Well my goal here at Mahalo is evolving. At first my goal was to beat the PS3 game Resistance 2 (and others) with the help of the Mahalo walkthrough.

I have gone from there to now learning about everything from to proper ways to research subjects and source answers to write articles, create SeRPs and manage pages. Who would have ever though I would have learned a little Wiki and HTML, certainly not me. I have learned a lot from Mahalo.

So now my goal is to, through Mahalo, learn everything. Yes everything and have fun doing it by helping others, answering questions and pushing the limits of what I thought I could learn.

I see no end point anytime soon or ever at all.

My goal is to be a great member here like @robbrown, @buddawiggi, @bunnyphuphu, and the others. :) Although I know that they are better writers and that they provides smarter answers than me, I think if I'll just give it my best shot all the time, people here could somehow appreciate me being here too. ^^ I'd also want to be friends with everyone. That's another goal I have in mind.

End point? I haven't really thought about that. I won't be a hypocrite and say I'd stay in Mahalo for the rest of my life. Of course I want to if it's possible but I'm not certain of what could come up yet. But so far I'm enjoying Mahalo so I'll still be around. ^^ I can still manage my work, personal stuffs and Mahalo so there's no reason yet to leave.

While I started, I didn't think, I was going to stick around for a while. I started to write answers,intrigued by people all around the world and their knowledge, claimed and finished tasks, got frustrated with my own learning process and I am still here. Buddawiggi, lesliec annek, smartweb, robbrown, jeffhord ...are few who helped me through this process. @Bud told me how to digg articles. It was funny, I didn't know how to use digg.com. I was bugging everyone how to set up the google analytics in my profile page.
Some of my pages are still not making anything...Now @smartweb is getting bugged by me. She is giving me advice in simple terms.
Thank you all who helped me.
It was really silly , @jeffhord voted me unhelpful and I did not even know why he was doing that !!!. So I went after his answers and voted helpful. I am pretty much sure,he had no idea why I was giving him "helpful" for a couple of days for everything he was writing (if he had noticed it....) Glad, learned to become helpful to few people.
Wow!!I almost forgot to tell you that my brown belt was celebrated well by my family.
I learned to make happy face during the tutorials.
Still, after 5 accepted how tos, I am not in the how to team. So the struggle goes on. Baby steps, baby steps...I am going to have the '''black tip''' in a month or so...
Yes, new hopes, new goals...Way to go....

My earlier goal was to build pages so I could list my articles from another site here. Now, Mahalo is my primary writing site.

My next goal is to get 50 How to task done this month to get the Red Dwarf bonus. I want to treat my family to a vacation to give something back to my parents. (Yea, I'm totally Chinese that way.)

Then I will start to answer questions better and get more involved in the Mahalo Answer community. I am in awe of so many great members here who can answer questions so thoroughly and are so helpful to everyone.

My goals here were simple, much like other places I've joined, to prove to myself I could figure this thing (Mahalo) out and make a little money. Like ever other time I'm learning how to use this site too to make money.

Though I don't have a great desire to be on the Hot-to-team I do want to learn to do those better. Then again I also want to learn to "manage" my own pages better.

We'll see what happens next and how things change over time. Maybe tomorrow I'll take up skydiving and see if I can handle that also.......NOT!

I have a few Mahalo Goals.

Short Term:

Create 50 or 100 how-to pages in November.

Long Term:

Build a residual income from my pages of $1000 USD per month.

I'll keep setting short term goals so that I can reach my long term one. :)

I've been on Mahalo since Jan, and the site and community has changed many times over, and so have my goals!

Mostly my goal is just to have fun, help people when I can, and learn interesting things. But within that I've had a variety of targets that I've aimed for.

At first it was just things like getting to the M$40 limit to be able to request a payment, and to get to Green belt. :)

Then later it's been things like getting to Brown Belt, or Black Belt, or reaching a certain number of M$ earned in a month, or getting a certain page to a certain page in Google.

Another type of goal I have, rather less specific, is to help make Mahalo into being the kind of site I'd love to see on the net - somewhere high quality, trustworthy, friendly, and a refreshing antidote to a lot of the nonsense and nastiness that exists out there.

I would really like to help people by answering their questions and have fun while earning money at the same time.

My Mahalo goal is a little unusual. I have self-esteem issues caused from a past abusive marriage. I made myself join Mahalo and participate as much as I can. My hope is that I will start to feel more comfortable in my abilities as a writer and to feel more self confident. Everyone here has been very helpful and as a result I'm starting to feel more confident in my day to day life outside Mahalo also. So, I guess for me Mahalo is a self prescribed therapy and my goal is to overcome the issues that have been plaguing me for years now.

My goal keeps changing. At first it was just to fit in the Mahaloian community and to earn money but now I am working towards my brown belt. I feel very comfortable here.

My long term goal is to become efficient at page management and to make some money from it.

My medium term goal is to learn all of the intricacies of answering questions until I become really good at it.

My short term goal is to get by green belt by tomorrow. ;-)
