This coming month is pretty jam packed. We have Trevor's family coming to visit one weekend, we are spending an entire week vacationing with my family in Indiana, and we have a few other things planned here and there. So, this month's goal's list is a little more minimal, but I am ready to accomplish everything on it!
This past month I didn't really accomplish as many goals as I had wanted. I switched planner systems about half way through the month, and isn't it crazy how that affects my goals and my mindset?! I didn't have my goals listed right in front of me for awhile like I did before, so they fell through the cracks. This month I plan on printing out my goals and sticking them everywhere FRONT AND CENTER. I have so many things I want to accomplish this month, and I'm pumped about it.
One thing that I've been learning lately is to let my goals guide my life but never dictate my life. I didn't cross as many things off my goals list this past month, but I accomplished a lot more things than I had expected. Sometimes life takes you in a different direction and you have to be okay with that.
I didn't exactly accomplish all of the goals that I had hoped to, but then again, I focused on a lot of things that I really hadn't planned to. My bullet journal became a big part of last month. And so did my family. Even though things don't always go as planned, often times going with the flow allows for things to work out for the better.
I found this quote on Twitter and I absolutely love it: "I've decided that my 2017 is going to start February 1st... January was just a free trial month." It makes me laugh and smile, and it is basically a perfect representation of how I feel. This month is going to be the beginning of the year for me. This is the month where I continue good habits, break bad habits, and create even better ones.
