I’m not big on resolutions
but I LOVE goal setting and do it throughout the year. So, since we are entering into a new year, I
thought I’d share my 2013 Goals with you.
OK, I admit that I’m slightly behind on this post but it’s still January
and technically we still have 95.6% of the year ahead of us, plenty of time for
me to accomplish these goals and then some.
For my visual friends, I made you something pretty…
For those of you
a bit closer to my own personality type, keep reading for a more detailed outline
of my goals. You might notice that I
really don’t have any gigantic goals this year.
The last few years, I’ve had some pretty big accomplishments and life
changes and in 2013 I would like to focus on consistency, stability and
balance. I pray that my 2013 Motto and
Bible Verse will help me stay focused on others.
2013 Motto: I will be a blessing every day, in every way,
to every person I meet.
2013 Bible Verse:
"In the same way, let your light shine
before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your
Father who is in heaven." ~Matthew 5:16
2013 Goals1) Spiritual
1.
5 o’clock
Club- I think, the concept of the 5 O’clock club is revolutionary. The idea is that by waking up 2 hours early 4
days a week, you can add an entire day to your week! What could you do with a
whole extra day?? Ok, so as exciting as
that is, I have no intention of getting up 2 hours early every day. But I will commit to waking up 1 hour early 4 days a week. (ie. Add a half work day to my week,
cool). I put this in the spiritual
category b/c I want to use the time for intimate time with God.
2. Relationships- I desire to deepen my existing
spiritual relationships and cultivate more friendships with unbelievers,
starting with my neighbors.
3.
Words-
I will ensure that the words I speak are edifying and uplifting. We are
starting a “blessings jar” in our home (I’ll explain this in detail in a later
post), I am reading through I Declare, and I am selecting a new “high energy
word” each week. This one deserves a
bible verse for encouragement.
“If anyone thinks he is religious and
does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is
worthless.” - James 1:26
2) Physical
1.
Drink 4
bottles of water a day- This may sound easy but I do NOT enjoy drinking
water but I’m learning to and I’ve found that the more I drink the more I want.
Win.
2.
Yoga-
once a week
3.
Complete
a 5k- this has been a goal for several years now but this year will be
different. My sister is now a kinesiology
major and we are going to run (or walk) on together, wahoo!
3) Career
1.
Organized:
For some reason, my desk and email inbox are consistently in disarray at my
office. I really do not like clutter and
when things stack up it makes me feel behind on my work. So I will make sure that at the end of each
week my email box is clean as well as my desk.
2. Star Consultant: I have been a Mary Kay consultant for a
little over 1 year now but have really only been committed to my business for
about 6 months (prior to that I was focused on my engineering exam). This year, I will make my business a priority
and will be a Star Consultant, which will allow me to promote myself to the
next level in my business.
3.
Life Long
Learner: Now that I am a licensed engineer, I do not want to become
complacent. My goal is to choose one
aspect of the wastewater treatment process each month and master it… research
it, read about it, visit treatment plants that have great examples of this
process and soak in as much knowledge as I can.
4)
Personal
1.
Blog:
At least one entry per week.
2.
Domestic:
Basically, I want to be a better wife and homemaker. I want to cook, clean and serve my honey.
3.
Europe!!!!!:
This seems pretty self-explanatory, but I have a very deep desire to vacation
in Europe this summer.
Please feel free to hold me accountable in any of these areas and if I
forget to update you, ask me. I also ask
that you pray for my success in these areas and in living out my motto and year
verse for 2013!!
wow, you are very detailed!! I hope God's strength will enable you to accomplish your goals :)
