Well 2009 is upon us and it is finally time for me to let you guys know exactly what my goals are for 2009.

In 2008 one of my biggest goals was to be earning a full time income online. Well I feel that I have achieved that as I work full time from home 5 days per week. I have achieved this dream and I no longer require a day job. However, I am earning this by doing things such as freelance writing which I do not enjoy as much as other things.

So here is a list of my goals for 2009. At the end of next year I will revisit these goals (like Tyler Cruz did on his blog) and see how I went.

1. Earn $100,000 Online

This is a big goal for me. Last year I only made about $10,000 (mainly because I was a student and was unemployed most of the year). This year I have the goal of earning over $100,000. This is a big jump but online anything is possible. I will be doing this through a variety of methods. Freelance writing, blogging, flipping websites, creating and selling products and affiliate marketing (and anything else I discover along the way). It is a massive goal but when you break it down I only need to earn $274/day which is most definately do-able.

2. 2009+ RSS Subscribers for my Blog

At the moment I have just over 350 RSS subscribers. Not a lot but it is a lot more than most blogs. By the end of 2009 I want to have over 2009 RSS subscribers. I will do this through giving away free stuff for subscribing, running killer competitions and continuing to produce top quality content.

3. Earn a Full Time Income From My Blog ($1,000/week)

If I have 2,009 RSS subscribers then I only need to make $2/month per reader. Tyler Cruz makes $3 per month for each of his readers so I think that this is achievable. I will not just be doing this through advertising but also through affiliate marketing and through my email newsletter list. 

I want to earn a full time income blogging because blogging is exactly what I love to do.

4. Earn $100+/Day Affiliate Marketing

At the moment I am making $10/day affiliate marketing and I have only been doing it for two weeks. My first goal is to reach $30 per day because then I can stop freelance writing and just focus solely on affiliate marketing. Then my next goal is to be earning $100/day or more through affiliate marketing. There are thousands of people out there that are doing this and I am going to be one of them.

5. Buy a Bread Maker

I have always wanted to own a bread maker because I love bread when it is fresh and hot. This was on my list of things to do for 2008 and I didn’t do it so it is back on the list for 2009.

6. Start a Christian Blog

I do not always want to be a MMO writer. Eventually I want to be a Christian writer. My relationship with God is one of the most defining things in my life and it has transformed me a lot. I want to be able to become a Christian writer to help others come to know God. I have the idea and the domain lined up so all I need to do is launch www.thedisciplinedseeker.com in 2009.

They are my goals for 2009. What are your goals? Share them in the comments section below.
