Goals are an important part of life. Without goals, we lack vision and guidance. With goals, we can take steps towards achieving our dreams.
Characteristics of SMART Goals
| Specific | Since goals define the path we will take, it is important to make sure that goals are clearly written. |
| Measurable | "You can't manage what you don't measure." |
| Attainable | $100 a month is just the starting point for me. Next I will strive for $1,000, $10,000, and then even higher. |
| Relevant | I am trying to earn online because of my appreciation for Steemit (as a platform and a community) as well as some online projects that I already have in the works. |
| Time Bound | I want to be earning $100 a month within 3 months (by March 1, 2018). |
My Motivations
I want to become a successful online entrepreneur, so that I can ...
- Enjoy more time with my wonderful wife and children.
- Provide a strong financial foundation for my family.
- Turn my hobbies and interests in income generating opportunities.
- Create multiple flows in revenue.
First Steps
For now I am focusing my efforts on Steemit based opportunities.
I will work to gain 1,000 followers in 3 months by completely the following tasks.
- Consistent posting - at least 3-5 times a week.
- Welcoming new Steemit users to our community - about 5 a day.
- Providing quality comments to other peoples' posts - 10 posts a day.
I will also be marketing my online course, Steem Markdown. You can enroll in my online school at SteemSkills.com

This is a great idea! Since reading this I have spent some time evaluating what I would really like to do with my Steemit account. Initially I signed up with the hope of learning more about cryptocurrency and maybe get lucky and make a few dollars along the way. This post has inspired me to evaluate what I really can do with steemit, and how I can use it to at least fund my IoT services expenses for the products I am currently developing ($30-40/mo), with the hope of maybe going even further in the months to come. I am planning on using your post as a guide to create my own goals post, just as soon as I get them figured out.
Again you have proven to be my most valued follow so far here on Steemit! For sure one of my goals is to generate enough from my posts to be able to support folks like you, for all of the hard work you put in to help the rest of us out!

@willwestfall, I really appreciate your kind words. Honestly, you will have days on Steemit when you feel like giving up. It is a hard road sometimes, but it is definitely worth the journey.
What keeps me going!
Good luck as you figure out your game plan. Let me know how I can encourage you how to stick to it.
I want to hear more about your next goal once you reach $30-40 a month.
Have a blessed day!
