My life is seriously SO boring! Well...not exactly boring, but not really blog worthy. I go to work, I work too many hours, I get stuck in traffic, I listen to books, I go to Yoga, I sleep, I read. That's about it really. So not that exciting. So- here's a blog about my New Year's "Resolutions". I tell you what, I had a hard time with goals this year. Without school to sort of...direct my life and goal-making, I felt a bit lost. I don't know where I want to be or what I want to be doing in a year. Plus, I wanted to make realistic goals and also have a way to keep track that I did them. I decided that making weekly or daily goals can be defeating because if you miss a week, then it's ruined. Ok- that's dramatic, but you get the idea. You don't do it once and it's easy to fall out of it. So, instead of making the goal "I want to to _______ every week", I decided to use a number. For example, my goal is to read 3x/week, or a total of 156 times throughout the year. If one week I don't read at all, it's ok because another week I'll read 5 or 6 times. I want to write in my journal and blog weekly. Chances that this will happen exactly? Slim, but it feels easier for me to grasp it if it is a number of times and not a timeline. So- there ya go.
To keep track of them, I made a powerpoint with a picture, a table, and colorful cuteness, printed the slides, glued them to colored paper, and hung them on the door of my bedroom. That way, everyday I look at them and think about them. All I have to do is pull out a pen and I can check away. I love check marks.
So- here's a sample. My attempt at a productive and happy year!!
