here we are in another month. wow, where did the time go? it seems like christmas was just yesterday and now we're entering the the third month of the year. i feel like the older i get the faster time goes by. last night at FHE we talked about goals. we were all given a block of wood and a black sharpie marker. we were told to write and draw pictures of our goals on the board. i wrote the typical big goals i have " travel, graduate,find me a man, be more spiritual, build my photography biz, & be financially smart". then on the other side of the board we wrote what things are keeping us from reaching those goals. "fear, funds, self confidence, procrastination, time, laziness, etc". this was an interesting thing to me because i feel like it goes right along with my goal setting for the year. if you have read my blog in the past you know my theme for 2013 is to rise to my full potential. i always feel like all of us, myself included are the ones who are keeping us from reaching for the stars and accomplishing those goals, small or big. we can truly do anything that we set our mind to. after we were done writing down those fears we were told we were going to bust the board in half. i'm not even going to lie i was so scared. i had fear that i was going to hurt myself, fear that someone was going to be watching me as i attempted to break it, fear that i wouldn't be able to do it. as someone held the board for me i punched it, broke it in half the first time and "got rid of those fears or obstacles" that were in the way & blocking me from reaching those goals! i felt very motivated after and encouraged to keep going forward with my goals even though sometimes they take a lot of work and time. sometimes we do things that we think we cannot, and amaze ourselves. i know if i work at my goals each day they will happen! here's to the month of march and not letting my fears get in the way.
my computer died so i have not been the best little blogger latley. sometimes i miss it. sometimes i don't. i feel like i've had more of a social life and sometimes it takes a computer to die to realize how much time you actually spend on it. i do miss blogging and reading blogs. i do get to do a little blog surfing at work during my down time but never have pictures or what not to blog. and if you know me i hate blogging with out posting pictures. anyhow wow, it's february. it's better late then never posting this. these are my goals for this month. latley i have been staying up way too late with the new roomies and neighbors and have been lacking sleep. which in turn my body likes to sleep in a little longer :) i want to focus on building those relationships with those in my life who i love. i want to be more thoughtful not only spending time with those around me, but by calls, texts, letters, etc. 3. i was blessed with a short stick when it came to patient. i am going to put my effort into being more patient with those around me and those i work with. i rocked at my budget last month. i was simply amazed that i did it. it was do-able. this month i just want to keep on applying my budget each week and keeping tabs on myself. i have learned to say 'no' when it came to going out (hardest thing EVER for me) but i did it. i also didn't go shopping. #proudmoment and the last goal for the month i have set is to drink more water. it's so easy at work to get preoccupied and distracted that i forget to fill it up and realize i have hardly had any water at the end of the day. i just about fulfilled all of my goals last month. they were hard but mostly do-able. i was proud to achieve most of them. i love setting monthly goals because they all work towards my goals for the year of 2013.
here's to another month!
