Where Do You Want to Be In 5 Years?

[Deborah aka Loxly]

Corporations do this all the time, when I was in deep depression when my son Chris died in 2006 a friend asked me to visualize this, and as 2011 approaches I am partly where I said I wanted to be, but got distracted from part of my vision by the entrance of a very special man into my life.

In 5 years I want to be in an RV driving around the country (mostly the SouthWest) photographing the beauty that is there, along with my life partner, and sharing those images online in galleries for sale as prints and having photography once again be my main income.

I want to be sharing my knowledge, sharing the writing of my son Daniel, communicating the information I have gleaned over the years. Not just about affiliate marketing and ecommerce, but photography, raising children with disabilities and overcoming depression and grief.

I want to still manage the clients that I chose too, not manage clients because I need to. I am partly there with that now, in that we do not work with clients that we don't believe can be profitable for our affiliates and for themselves.

I really like your targets and am betting that you hit them. My daughters liked to watch Ann of Green Gables and Ann always talked about having "a kindred spirit" with someone she was close to. I think you know how valuable that is when you talk about your "life partner".

Myself I don't look that far out. I would like to find away to serve homeless vets through my web master skills.

I will be satisfied I think if 5 years from now me and my wife are relatively healthy, and I too would like to travel and see the Northwest a few more times. I'm pretty much the Simple Man that Lynyrd Skynyrd sang about.
