Resolutions Update

Way back at the start of the year, I wrote out a list of things I wanted to do this year. That list was as follows :

• Photography
  • Macro Lens
  • Portfolio
  • Talk to Agents
  • Submit work to various places
  • Join local camera/photography club
  • Look at potential for “proper” photography qualification
• Work
  • Get the three main sites up and running
  • Make them successful
  • Keep track of how they do
  • Reassess in Jan 2007 – if they haven’t worked, kill ‘em
  • Get more smaller sites done and paid
• Writing
  • More “proper” writing
  • Longer pieces for d4d?
• D4D
  • That bloody sweary filter.
  • Installing WordPress 2.0
  • Photoblogging?

So – where are we, as it’s more than halfway through the year?

• Photography
  • Macro Lens – nope
  • Portfolio – nope
  • Talk to Agents – nope
  • Submit work to various places – nope
  • Join local camera/photography club – nope
  • Look at potential for “proper” photography qualification – nope

  So, Zero out of 6. Not good.

• Work
  • Get the three main sites up and running – two of three, and other ideas too
  • Make them successful – getting there
  • Keep track of how they do – yes
  • Reassess in Jan 2007 – if they haven’t worked, kill ‘em – nowt I can do yet
  • Get more smaller sites done and paid – yep, two so far, and more on the way

  Much better – this one’s working out so far.

• Writing
  • More “proper” writing – nope
  • Longer pieces for d4d? – nope

  Another Zilch

• D4D
  • That bloody sweary filter. – nope
  • Installing WordPress 2.0 – nope, and not going to
  • Photoblogging? – nope, but may come up elsewhere

  And another one.

So at the moment it’s really not looking all that good for the list. I need to get my finger out a bit, don’t I? I know/hope that once we’ve moved, things will calm down a bit and I can get on with some of this stuff a lot better. But well, for now, we’ll just have to wait and see.
