That time of year to reflect on what last years goals were and set new ones or see if old ones need to be revisited or discarded. I gave up on resolutions, the word GOAL gives me focus and reminds me to think of WHY I made the goal and what STEPS I am going to take to achieve that goal.
Last year I was getting to a pretty dark place and knew I had to step up and take charge of my own health. I never look back until I'm getting ready for the new year, so this year I was very surprised and MOTIVATED to see I had achieved my goals WAY ahead of schedule and that proves I can do MORE! I am healed and I am ready for this!!
First I will share last years goals. I don't have an official routine however it tends to follow a pattern of some kind. There are basically 3 things I wind up doing.
What are the priorities in my life?
Vision Board, collage in journal and computer.
List, which I tend to expand on over a month or so.
WHY... why do I want to meet this goals?
My WHY and goals don't work unless I make sure that my goals are in line with the priorities in my life.
I make a list of goals of what I need and what I want (not considering any obstacles, just do it). Then I look back over it slower and cross off anything that just doesn't fit with what my priorities are. Sometimes goals look like they don't fit, for me they do. For example, my priorities are Health, family, spiritual. One of my goals is to get my home organized and de-cluttered. For me that goal helps with family and spiritual, I relax much better when things are done and I have a clean spot of my own to relax.
Here is some of my goal journal with goals I set for 2011. The focus was totally on me as I was falling apart and needed healing in a big way.
First I made my vision on the computer, at this point I had never heard of Shakeology or Team Beachbody, later I learned 2 of the logos I used are from their producs

Next I wrote out my basic list, categories I guess, then later added to them. Somewhere in this process a friend told me about Shakeology and I added it with a question mark by it because I had no idea what it was.

Lots of thought and writing goes on for about a month, and all I could come up with is this:
So as you can see, 2011 I was not setting specific goals that I could measure or track in anyway, I just needed to change and change ME fast. I did it! I am happier and healthier and ready to kick it up a notch or two!
2012 is coming and I'm getting a jump start. I originally signed up to be a TBB coach for the discount, I mean really, I am way to fat and insecure to be taken seriously by anybody, hell I didn't even take me seriously. Well if I didn't take me serious how could anybody else? I mean look, I've come a long way! I'm off all prescription meds, down about 40 pounds (would be nice if I could say that was it, but still going baby... and I WILL MAKE IT), I got laid off from a job I had for 15 years and managed to pay off my house anyway 8 years early. I'm feeling cocky baby so look out.
I'm still working on my computer vision board for the next year, however I have my handy dandy kindergarten style collage I do in my journal here:
Then my little list, which will be tweaked a bit because I realize I need to think bigger, so this is now considered my rough draft:
Yea, some is blacked out, after all a girl does need some privacy ;)
