2025 New Years Goals Check In #3

At the beginning of the year, I promised I would do some check-ins on my New Years hobby goals to keep myself accountable.

Well, here we are. Check Point #3.

So, let's see what they were and in red is where I am at currently

General Goals:

• I need to sort out all of the cards I acquired or had taken out of binders in the last few months This project was done, until the latest Grady M mail day came and many other mail days after that. With no time to sort, they have been stacking up.
• Put those cards away once they are sorted same as above need to do this all over again because of the Grady M mail day and with many other mail days.
• Start to finish some of the sets I started especially the 90's ones. Still haven't completed or finished one  yet this year. It's not looking good.
• The binder numbering project needs to be finished. 
• Penny sleeve everything I haven't yet. Still not completed or even touched yet. I don't have enough time in a day to do everything in life and hobby.
• Binder my Eli Mannings that haven't been put away yet, fix the rest in the box Haven't begun this at all
• Clean up my card room. It's just a mess. I need it better organized to get to what I really need to get to. My room has gotten worse. Also, a lot of non-card junk has been tossed in there since I couldn't lift for a few weeks causing a bigger mess.
• Do some giveaways as I haven't ever really done any on here. Haven't gotten to this yet either, maybe once I get to 100 followers on here. STILL WAITING ON THIS.
• Up my PWE trades especially among bloggers. No time to trade right now. Maybe next year? However, for those of you bloggers reading this and I have your address, watch your mail boxes around Christmas time....


For PC Goals:
• Reach 1,300 Eli Mannings. This is a very lofty goal. I haven't even reached 1,200 yet. Still not to 1,200 yet!
• Add some of my most wanted non-sport autos such as Ed O'Neil, Tony Danza, and Jon Heder. Not yet :(
• Try to fill in Rodney Hampton gaps of 2023 products. Many still on eBay overpriced sitting there that need to find a way to my collection Some have been added, a long way to go still! Now I have a list of 2024 and even 2025 as well to do!
• Add more to my "other" PC's to move me up the TCDB board. Allan Houston, Michaela Shiffrin, etc. Haven't done but not motivated right now to. This is at the bottom right now of my wants.


For Blogging Goals:
• Decide if I can fit blogging into my schedule and continue blogging. I want to blog more on here when I have time. School is eating up a lot of my life right now. I actually have a chance to submit articles again to a place but haven't had time to even do those. At the end of this year I have some big decisions to make when it comes to card blogging. Hoping to keep this alive. Your votes at Blog Of The Year may help with this.
• Come up with new creative content: Well....I have some ideas, just haven't executed them.
• Take away the sipping breaks and behind the scenes content? I have been on and off with this all year.
• New blog layout? still thinking on this oneI
• Come up with new segments still thinking on this one
• Reach 500,000 views This one got blown out of the water!!
• Reach 80 followers Where you guys at? I haven't gained one follower all year!! I am -1
• Blog my Giants cards on Big Blue Cardboard since they don't fare well here? Reader's thoughts? I don't The thinking is that all NY Giants card posts will come here, it will allow me more posts on here and some shorter ones which will allow for more posts.

There you have it, my 2025 New Years Goals third check-in.

Some good, some bad and most need a lot of work. Just like my health and eating habits.

Have a great day and let me know below how your goals are going so far.

I will do an end of the year check-in next time and that will show me where I finished in 2025 and then it will be onto working the 2026 edition. Crazy to think!
