Sunday Summary – Week 24 FinishYear
Happy Father’s Day! Week 24 of FinishYear is over! (It’s not too late to join FinishYear with us! Here’s what we’re doing.)
On every Sunday in June, we’ve been sharing a quick summary of how we did that week on our Finish List.
Here’s my list of goals, and the summary of the progress I made:
1. Make the Quitter Conference awesome for people who attend.
There were two really cool things that happened this week. First, I talked to one of the three greatest speakers I’ve ever seen. He might be joining us at the Quitter Conference. I should know in the next few days whether he’ll be able to come present. The second thing is that I think I figured out how to give every attendee something that is absolutely crazy. It’s a pretty wild idea but if we can pull it off, it’s going to be awesome. Details soon! (If you want to join us on September 21-22, sign up today!)
2. I am going to finish reading 12 non-fiction books this year. One per month.
Still reading The Art of Possibility, but spent the week finishing Stephen Pressfield’s new book, Turning Pro
. I loved it!
3. I am going to finish running the Nashville half marathon Saturday, April 28th in under 2 hours and 10 minutes.
Done! I ran a few times this week but did not make it to the gym to work out with weights.
4. I am going to finish writing a new book in 2012.
Right now I’m gathering more ideas to put in the book once the editor sends me back his thoughts. This one is on track.
5. I am going to finish a box of thank you cards this year as a sign of my gratefulness.
Zero cards. Again.
6. I am going to finish handwriting out the entire book of Proverbs in a moleskine notebook.
Finished! It took more than 6 months, but I did it. I hand wrote the entire book of Proverbs. I’m going to do the same thing with the book of Mark and am already in chapter 2.
That’s how I did.
