Goal Book ~ Page 2

Last week I started a Goal Book using Mixed Media and I reached all 5 of my goals.  This is what this weeks Goals are...but before I elaborate on this weeks goals...here's a short recap on last week...1 was to write at least 5 articles - I at least doubled that!  Another goal was to make at least 1 'World Foods' dish - I did 3 or 4 of them.  Then I wrote 'Start A Vision Board' - I started one but it's in the very beginning stages still.  I wanted to breathe more...more deep breaths...I was able to do that.  Then, finally, I wanted to laugh/smile more...I also did that.  Hubby and I started watching Brooklyn 99 on Hulu+ and it's sooooo funny!  Nice way to unwind at the end of the day.

So on to this week!  #1 on my list is to get back into Yoga.  Any kind of yoga!  I mostly do Kripalu Yoga but am open to others.  I also enjoy Yoga Trance Dance that was made popular by Shiva Rea.  #2 on my list this week is to visit my parents.  This isn't unusual for me - I try and get over to their place once a week or every other week - but - it's still a goal.  #3 is to send at least 3 "Thank You" Emails to people and places that I think are doing 'good things'.  It's so often we hear the complaints and not the GOOD feedback and I want to change that.  #4 is to text at least 3 friends that I haven't chatted with in a while.  I have two in mind as I type this.  Finally - #5 is to concentrate on LARGE salads for dinners most of this week!

Not only did I reach all of my goals last week - I have a good start on the ones for this week - AND - I found myself accomplishing a lot of OTHER things around the house and at work that I didn't include in my Goal Book!  I'm VERY pleased so far with this project!

  1. Ok, simple goals, nice! I should have one too...and maybe I would not procrastinate so much. "Do not leave till tomorrow what you can do today" is definitely not something that I live by...and it's always "tomorrow...tomorrow...tomorrow" (Life's Brief Candle)! :(

  2. Yoga trance dance- sounds amazing. I used to participate in / facilitate the Gabrielle Roth "Wave" (5 rhythms) back in the 90s; I miss stuff like that!

    1. I'll have to google that :) Sounds fun!!!! I hope to post more about Yoga Trance Dance - I bought the DVD years ago and refer back to it every once and a while but there are some neat YouTube Videos on it as well :)

  3. Cool idea +Jennifer Bliss for keeping a weekly list of goals. I find that setting the goals daily keeps me grounded in today and having a plan for the week is a good idea too. Saw you blog at the "Healthy, Happy, Green & Natural Party Hop #43”

  5. Sounds like you are a very productive person! Love your goals list. I have a check list of things to do each day - I love getting everything done by the end of the day =)
    I love #3 on your list for this week! It's so true that we seem to find more time to complain than to appreciate.
