Set Priorities in Direction of Goals
After much thought, I’ve decided to reinvent my mission statement. The CAN page has changed and you’ll find the following(below) if you go there.
From the revised CAN page:
It has been said: “If you aim at nothing, you will surely hit it.”
That’s why I rate my own blogs monthly.
It’s also been said that if you do the right thing consistently, then the right things will happen to you.
I’m listing my mission statement here so you will better understand my what I do. It is:
To create and innovate value for others.
These are my monthly “CAN” goals defined:
C- Circulation is measured by the number of posts and guestblogs I do each month.
A – Association is commenting I do on other blogs.
N – “Nods” are my Blog Safaris, or “link love” posts.
Each month I set new goals and record the results publicly.
Each category gets a percentage score then I add them together and divide by 300 to get the final rating.
I assign my blog a monthly rank value according to this scale:
- 90-100%=

- 75-89%=

- 51-74%=

- 30-50%=

- 11-30%=

- 0-10%=

Current and past monthly CAN. updates can be found here. I enjoy and welcome your comments on this topic. Setting goals and achieving them must feel better than the best colon cleanser ;)

The more you talk about your CAN system, the more I like it…I really should copy and modify it for my own use but just haven’t done that yet.
Nicks last blog post..I’m making progress, eventually I’ll be caught up.

If it gives you motivation, please use it! I have modified even since writing this post and that’s okay! Moving toward a goal you will have to tweak your “way there” once in a while.
