Goals

I am finding that the task of living a more full and enjoyed life is just that, a task. I thought that opening my eyes and being more thankful and being less busy would make me happier. But I'm realizing that being happy is more than just realizing that I need to enjoy my life more, but the act of taking practical steps to living a life more filled with GOOD things : )


So, I've crafted a few practical steps (in the form of goals) to set me up to live a full life. I realize that my perfectionist side has potential to obess a little alot over meeting everysinglegoalperfectlyalldayeveryday. So, I'm reminding myself to love the process. To enjoy the journey of life as just that, a journey. Viewing these steps as a tool to live more freely and full, and not as the end all-be all of my worth as a person.


Goals for the month of April:

• Finish the book 1000 Gifts and then re-read all the underlines from the whole book.
• Clean out the guest closet and get rid of....most of it.....(cough cough, all of it)
• Rewrite all of my "floating" recipies printed from the internet onto index cards for my recipie box
• Work out for at least 30 minutes 3 times a week (the former athlete in me is distainful at how puny this goal is, this is a huge step for me at this point)
• Write Justin an encouraging note once a week (that's 5 times in the month of April!!!)
• Go for a walk with Justin at least 1 night a week

So, there it is. Accomplishable (not a word), productive, and life-giving goals. Cheers to living a fuller life!



Love.
