HEALTHY HABITS FOR MAY: Drink more water/get more sleep
I never accomplish all of my goals, but I sincerely believe the old adage that if you aim at nothing, you'll hit it every time. So these lists are my way of aiming at something!
I have not been walking as much so today I plan to get back to that each evening after dinner. Thanks for your encouragement to stay on task.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, Arlene! We've gone three times this week. Today we went during a lull in the rain!
DeleteThat's an intimidating list for June, however, I completely agree with you that if you aim at nothing, you'll hit it every time, so, more power to ya!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barbara. Without my lists I would accomplish far less!
DeleteYou are incredibly organized! Do you schedule time slots for your various projects or how do you decide what needs doing when?
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't know about that, Vee, as far as being incredibly organized. I just have to make lists or I would get very little done.
DeleteI do schedule time slots for certain tasks. I make a weekly list incorporating things from my monthly list, and work off that weekly list for my daily priorities. Often I fail miserably. But I do find that paying attention to timing on doing these tasks really helps a lot. I do more complicated tasks during my more energetic or clear-thinking times of day, for examples, and no-brainer tasks like folding laundry in late afternoon.
I would say you had a very productive, May, I am so impressed, your list for June is just as impressive. I too am a list maker, usually mine is weekly, but I like this monthly challenge, I think I might just try this! I also make a list each day from my weekly list, and love to check it off, some days I get all checks but most days not so. ~wink~ Your list tells me that you are such a loving and generous person.Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sue
Thank you, Sue, and I hope that you start making a monthly list as well! I know just what you mean -- most days I just do not get everything crossed off. But then I just move it to the next day.
DeleteThanks for your sweet comment ... Blessings to you as well!
Your are an inspiration, Mrs T! Lately I have been challenged to live more intentionally each day... Creating a simple list of things I would like to achieve each month is a good place to start.. I love your goals for the month of June... And I'm so impressed by all that you managed to get done in May!
ReplyDeleteBlessings and love...have a beautiful Wednesday!
Thanks so much, Kelly-Anne! Yes, creating a simple list for each month would be a wonderful place to start in living more intentionally. I will look forward to seeing what you do with this!
DeleteHave a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by to encourage me!
I love this! I may have to create a list for summer goals! Thanks For sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh, thanks, Denise! You are so welcome! I really find that if I don't have goals, I just don't get as much done, and since I am determined to live out God's purpose for me, I just need these monthly lists.
