Review Goals Weekly

have people over: I made this into a new challenge goal with a new deadline this week, because the meeting at my house was re-scheduled from April to May. Part of accomplishing this is doing my Flylady missions next week.

track all expenses each day of March I still would like to do this. Have a stack of receipts and bills to work from.

track all expenses each day of February Ditto.

Each morning write down 3 goals for Today: I managed to do this Tuesday through Friday. All during April I’m planning to focus on practicing my 2 new daily habits of (1) opening the mail, and (2) tracking expenses for April.

Have a place for everything and keep everything in its place: This is a new goal as of this week. I found a place for my mail this week. Keep putting my mail in it’s place every day next week.

Clear the Deck: The decks on my kitchen counter and on my office floor are starting to look a little clearer. Maybe all these babysteps are starting to add up.

Keep on paying my bills on time: I’ve got my current bills all together at the start of this month. I want to pay all my bills in the coming week. I’m also working on a monthly checklist to put into my flylady control journal to remind me to pay all my bills each month.

Do the Flylady daily missions: I really want to work on this in the coming week.

keep in touch with family: My mother’s birthday is this week. I need to work on this in the coming week.

Daily: Reflect on 5 things for which I’m grateful Made entries on Sun., Mon., Wed., Thur., and Sat. in the past week. That feels pretty good.

practice mindfulness : Made 1 entry today under this goal.

Embrace impermanence : Made an entry here about attending a funeral last week.

Stick to my goals: I hope reviewing my goals will help me stick to my goals.

give a gazillion cheers : made an entry here to celebrate giving over 4000 cheers.

give myself a pep talk : I’ve given myself 3 pep talks in the past week. They seem to help sometimes.

celebrate taking baby steps when anything bigger feels daunting : I’ve done this twice in the past week.

Review Goals Weekly: I’m doing this right now.

Shamelessly ask my 43 friends to help support and sponsor Segsy in the 2008 Take Steps for Crohn’s and Colitis Walk.: Maybe I myself can make a contribution after I get my bills paid next week and see how much money I have left.

This week I made some progress with a new goal, “Do Flylady Missions”.

And I did better on an old goal, “Daily: Reflect on 5 things for which I’m grateful”.

And I completed my goal to “track all expenses for each week of January”, and I edited an older goal to create “track all expenses for each week of February”.

Next week I want to continue with Flylady and Daily Gratitude, and also focus on bill-paying and expense tracking. My progress will depend on how well I’m feeling, since I still am sick with shingles, so I’ll have to not forget “Take care of myself”.

...just attempting to read through all these goals and think about what I can do next to further them along. Think I need to take a break. But at least I’ve made a start at reviewing my goals.

I’m not sure how to go about doing this weekly goal review. It seems like it might be a good idea to map out my committments for the coming week, then look at what blocks of free time I have, and then pencil in some appointments for myself to work on some of my goals.

^{This all sounds good but I don’t know that I can actually do it.}
