Thursday, January 28, 2010My Goals
I am a little late writing this post - but I wanted to write, for my record and a way to look back next Jan and see where I have been.
Family
I want to spend more time with them. I have grandparents who are ill, parents who are stressed and a family that is more scattered than I wish to think about. But I want to make more time for longer phone conversations, more visits and more memories.
I lost a wonderful grandmother this year. While it was hard and heartbreaking, she was ill and it was her time. My other grandmother is starting to decline and my Papals are ageing too. While I did ok on this goal, it will again be a top priority.
I want to be closer to starting my own lol. This is something very important to me, and I pray that God sees it in my near future. God did see it in my future... I have met "The One".
Work
I want to find a job I love. I don't mind my current job, I like most of the people in my office - but I want/need more money and really want something I LOVE.I am still at my current job, still trying to figure out what I love. But for the time being it is OK to be here. I am lucky to have a good job in such an unstable economy.
Finances
I want to have at least my personal goal to be in savings. I want to spend a little less but still have money to do things I want. Is this possible?? It is. I saved money for the first time this year, I moved, bought a new car, went on a 12 day vacation. Things started to become easier this year.
Organization
I want to become more organized. From my car to my desk to even my closet I need better organization.
HAHA - yeah, I tried. Some days organization is my best friend, others well... others leave a lot to be desired.
I want to have a better grasp on papers and keeping my desk clean. I really need to become more organized. My desk is still a cluster, but I am getting better.
Exercise
I will be at the gym no less than 4 days a week!
I will loose the weight this year. No if/ands/or buts!
I did loose weight, completed the Couch to 5k program and did well on weight watchers. I will continue this goal into the new year as well.
Health
I will start to eat better, avoid fast food and make better food choices I have also done better with this. I still (and more recently) eat some of the bad stuff but overall I am doing a lot better.
School
I will finish these four courses in the spring and be in grad school in the fall! Complete!
I will keep uptodate on my laundry - even putting it away. HAHAHA why make this a goal next year when I know I am just going to fail.
I will get up for work early and on time. And make sure I am put together before I leave. BAHAHAH again, shouldn't I set goals that won't make me a failure?
I will no longer hit the SNOOZE button 23439 times before crawling out of bed. Again, big giant FAIL
I will get my 8 glasses of water a day and enjoy them, LOL So-so, again lately I have been slacking but this summer I did great with this. I will continue it!
I will spend more time with people that make me happy and less with those who don't. I did that this year, and it has been awesome.
I will go on another 2 trips this year. Somewhere, anywhere anything PLEASE. I did that too! Girlcation and beach trip.
I will go to the beach this year^ this can be one of my trips it just HAS to happen - yep, St. Lucie's
I will take better care of me. - I think I am doing better on this every single day!
I will try to be happier than yesterday, everyday! :) so I really have been doing this. I couldn't be happier than I am at this current moment.
Looks like a great year! Best wishes for 2011!
