I turned 29 over the weekend and have a ton of 'must do this before I'm 30' milestones rattling around in my head.  I'll admit, I'm not eagerly anticipating the big 3-0 but clearly realize another birthday is better than the alternative.

Here's my master to-do list for the next year, organized into personal and professional categories:

Personal:

1. Spend at least an hour a day (or an accumulated equivalent if I'm away) of quality, uninterrupted time with my kids.  We love to read books, wrestle, play ball, and do crafts.
2. Have one 'date night' each month with my wife.
3. Move into a new home.  Things are getting a little crowded in our current state. (note: we're in the process of looking for resale homes and exploring a new build).
4. Organize get-togethers with my friends every six weeks.  We've all been close since high school but now live in different cities and have busy lives.
5. Create and commit to a personal/family budget!

Professional:

1. Create and implement a base + commission compensation model.  This will serve as extra motivation and is something I think is critical in my sales role.
2. Acquire two new accounts outside of Canada.
3. Travel at least once to the US on business (either to pitch or attend a client meeting, conferences don't count).
4. Travel at least once outside of North America on business (either to pitch or attend a client meeting, conferences don't count).
5. Publish an eBook.
6. Participate as part of a panel at SxSW 2011
7. Speak at five conferences/seminars/workshops
8. Hire an admin assistant or office manager
9. Move to new office space with room for a basketball net (and the rest of the ResIM crew).

I think that's a solid start.  I'll be updating this post and crossing things of as I achieve them.  If you can help with anything I'm more than open to suggestions.
