November Goals



I’ve been thinking quite a bit about the things I want to accomplish this month.  There’s just so much that needs to be done in preparation for the holidays – both Thanksgiving and Christmas.  But, I don’t want to lose focus on my internal growth.  So, one of my goals is to revamp my weekly list of goals to make sure that I keep those things I’m working on at the forefront of my mind.  I think I do pretty good at keeping my moodiness in check and my emotions under control when I’m actually thinking about it.  It’s when I get tired and frustrated that my good intentions seem to go right out the window.

So, without further ado… my list of goals:


  • Do cardio at least once a week and a muscle workout at least twice a week.  With the cooler weather I’ve already gotten too comfortable eating pasta.  Luckily it’s the season for baggy warm sweaters.  
  • Plan my Thanksgiving meal, snacks, and family activities.
  • Get my home ready for company. 
  • Revamp my weekly list of goals to ensure that I continue to work on my internal growth projects.
  • Fall cleaning – get rid of that clutter!
  • Find some good Thanksgiving movies. 
  • Figure out what my triggers are when it comes to being emotionally immature.
  • Play tourist while places are decorated for the holidays.
  • Get at least half way through my book on morals/values.  The book is huge!

Happy April Fools' Day!

I'm not a very creative person, and have never come up with something truly funny to do to my friends, family, or any roommates I've had over the years.  Maybe one day I'll be able to put some of the ideas below to good use.  Until then... these are just amusing.

Embrace Being Uncomfortable

We’ve all heard it before, “ Life isn’t always comfortable.”   Even if the change is a positive one, like eating healthier… it’s still not comfortable.     I’m in the process of buying my first home, and while I’m so happy and excited, I’m also really nervous and scared.   I would like to think I’m ready for the additional challenges and responsibilities of owning my own home.   But, what if I’m not?   Big life changes can be really nerve-racking!   But, I’m finding familiarity with being uncomfortable.   And, I actually take that to be a good thing.     If we get too comfortable, there is no growth, and if there is no growth, then we are just slowly dying. So, this week, embrace being a little uncomfortable.   It’s how you know you’re changing!

There is No Gain Without Struggle

We all struggle with something.  In our moments of struggle, it's impossible to think that other people could possibly be feeling the same hurt, frustration, and loneliness we are.  Remember you are not alone.  Struggling is a part of being human.  Without it, we would not appreciate the good things that we have.  Today, recognize that without struggle, we are not driven to be better.  You are better today, than you were yesterday.  Just keep going!  Keep taking steps every day to work towards your goals of personal development.
