To write some hubs and have at least 100 by the end of the year , may not sound like much , but two teenagers, my tax job, my mother in law with altzheimers 3 cats and one dog , hopefully I can at least get 83 more hubs done by years end:)
Mine is to end the year with over 200 hubs,at the start of this year i had 59 and now have 64 so i have written 5 good quality hubs in 5days,at this rate i will have over 300 hubs but im sure there will be a lull when i am having writers block or something...
I am not big on resolutions...however I do have goals and my goals are to increase my hubs and try to write 3 hubs per week. I am also wanting to build a website and finish my book by Halloween next year..I have lot of other plans but that is good start for now!
Honestly, why would you set a goal to write certain amount of hubs? You should write whenever you feel you have something to say and if you don't have then don't write, instead of forcing things.
My desired goal here is to accomplish something of such note as to be posted on the hub pages blog. Something like a record for amazon sales is what my fingers are crossed for (personal records are fine)
I echo lyricsingray, PLUS for myself, to not get antsy or drive myself bonkers when the score goes down or feel pleased with myself when it goes up a point or two.
I usually don't do New Year's resolutions either, but I'm going to try to hit some ambitious goals this year.
I'm going to try to do and average 2 hubs a day. I'll probably miss a few days but I've also been known to get in a zone and pump out 8 or 9 hubs and other articles on some days.
We'll see. I'm a sales guy so I value goals. I just hope I don't hit my goal at the expense of doing due diligence on the hubs like SEO. I'm still not sure if having more hubs is better than trying to get a few hubs better ranking with intensive SEO.
Anyways, we'll try the quantity with basic SEO and see how it works.
My resolution is to write a serious, clever, thought-provoking hub. So far my hubs make me seem shallow and slutty. Its like I have the brain of a genius yet when my fingers hit the keyboard I become a bimbo. Anyone else have this problem or is it just me?
My general resolutions are to quit smoking for good and to lose about 80 pds. So far, after a week I haven't smoked and have lost only 2pds. However, this is a year long commitment. I'll let everyone know the results next year.
I resolve to figure out what I'm doing and how to improve my hubs, I just recently started on HubPages so hopefully I will get to know my way around the site before much longer. Happy New Year All!
I don't really make new year resolutions. However,this year i want to master backlinking. Seems to be THE thing to work on very well to get a headway in writing articles (and probably a bit of success will follow).
1. To work on my 'time-management' skills... enabling me to actually make time to write a Hub or three!
2. To stick to a diet, give up chocolate (boo-hoo) and lose a LOT of weight - in time for me to be fit and fabulous at 50!! (It's the big 5 0 birthday July 13th!)
3. To stop 'over-punctuating', and cut down on my over-abundant use of exclamation marks!!!
As the old saying goes: "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail". That, in part, is why I believe in making New Years resolutions. However, I think they should be simple, no more than three in number, and...
Do you think making a new years resolution means you have regrets?I have made resolutions in the past, some tangible and some not. But, then I begin to wonder what this says about our feelings about our life and...
Do New Year's Resolutions set us up for failure?Everyone makes them, but it seems most don't keep them. It's like they are, by design, not taken all that seriously? Do we set ourselves up for failure by setting...
