    Mine will continue although I got my N+ and half the MCDST but I doubt I'll get the 70-272 done anytime soon as I have a lot on.

    I also need to add become the overclocking world champion for air cooled systems :blink:D:D

    Right then, its 6 month review time...!

    My goals were...

    IT/Work Related...

    Pass 70-270 - Done, passed on Saturday.
    Pass 70-290 - Studying for it now, hopefully taking it late August/Early September.
    Pass 70-291 - Hopefully have a crack at this before the years out, hopefully late November/Early December.
    Pass 70-620 - Ideas changed, this may well be put off for other certs, or at least until next year.
    Continue working hard and gain another 5K raise over the year - Some of the way there, probably won't make the full 5k this year though!

    Personal...

    Finish paying off my Car, another 4k to go. - Got it down to £1,700 so hopefully finish within the next 3 months.
    Go on a few weekend trips to cities around Europe - First trip to Valencia this coming Friday.
    Continue learning and playing golf - Just havent had the time, lost abit of interest in it.
    Decorate my room, get a nice area for computer setup - Yup, done this one, got a nice new desk and setup!

    Hi All, came into this part of the forum for something else but seen this thread and wondered how we are all doing on our 2009 objectives, mid year?

    MCSA:Security [Success]
    MCSE:Security [293,294,298 to go]
    Security+ [Success]
    CPTS [On the course next week]
    CCNA [Just started]
    CEH [Oct 09]
    CISSP [Doubt I'll fit this in in 2009]
    MBCS CITP [Online Interview Monday]

    Cheers,
    Jim

    Good work, and again, congrats to all of you who are on track and are chipping away at your 2009 goals.

    (the above sounds lightly sappy but it's intended that way, really I wish everyone the best and I'm not drunk yet)
    :biggrin

    So far I have done ok, I'm an MCSA and MCITP so that's my study goals okeyed...I'm quite chuffed with myself (HONK...sound of a own trumpet being blown!!!). I have now passed the two year mark in my first IT job and its still going well.

    But, on my other personal goal, progress is a tad slow. Even though I have set up my music PC, still have not yet got down to making any tracks...I have had a play here and there and got some ideas down but not developed them, part of me is a little scared that if I get back into it all my time will be consumed fiddling about with synths.

    On a side note, I am enjoying the text size feature when posting on these 'ere forums. Sad:oops:

    Well if people are doing updates... mine have changed a bit too :)

    Started, but houses are expensive things to save for :)

    This objective is getting moved to 2010

    Yup, on track with this - passed A172 and on my end of course assignment for the AA100.

    They haven't paid for it :biggrin

    Moved... possibly to an indefinite point in the future.

    Sorry Trip :oops:

    Well we moved house, and I finally have my space for all my books... but I still have three billion personal projects on the go. Yay me :rolleyes:

    The German is coming on, but my only addition to Mandarin is I also know how to ask for beer. Oh, and I know how to say 'hairy chest' in Cantonese. Don't. Ask.

    But there are a few new goals to the end of this year. Summarily:

    End up weighing less than 12 stone (just over 13 at the moment. Ack)

    Get CCNA

    Get a.n other cert - either 70-621 or the ISEB certificate in Project Management.

    Plus... some... other... things :wink:

    This is me at X-mas of 2008 just days before making a resolution to lose weight and get in better shape this year. It's the same resolution I make and then blow every year:

    [​IMG]

    And here's me this morning actually keeping my New Year's Resolution for the first time in my frakkin' life:

    So if I haven't been around much lately, apologies, but two hours per day of cardio eats into one's free time.

    I didn't participate in this thread most likely because I missed it. But here are my goals:

    - Pass 70-290
    - Pay off my debts
    - Continue working out... my goal is around 10-12% body fat, gotta get the abs!!
    - Start studying towards 70-291
    - Update my MCDST to MCITP: Enterprise Support
    - Start learning about ESX

    I've just been looking over my latest Goals for 2009 list and when I compare it to previous revisions made through the year I am actually rather pleased with how things have progressed!

    It's the first time I've really kept a proper goals list and with year end fast approaching I have already started on my Goals for 2010 list. It looks significantly rosier than this past year for sure.

    My thanks to this thread for inspiring me to pull my finger out and create a goals list! :)

    Is it time for a Goals for 2010 thread yet?
