I once vowed to finish a marathon. Seriously under-prepared and secretly dreading failure, I was delighted to see that the name had changed to Snickers and I was off the hook

@Sian Letting people know is one thing- I've been all over 43Things for longer than Web 2.0 has been a word. And maybe you don't know, but most of what I blog should be taken as sarcasm!

Hmmm…i do agree with you to an extent but i also think there is value in letting other people know about your goals because it can inspire people to set goals of their own and when you achieve your goal, praise from your friends can inspire you to continue forward. However, I think we should all aspire to be better than we are on a daily bases and not just once a year.
