Goal Power!

I have set a goal.

That being said.... It is amazing the mindset you develop when you have settled yourself to a goal and embraced it.

... I will fully admit to being a crabby, zombie like mom. You make the supper, you get them cleaned up, you do the homework. Cycle after bloody cycle.

With the goal in mind and seeing the possibilities - I feel more alert and awake. I have everything I measure against meeting this goal. You wouldn't think that setting a goal and working to achieve it would make such a difference... But then why wouldn't it?

Setting Goals gives you focus and helps you set a standard for what you want to achieve.

Example -- Cleaning house? The FlyLady System is such a popular and working cleaning system for people who just... We don't clean. Have no idea what the 'f' that porous square is, shouldn't it be on TV making some annoying Giggle?

But the reason it works so well? Every step is a little goal. You achieve something and feel so much better because your small goals, small ladder steps if you would are getting you to the top so you can see so much better.

Exercise is the same thing, dieting is the same thing. the 21 Day Fix - it's through Beachbody, and right now they are having a sale on the whole system for $140.00, does the same thing. You set goals on the canisters of food, and it is so often more than you really can eat. I feel so much better when I follow this, and that is my goal now. Getting of this large tukus of mine and making this happen.

Small steps baby.... Small goals that stack up to make an awesome goal met. I think the top of this mountain is gonna look great when I get there.

Time to kick it in the rear...

Because life is apparently getting out of hand...

I haven't updated my blog in quite some time. But honestly, We've been pretty busy. Right now I have several goals, and I'm just... going to list it out and be honest. 

Goal One:

Loose the weight... To be accomplished by eating healthier and exercising. But I also need to control my emotional eating. Here's where you come in, I'm going to write this out. You know, kind of like the song, "Shake It Off"... but no shaking involved. You can just read this or just let it be. You don't even have to comment. Because I'm going to do this... for me.

Goal Two:

Get my health back on track... Right now - My health is all kinds of screwed up. My blood pressure is under control, and so is my blood sugars. However, at this moment I've got to go see the ENT and a Cardiologist for chest pain that may simply be involved with stress. But I don't know, so far the tests have been negative. 

Goal Three:

Complete my home goals... I have had several goals throughout the years, and I've yet to complete one. So I'm going list them out here. First is to establish my garden to grow healthy vegetables and various fruits to help accomplish the first goal. I also have it set in mind to restart my chicken coop with Standard Cochins. 

Three goals seems sufficient with everything going on. While goals one and two may be in the same category, they are two different items. Now that I'm back in School Full Time, I have to be careful what I set myself up for.
