It's a fun time of year, setting yearly and monthly goals. I think I'm particularly into habit goals this year, but I still like my Monthly goals as well. I meant to post this earlier, but here's the January list:
Family
- Finish 2022 Photo Album
- Update kids albums for Dec 2022
- Family trip to Castle or National Trust
- Take family long weekend in Forest of Dean (already booked!)
Personal
- Book Physio Appt
- Get a Massage
- Use my 5 class yoga pass before it expires
- Take 1/2 day off for my birthday.
Social
- Try to involve friends in other activities - kids or sport.
- (this is actually a very social month for me already, so I don't plan on making more goals because I already have so much fun planned!)
Professional
- Contact potentially helpful career people (1-2) in a casual new year way
- Plan out my Q1 work goals
- Think positively about my contribution at my job - work on imposter syndrome (vague but true!)
House Goals
- Get quote for half-bath remodel (ie moldy cold room to tiled functional room)
- Buy new kettle
Habit Goals
- Eat 5 fruits and veg a day
- Keep a food log
- Keep a time log
I bought Andy the 2023 Almanac for Hanukkah this year:
It's a very twee collection of tides, moon charts, daylight hours, seasonal recipes and other monthly miscellany. January's intro was particularly good:
I love that quote from the almanac! Don't fight the darkness! Wonderful. And your goals are so great -- I also have "get a massage" as a personal goal and I hope you and I both accomplish that one!
ReplyDeleteOMG, please tell me your strategy to work on imposter syndrome, because God do I need help! ;)
ReplyDeleteReading! I'm reading "Playing Big" by Tara Mohr now and it sort of talks around it. I also liked "The Authority Gap" by Mary Ann Sieghart. And I spend my time thinking "Wait, that guy doesn't know more than me!" in meetings. Good luck!
DeleteLove that quote. I told my husband this morning: I am craving beef and barley soup. Like give me all the warm, hearty comfort foods please. And we light candles almost every night at the dinner table and I LOVE it. It really does make such a difference to my mood and instead of the darkness feeling oppressive, it gives this opportunity/excuse to light candles and relax into a meal differently than we do when it's light outside.
ReplyDeleteRe a 2022 photobook. UGH!! I am feeling so stalled on this. I started months ago but there are so many pictures and I got tired, so I stopped. But I want/need to do this ASAP because it feels SO good to have it done (it's one of my goals every single year, so I always do it...but the earlier in the year the better because then we spend way more time looking at it). Gotta get on this...
