Goals Set to Goals Met: Effectively Climbing the Ladder - And Ensuring It Is the Right Ladder to Climb. | Charles F. Roost D. C.

I was just checking my challenges and goals on #storygraph today and noticed that I recently (probably some time last month) surpassed my yearly books goal. I‘ve still got a bit to go on pages (will definitely meet by end of the month) and I didn‘t set an hours goal for audiobooks (tho will do so next year!)
I honestly didn‘t think I‘d meet the goal this year - it is def my highest ever I think… 😆 #readinggoals

My biggest reading year ever! I wasn't originally trying to get to 100 books, but once I got close, I knew I had to try.

RebL Congratulations! 100 was my goal, & I got 76. Still a personal best. Also, I read way better books in 2022 than ‘21. Happy reading in 2023! 1y

Look, I appreciate the vote of confidence, Goodreads, but let it go already, IT'S NOT HAPPENING! 😑

Here's to a new year and opportunity for meeting our reading goals (or just being content with wherever we land). Happy New Year everyone! 🥳🎉

LeahBergen Stop trying to make it happen, Goodreads. 😆 1y

Ruthiella Happy New Year to you too! Gotta love that optimistic algorithm! 😂 1y

batsy 😆 Happy New Year! 1y

Liz_M Happy New Year, Billy! 1y

CuriousG I like the "just be content wherever we land" attitude. The last few years I have probably read half the amount that I did in the few years before that, yet I don't feel I've missed out on anything as I've also started DNFing more ruthlessly. Even reading less, I still read about the same # or 4+ star books. ? 1y

JamieArc 😂😂 1y

JamieArc @CuriousG I agree with you. I‘m 4 books from 100 (and have been there for days), and was going to try really hard to finish the last 4, but it‘s not going to happen so I did the unthinkable thing and decided to be okay with that 😂 1y

Billypar @LeahBergen Goodreads is definitely the Gretchen Wierners of the app world 😅 1y

Billypar @Ruthiella Happy New Year! Yeah, the algorithm is both optimistic and pretty lazy. Not only is it just one message, but they couldn't even bother to fix the grammar when there's just 1 day remaining 🙄 1y

Billypar Happy New Year @batsy @Liz_M ! 1y

Billypar @CuriousG Yeah - it's easy to get into a mentality where you choose a mediocre book over a podcast you really like for the sake of the goal. My count has dipped a bit in recent years since I stopped making that tradeoff. But I'm still so bad at bailing when i should. I bailed on one recently and it was such a relief! 1y

Reggie Happy New Year! 1y

Billypar @JamieArc That takes willpower! Probably very tempting to grab four picture books. But when I get that impulse I have to step back and recognize the absurdity of it. I was even trying to figure out how I could get to 50 books, just because it's a nice round number 🙂 1y

Billypar Happy New Year @Reggie ! 1y

Megabooks 😂😂 happy new year!! 🎉🎉 1y

Reading goals met! 📚🎉📚 (tho these aren‘t super final lol)
I‘m blown away by how much I exceeded my books goal - will have to thank audiobooks while working for sure (and getting back into comics)😅
I actually lowered my pages goal in October (from 135k) cause I was sure I wasn‘t going to make it - and I was right, but I‘m not so far off. Next year I‘ll go back to 135k and be intentional about reading more chunksters.

Aside from the usual #mounttbr goals I set and the #storygraph challenges I joined, these three reading challenges were my main focus this year. I just finished the book riot challenge today and I‘m feeling pretty accomplished 😄
I‘ll definitely do these three challenges again… anyone gave recommendations for other reading challenges to look into for 2023?

Soubhiville That‘s awesome! 1y

Soubhiville I‘m doing #Booked2023 😊 1y

Hooked_on_books Wow, nice job! 🥳 1y

Larkken Congrats, that‘s amazing! I finished Popsugar this year but I don‘t think I‘ll make it on RH‘s haha. I‘ll try again with them next year, and Booked, of course🥰 1y
