Goal Setting,
My Life That’s right! I took a good look at what I want to get done, what it’ll take to get there and made a quick list of goals. I even set deadlines for some and a schedule for others.
Funny thing is I’ve been telling myself for weeks it’s time for a plan but I haven’t taken the time to actually create anything concrete or measurable. I think part of that is fear that if I make a plan things become all the more real. I suppose that goes back to Carla Young’s 30 day game changer post about self sabotage and those things that scare the shit out of you. Read more…

Goal Setting,
My Life I’m playing around with some ideas regarding where I want to take this blog. I’ve gotta come up with something if I’m going to keep up a 365 project. I have some plans to grow this blog, to build a community, but I’m not sure what type of community I want to build.
Part of me wants to build and become part of a single mom community. Super women who work, raise kids, cook, clean, have social lives (what’s that?)…For the women trying to balance it all but knowing that having it all is too much of a sacrifice and we will not sacrifice happiness and fulfillment for someone else’s dream.
Another part of me wants to avoid pinning down a theme. A theme means no (mostly) random musings. Read more…

Goal Setting,

Wow, this has been quite a productive month and start to a new year.
Still hanging in there with the 30 Days change series with Sarah Robinson of Escaping Mediocrity (though I haven’t been as engaged as I probably should be) and working out multiple times a week. My life hasn’t changed dramatically, but it’s a process and I’m working it.
Not that I have an official plan or anything. Just a skeleton outline of what I want to get done this year and what it’ll take to get there. I’m proud to say that some of my goals are already under way and I feel great.
The thing is that I’ve been itching for change. I knew that my transformation was not–is not–complete. My vision is not fulfilled and I have a long way to go before it is. But I love the feeling that I’m on the right path.

Goal Setting,
My Life The other day I talked about it being time to make a plan. I’ve been reading the posts from the 30 Days series and there’s just one problem; I haven’t been following through. I haven’t been doing the exercises and enacting the strategies.
Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve been doing things, but part of the 30 Days commitment is working through the challenges. They are practical steps to help me map out my goals (you too if you want to start now!).
So today I’m going to take some time to work through some of these exercises and create my map.
