This post is in response to Natalie Sisson’s question, “What Are Your Three Goals You Set To Achieve This Year.” paraphrased.

It is part of Natalie’s “15 Days To Freedom Blog Challenge.”

If you want to join in on her blog challenge, you can visit here.

Just to forewarn you, you will have to catch up with the rest of us because this is the 8th day of her blog challenge.

I will have to say that the top three goals I want to accomplish are attending the Podcast Movement 2015, publish two more books and speak at an event.

The first goal is really important because I missed out on the first ever Podcast Movement last year.

Hearing so much from top podcasters like Amy Schmittauer of Vlog Boss Studios on the event and how much they enjoyed it really lit a fire for me to make it to this year’s conference.

Plus, I missed out on the opportunity to meet Ms. Sisson and Jaime Tardy of Eventual Millionaire in person.

The both of them were part of a panel there.

This year, I am really determined to make Podcast Movement and connect with awesome people who are doing well with their podcast.

The event will be from July 31st-August 2.

The second goal, publishing two books will be done through Nina Amir’s Blogging A Book 30 day challenges that will be held in April and November. #paraphrased.

I honestly believe that this will allow me to stay accountable to my goals of writing a book and also use this website as a place to see if there is a market for a book.

The goal is to get the third book released by June 1st and the fourth book released by December 20th, God’s willing.

Third goal is to gain speaking engagements.

I have learned about the value of speaking engagements during a four-week self-publishing class taught by Kimanzi Constable and Jimmy Burgess this month.

I will be very honest, I am very terrified at speaking in front of people because I am an introvert.

I have given some class presentations during my years as an undergraduate student.

However, speaking in front of people is a whole different ball game.

So my goal is to gain some speaking engagements by May 1st.

Now that you have seen my three goals, I want to know what are the three goals you are going to fulfill this year?
