			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last January, I sat down to think about the upcoming year.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not one for resolutions or promises or big change-your-life sort of goals.<br />
But I do like to figure out what I want out of the next year.</p>
<p>First on my list for 2009 was to quit my day job. But that goal had a lot of mini-goals that I wanted to happen before I quit:</p>
<ul>
<li>get some press coverage</li>
<li>make enough, by selling yarn, to replace my dayjob salary for 3 months in a row</li>
<li>create new, not-strictly handspun yarn-related products</li>
</ul>
<p>As I look back on 2009, despite all the other icky stuff this year brought, I&#8217;m really proud of myself for accomplishing those goals.</p>
<h5>But what about YOU?</h5>
<p>But my goal was two-fold: I want to <em>crush it</em> and <em>share it</em>. (<a href="http://www.blondechickenboutique.com/index.php/begin-as-you-mean-to-go-on/" target="_blank">I wrote about that here</a>).</p>
<p>And while I&#8217;ve shared as much as I could as I was going <em>through </em>the process, I now have the time (and presence of mind) to share even more, with more details.</p>
<p>This year, it&#8217;s not a goal or a resolution or anything, but I am commiting to <em>sharing it</em> in 2010.</p>
<p>Since making my own goals public and then sharing the process, I&#8217;ve gotten a steady stream of emailed questions. I know there are more people who are NOT asking and I want to share as much as I can!</p>
<p>I have lots of ideas for really in-depth ways to share it (and by &#8220;it&#8221;, I mean the whole quit-your-dayjob, do-what-you-love, make-a-biz-from-your-craftyness thing) but I wanted to get started right away.</p>
<h5>Let&#8217;s talk!</h5>
<p>Next Monday (12/28), at 2pm EST, let&#8217;s take a break from the holiday-craziness and just chat about business stuff.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll give you a toll-free number (and access code) to call and you can call in and ask questions  about anything business-y.  Even if you don&#8217;t have questions or you&#8217;re shy and don&#8217;t like to speak up (that&#8217;s me!), call in to hear other people&#8217;s answers!</p>
<p>If you can&#8217;t make it at that time, I&#8217;ll send you the recording (as long as you&#8217;ve registered for the call).</p>
<p>To get the phone number &amp; the recording, just sign up <a href="http://eepurl.com/f-Tn">here</a>.</p>
<p>I look forward to talking to you!</p>
<p>PS. I&#8217;m not selling ANYthing! They&#8217;ll be no sales pitch or anything on this call, I just want to answer the questions you have!</p>
