Goals

I used to be a driven person. Recently, however, I have noticed that I'm not. I think it's the reason I haven't felt happy lately. Not having goals or plans can trickle into all aspects of our lives. When I don't feel like I'm doing a good job in some aspects of my life, I tend to let everything slide. I stay up until 1 a.m. doing nothing. I fail to keep my finances in check, I eat poorly and I don't exercise.

It's a spiral. I don't exercise because I am up until 1 a.m. and therefore tired the next day. I eat junk because I am too tired to make food. I don't play as much with the kids and then feel awful about it. I slack at work.

So today, I'm going to pick three goals for the week. They aren't big, but I feel like accomplishing something will help me to accomplish even more.

Here are my goals for this week:

1. In bed by 11 every night.
2. No more than 20 minutes computer time in the evening.
3. Cook every dinner at home.

I'll let you know how it goes!
