(Late) Weekly Goal Round-Up Round Up

Yes, yes. I know I suck. Very sorry for the lack of blogging love and all that.

Let's cut to the chase and see how spectacularly I failed my goal list this week:

- SUCCESS! Finish the mother-of-all pours from last week (now only 400+ pieces)
- SUCCESS! Assemble 300+ pieces
- SUCCESS! Polish 300+ pieces
- PARTIAL SUCCESS! Prep stock for markets (price, tag, etc)
- PARTIAL SUCCESS! Finalise display for Mag Square
- NEGATIVE. Finish 75 samples for magazines
- SUCCESS! Place packaging order at Rio Grande
- SUCCESS! Visit local stockist
- NEGATIVE. Research sales rep

So that looks to be six from nine, or 66.6%. An improvement on last week's effort anyway.



(And the image above has nothing at all to do with this round-up other than it was the second image found on Google Images when searching for '66 percent'. Makes sense.)

This week I may take a rain check on my weekly goal round up as I am doing nothing much more than feverishly getting prepared for Magnolia Square, which starts in a couple of days.

I guess I could sum up this week's goal list with:

- Arrive at Magnolia Square
- Set up award-winning display
- Sell out of all stock by Saturday
- Drink champagne in celebration
- Eat delicious cupcakes .

I hope you all have a wonderful week!!

Weekly Goal Round Up

In follow-up to my less than stellar 50-percenter last week, I'm hoping to have a more productive week this week. I actually have to have a more productive week this week. The Magnolia Square markets are fast approaching and I have muchas work to get through. Plus we have visitors staying next weekend, so the work getting done will be minimal.

The major tasks on this week's list are:

- Finish the mother-of-all pours from last week (now only 400+ pieces)
- Assemble 300+ pieces
- Polish 300+ pieces
- Prep stock for markets (price, tag, etc)
- Finalise display for Mag Square
- Finish 75 samples for magazines
- Place packaging order at Rio Grande
- Visit local stockist
- Research sales rep

So that's what I've got coming up. Fingers crossed I get through the majority of it, and fingers crossed I don't see the bottom two items on next week's list.

Tally-ho! The week awaits!!

Weekly Goal Round Up - Round Up

So, it's D-Day. How did I go with my weekly goal list?

Prepare to be underwhelmed:

- SUCCESS! Finish Youngblood application and send
- SUCCESS! Send samples to Channel 7, in follow-up to Fashion Week meeting
- NEGATIVE. Prepare 75 samples to send to magazine folk
- SUCCESS! Complete another gluing/trimming session in preparation for
Magnolia Square
- PARTIAL SUCCESS! Complete the mother of all pours (600+ pieces)
- PARTIAL SUCCESS! Finish putting together display for Magnolia Square
- NEGATIVE. Visit local stockist and place re-order
- NEGATIVE. Research the ins and outs of signing up with a sales rep



So it looks like 4 out of 8. (If you combine the two partials into one whole.) Not horrendous, but not good. The week really got away from me, and that was quite disappointing. But there are good weeks and there are bad weeks. Let's just hope that this one is a good week.

I'll be back a bit later with the Round Up for the coming week. (Try to contain yourselves. I know it's exciting!)

This Week:

Inspired by Modish's Monthly Goal Meet-Up and not underestimating the driving force that is shame, I have decided to post a list of the highest priority tasks on my weekly to-do list at the beginning of every week and then revisit them at the end of the week, to see how much I actually achieved. I do not hold great hope for my results because I usually put about 237% too many tasks on my to-do list and never-ever-ever see the end of them, but we'll see how this goes.

- Finish Youngblood application and send
- Send samples to Channel 7, in follow-up to Fashion Week meeting
- Prepare 75 samples to send to magazine folk
- Complete another gluing/trimming session in preparation for
Magnolia Square
- Complete the mother of all pours (600+ pieces)
- Finish putting together display for Magnolia Square
- Visit local stockist and place re-order
- Research the ins and outs of signing up with a sales rep

There are about 30 other items on my list but they are incredibly boring to all but myself so I will not burden you with such minute details.
