I’m hanging on to my goals, but just barely. I’m on target with my reading list goal and slightly ahead on my biography goal.
However, the reality is that after a strong January, I’ve been lying on my oars somewhat in February. I’ve plucked much of the low-hanging fruit from my lists and the junk component has gone back up; I’ve used up my slack. March looks daunting; I have to find that January resolve again.
I’m reserving the right to reconfigure my list if I must. Ultimately it’s there to serve as a goad, not as a win/lose proposition. It’s occurred to me that it might be useful either to sub in some of my 2022 purchases or to add them to the list as it is, with the same overall goal. That would give me more choice going forward and also serve to assess my buying.
