I jumped on board late with the August 3in30. My plan was to keep the same goals for September, although I've since changed my mind (I do that - a LOT).
1. Develop a healthy morning routine (which doesn't include yelling, fighting or rushing - ANYONE).
2. Purge my junk (and not become a hoarder)
I have a friend who just had a yard sale. She told me she cleaned out her 'hoarder rooms'. Which freaked me out. A LOT. I've seen that show. I have those roomS...as in more than one. My mom and I are having a yard sale at my house next weekend. So really, I hope to accomplish most of this between now and then. I did manage to clean up my bedroom making somewhat of a dent (I really should do a follow up post - it really is clean now...promise!). Now if I could just make about a thousand more dents, I'd be good to go.
3. Read a book (I used to read a TON, now I have a Kindle and I read none - go figure)
I thought if anything this would be the easiest. I love to read. I have bookshelves full of books, not to mention I just got a Kindle and download every single free book I come across. Unfortunately though, other than doing a couples bible study with my husband and going online, I've never really read anything on it. So I'm just giving it up. With 7 kids I'm sure if I leave this here I just be setting myself up to fail so off it goes.
3. Drink more water.
Sounds slightly lame but I should. And not to sound lazy but it is an obtainable goal and goes along great with #1.

Drink more water is a great goal and I love it. I know that I thought I'd read more once I had my Kindle and I do, but not if I don't sacrifice time that is intended for other things. Mornings are a challenge here, too, and I've signed up for the same challenge you have, I think :).
ReplyDeleteTERRIFIC goals!! Off and running!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement ladies! So far so good...bottle of water #3 done! :)
ReplyDeleteDrinking more water is one of my goals this month as well! :)
ReplyDeleteHealthy morning routines are GREAT and once you get in the habit you'll wonder how you ever lived without them. LOL
ReplyDeleteGREAT goals!
Good luck!!!
This 3in30 Challenge and Hello Mornings are great places to get the encouragement and motivation you need! I hope this month is a great one for you with accomplishing your goals!
ReplyDeleteWonderful goals. I'm a newbie to the 3 in 30 challenge but can't help being motivated by everyone's goals. All the best to you!
