Recharge and Refocus

In my effort to hit the restart,

I think that it will be profitable to set goals ...

SMART goals ...

Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Timely

My goal will be to be accountable to you at the end of each month - 

Will I reach the marks?

Some of the goals will be relatively easy,

others (primarily the Bible memory) will be harder,

but if I shoot at nothing ... I'll be sure to hit it (nothing).
