2009 has come and gone. I find myself in a position of knowledge. That’s right, knowledge. I spent almost the whole 2009 year in search of the perfect niche. Funny thing is I was in it the whole time. I totally forgot about the number one thing that is said so much in the webmaster forums. Follow your passion and the money will follow.
I blogged about poker on kushmoney on random days but never told it serious. I was too focus on teaching others how to blog since that is a serious passion of mine. Not the teaching but helping others. I love helping others. I have no idea why though. I just do. Anyway, early 2009 I decided to totally focus on poker on kushmoney and make this self name blog for everything else.
Funny thing is I kept teaching people how to blog on this blog until I got bord of it while kushmoney has paid for a flip camera, 2 laptops, membership to outstandingpoker (poker training site) and so many other sites I have built, own, run, and others I have sold for profit.
Now that you know what happen in 2009. Lets get into the goals for 2010.
2010 Professional Goals
My 2010 professional goals are pretty simple. Expand my business by building more mini sites within the poker niche, launch my online poker tour, and build a community in my poker forum. Get alot of new players signed up to online poker rooms I am promoting. Everybody knows my biggest goal is $10,000 a month. However, I know I will not complete this in 2010. My goal for 2010 is $2,000 to $5,000 a month.
2010 Personal Goals
Oh boy, the personal goals. First lets get the things out of the way that money can take care of. I want to pay off my debt, get a used car. Something to get me from point A to point B, and last but not least I want to move to Vegas. I want to start my life over and what better place than Vegas!
With that being said, I think its time for me to find myself outside of business, poker, and food. When it comes to business, poker, and food. I know where I stand in life. Outside of that, I am lost. So I really want to get to know me. I also want to gain some weight and finally take the time to workout. lol
On a side note, my ex is my back in life. I guess its a good thing. She is my bestfriend. We didn’t breakup on bad terms or anything like that. Not to go into detail, we just on different paths in life. Deep down I would love for her to move to Vegas with me. 
So you could say that is one of my 2010 goals. However, I am not putting it on the list.
Recap of 2010 goals list
Build poker mini sites
launch online poker tour
Build community on poker forum
Income to $2-$5k a month
Pay off debt
Get a car
Move to Vegas
Find myself outside of business, poker, and food
Gain weight and workout
Get ex-girlfriend to move to Vegas with me
My 2010 goals are pretty straight forward. I know for a fact I will complete most of them. I will not allow myself not to be successful at completing these goals. The only 2 I find myself struggling with is completely paying off all my debt and finding myself. I am ok with that. The rest I will complete for sure!
What are your 2010 goals?

Well Deneil, I wish you luck with your ex situation. It seems that there’s still some unresolved issues there. Sometimes, people grow apart, and then they come back together with a new found sense of wisdom and comfort. And sometimes, being around each other will hold each other back from personal growth. Personally, I invested two years with my ex, but I don’t want her back in my life… at all. I cherish the memories I had with her, but the time that we spent growing together sent us in two completely different paths in life.
As for your goals, I think that you have very ambitious goals. It’s good to set the bar high, as long as you accept that fact you might not quite reach them. There’s an old saying that goes “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.”
As for my goals for 2010, I’m officially launching my music career in March. I’m going to launch my video section for my website before then. And I’m planning on delegating a lot of my work for Swollen Thumb Entertainment to other people so that I can focus more on my artistic projects.
Thanks, I am hoping that is the case. It would be great to get back together later this year or whenever. I totally know what you mean. I have an ex I would never get back with. Had great times, learn things from each other, and grew apart.
You are right, that saying is so true. If you don’t reach your goals. At least you are far better than when you started.
Wow, now that is a goal. I hope everything works out with your music career and your website. Alot of work ahead for both of us and focus seem to be the key word for success.
Hey Deneil,
I’m still working on mine! I usually don’t do goals, but I plan to this year.
George
Good luck with coming up with your goals and completing them George.
Good luck on your goals. Need to come out mine too.
Thank you Jayce. Yeah, goals really help stay focus.
I posted my goals on my site as well, but the big one is to try to figure out how to increase my online income as well. Seems you’re really getting into the poker thing, which would work out well for you.
Good luck on all of it, including moving to Vegas with your girlfriend, but let me warn you about this one thing. Vegas is land locked, and is having problems with water. Therefore, there are lots of water rationing periods, and I’m not talking just about lawns either. So, just know that before you move there; water is scarce out that way.
Awesome, I will check it out. As for figuring out how to increase income. It’s always right in front of your face. Take a moment to think about what is working for you and focus on that. Yeah, when you find a niche you love. Everything just have to workout because you will not let it fail.
Thank you. lol shes not my girlfriend, shes my ex girlfriend. Would be great to call her my girlfriend again. As for the water problem, I highly doubt that would affect me. My main reason for going is poker, food, find myself on my own, and most importantly get away from family. I can’t stress that enough.
I personally don’t do goals, but seeing as how you do, I wish you all the best in achieving them.
Vegas sounds like a good place for a blogger, especially as it’s open 24/7 and everybody knows a blogger never truly sleeps.
Thank you for your kind words.
lol you are so right, I am sure I will have alot to blog about.
I also just published my goals and also listed my personal and my blog goals, seems you and me were on the same page
So you want to move to Vegas, that sounds fantastic. My brother went there once on holiday and says I should go and see what it’s all about. The movies make it seem very unreal.
Hope you get that car and that all your other goals are met or come close to being met.
Cool, I will check that out asap. lol I guess we were on the same page.
Yeah, can’t wait to go there. Fresh start is all I need. lol yeah the movies does go over the top about Vegas. Nothing like seeing it for yourself you know?
Thanks for the kind words. I am working my ass off to make sure my goals are mat. Hopefully I will complete them all.
With All these Poker related goals how are you planning on finding time to yourself outside of poker
lol once my goals are complete
