This is the time of year for New Year Resolutions.
I typically do not make resolutions. Okay, actually, I almost NEVER make resolutions!
But this year is different!
It's time to grow up and become an adult, so I am making 3 resolutions.
1. Get out of debt...or at least make great headway. My goal is to pay off my credit card, and today I took the first steps of making that happen.
My other 2 goals are a little more iffy, because my number one goal is my biggest goal of the year. The other 2 take money, which kind of defeats #1.
2. Health. It's time to get healthy again.
3. Tough Mudder. My cousins invited me to run the tough mudder with them this year, and I figure that if I make this a goal, then #2 will fall into place. I now just have to find the money to register, and still have enough to pay off my bills!
I always said that 30 was my year, and it was. But I believe 34 is my next best year! I'm feeling good about what's in store!
What are your goals?
You should check out a Dave Ramsey book from the library! All I ever hear about him is how many people have been successful with his stuff. I think he focuses on the Envelope Budget (there's also a TON of stuff on Pinterest about budgeting, ways to cut spending, etc etc)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm part of this 30 Day goal group thing and so far for each of our goals (we focus on one for thirty days) we've been encouraged to define WHAT our goal is, WHY it is our goal, HOW we will make it happen, find a way to make it FUN, and WHEN we will set aside the time to work on it. Really helps put action to thought! Lemme know if you want a goal buddy or someone to bounce ideas off of :)
Oh as for my goals, I'm sticking with the 23 I created on my birthday....right now I'm focusing on applying for internships, coming up with my thesis topic, and getting on an intramural sports team.
