Hot dang! Reaching the 10% goal is a major milestone.
I'm a firm believer in the power of smaller goals. Last
night I described to a friend how mini goals work for
me. Imagine, I said, being on a road trip and being able
to see your final destination--a mountain range perhaps--
off in the distance. You have some idea how many miles
you have to travel, and you have some idea about how
long it will take you to get there. But you don't know
the road conditions ahead; you don't know what the
weather will be; you don't know if the road ahead is
straight and smooth, or bumpy, or winding, or under
construction in sections. So even though those mountains
are always there, pulling you forward, you still have to
get there mile by mile, and past whatever lies between
where you are now and your destination. I watch the mile
markers along the highway and know I'm that much closer
to where I want to be.

My mini-goals function the same way for me. They're my
mile markers on my way way to my personal goal.

Good luck reaching yours.

I'm fine with it. It could probably use some editing though.
I dashed it off rather quickly and posted it without
rereading it.
