I guess it would actually help if I posted on my blog more regularly instead of when I happen to think about it.
I woke up on December 31 with the following thought: Twelve in 12. Twelve is a significant number.
12 in a dozen
12 tribes of Israel
12 disciples
12 months in a year
I have TWELVE goals for this year. I will list them in order of importance:
1 Grow my relationship with God.
2 Build and grow relationships with others (family and friends)
3 Get healthy
4 Get finances in order
5 Communicate more effectively
6 Improve followthrough
7 get house in order
8 Downsize at home and at work
9 Read a book a month
10 finish knitting UFOs
11 pratice flute and piano 3 times a week
12 go to the archery range 2-3 times a month
Sounds achievable, right? Some of them are one time things, others are ongoing. So part of the getting healthy thing is going to the gym and getting my money's worth out of my membership and lose 5 pounds a month. That's practical. It would be if I went back to the eating habits I had BEFORE the holidays! I'm working on that.
I'm getting ready to move so that getting the home in order thing will be coming up soon along with the downsizing.
Building relationships: That'll be fun. That will force me to work on the communication part. And hopefully get me out of the house more often. Going to the gym and the archery range will help me do that.
Reading and practicing the instruments will get me from in front of the TV and off of the computer.
I'll keep you posted on how it's going.
