2009 Progress
This year is still very new but BNW is working on the catch up for this year and looking ahead at what can and can not be done for this year. While we have had some set backs and things are still not looking great there is still a maybe in our tone at this point. Some times that maybe is a weak one but it is still there. Its hard to say what they year will bring so we are trying to keep an open mind. There are some things that make me go "hmmmm", still but I will keep a check on it and more ahead as I can.
Mistakes in 2008 were expected. I am still cleaning those up some right now. Just got a copy of Quick Books, finally so that will help a lot. Had to go back and do some re work but at least there is a light at the end of the book keeping tunnel now! That is a big plus seeing how book keeping in not my strongest point and paying someone to do it right now is not an option.
As time goes on there are more lessons to be learned and more things will come up that we will have to deal with and work through but that is expected. Without those issues we learn nothing! Hopefully we will remember that part instead of stressing when they come up. It is only human I know but not very helpful when it happens. One of the first thing I do many times is think about it, stress some, think some more and then either fix it if I can or move on. That is how I deal with a lot of things. Those moments of stress end up killing time in some ways but then it turns out much better once I get pasted panic mode.
So, this is where we are right now and will be for the next few days, working on catch up and looking ahead to see what happens next. Maybe it will be a good thing, maybe another lesson.

Welcome to 2009!
We started off 2009 here at Building New Worlds with a look back at the year and our wins and loses for the year. There were some great times and some not so great times in 2008. we know where we did good and what went wrong. In the end of the day on New Years Eve we slept better knowing that 2009 was set up and ready for a better year. The best part of today we have been kicking back and web surfing, talking some and dreaming about the year ahead. Its all in a days work.
The last couple of days of 2008 were spend getting 2009 book keeping set up, checking up on the tax records for 08 and planning out the steps to build a stronger system for the new year. In the final hours we feel this will be much more work in some ways but well worth it. Our goals for the new year are pretty lofty but they can be reached with some effort. It is all about working smarted and not getting caught up in the fear factor.
The Network is kicking and growing stronger so we are going to focus more effort into that this year with plans that should boost interest even higher for the coming months. Again goals are high but well worth it we think. Only time will tell what comes of the work in front of us. Our members seem hopeful also. This is a great sign for the coming months.
Over all 2008 was a good year with some pit falls in the mix. We learned from our short comings and will take this into the coming months to give it another go around. The worst that could happen is not trying and ending up with nothing from this. Not part of the plan! We are moving forward to bigger and better things.
