Goals

Dear Constant Reader,

Last week the troupe and apprentices set our personal burlesque goals for the year (or for the term of their apprenticeship). This year we did things a little differently.

In the past people have written goals using vague language, like “more” or “better”, which makes it hard to tell when you’ve fulfilled your goal. This year goals had to follow the SMART guidelines (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-based). We also had to choose some goals with an April deadline as well as some that had longer deadlines.

Then came the fun and challenging part. Each of us had to suggest a goal for each of the other members of the troupe. It was interesting to see what each person thought the others should work on. More than once people independently came up with the same or similar goal for someone.

One of my personal goals to complete before April is to make a video tutorial. You can help me choose a topic!

One of the goals I was given (by more than one person) is to create a funny number. Contrary to popular belief, I have done comedy in the past, just not in a long time. Here’s proof!

As we achieve our goals, I’ll show you some of the results! Did you set any goals this year?
