1. Memorize Psalm 19:7-10.
2. Read one chapter in Essential Virtues.
3. Exercise 3 to 5 times.
4. Plan healthy menus; cook healthy meals.
5. Declutter for 1 hour in computer room.
6. Make 8 small craft items for gifts or possible sale.
7. Work ahead on study for next Sunday School lesson.
Now, as to how I did last week. I only fully accomplished 2 of my seven goals -- planning healthy menus and writing to faraway family. I partially accomplished 3 of the seven goals, involving Scripture memory, decluttering, and crafting. I had planned to memorize 5 verses and only managed two, but went on to a different passage for this week to stay with the program I'm trying to use. I only spent about 15 minutes decluttering and crafted 3 of the small items. And 2 of my goals -- exercise and reading -- were not accomplished at all. So I am definitely hoping for a better week this week!
At least you have goals! Our pastor used to say, "If you aim at nothing, you're bound to hit it!" You at least got a few things done, as opposed to accomplishing nothing toward your yearly goals. I think you did great!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the encouragement, Susan! I agree wholeheartedly with your pastor's saying. I have told my Sunday School ladies so many times that if we aim at nothing, we'll hit it every time. And you're right -- instead of beating myself up for what didn't get done, I should be thankful for what I did accomplish and keep aiming at my weekly goals. Thanks so much!
