Public Commitment 2015

Dear friends, family, and interested readers,

Here they are, the goals for the year 2015! This year I’ve taken a slightly different approach, let me explain.

I’ve divided the goals into the following areas: Career, Financial, Education, Family, Artistic, Attitude, Physical, Pleasure, Public Service.

Each area can have multiple goals. The areas are sorted by priority (this year).

Next to the yearly goals, I’ve included my (brand new) 90-day action plan.

And below my goals is a short call-to-action for things I could really use your help on!
