I will make hard copy & digital). It’s a memoir, travelogue, short novel, whatever you want to call it. This is a lot more personal than business related. I don’t expect it to be a major source of income.
- Live in Mexico from early January to mid March. Continue working on Spanish, hopefully learn to surf, and get a tan.
- Bike tour late spring and summer. I’d like to be on a bike touring across the States or Europe this summer. Every time I think about my bike tour down the Pacific coast I get a chubby, so I think I want to do that again.
- Winter will find me somewhere working on music. Piano lessons, voice lessons, and writing to record sometime in 2011.
Gotta dream big people. Gotta.

Nice list and congrats on the accomplishments this year.
My Brother is currently biking the North Island of New Zealand, which would seem to be right up your alley.
Cheers

Nice post. I just did my own review of the year and am working on a list of my goals for 2010 - takes a while, doesn’t it?
Well done on all the achievements this year, and I look forward to hearing about your Mexican adventures.
