Goal Planning Monday ~ Let's Try Again

"People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine." Brian Tracy

See, we are doing good!! We are setting clear, written goals.

Did I accomplish more last week because of my goals???

Unfortunately, I don't think so. I labeled last week craft week and I don't think I got any crafts done at all. I also didn't get my cake made. I am planning on making that cake this afternoon and I plan on working on a doodle project this evening because Rachel wants to mail a package tomorrow so I need to get it done if I want to include it.

Thus this week's title... I will try again to get my crafts and some saving of files to my external drive... as well as get that cake made.

I did get a LOT of reading done last week, unexpectedly, so that is good. I already had a great Monday morning, though I didn't get this post up early because I didn't prep it yesterday. I hope to have a MUCH better week this week.

I need to make sure the goals I write on here get handwritten in my notebook. I get LOTS more done if I do that and check my notebook DAILY to see what I SHOULD be doing.

My top priorities are marked with a *

My goals for this coming week:
Spiritual Goals   
  1. *Morning Devotions - including Bible reading(Proverbs), prayer, listening to music and reading a spiritual book. I am starting Confessions of a Prayer Slacker for my next book. Prayer will be a focus this year as that is my word for 2013. Done - read a bunch of Confessions of a Prayer Slacker
  2. Participate in the Joy Dare in 2013. Writing down 3 things each day that are gifts from God, things to be thankful for totaling more than 1000 gifts in 2013.Write in my other 1,000 gifts notebooks. Done - all caught up to today's date.
Homeschool Goals
  1. Do school with Christopher. Done - We are doing really well. Christopher asked that I read one more subject to him because he is doing so much reading these days. So I am now reading Historical Fiction. This will take more of my time, daily, but it will help with my yearly reading goal. For now I am reading more to him than he is reading on his own. Once we are done reading The Wise Woman aloud, however, we will be about even.
  2. Grade and Record work done, DAILY. Done
  3. Prep the next day's school, especially science! Done
Fitness Goals
  1. I must get back to exercising this week. Working out on the Wii. Done - only once but once is better than none.
  2. *Get my Weight Watchers dessert made... MUST DO! I know... I have said it so many times you are sick of seeing it. So am I and I want to eat the cake so I hope to get this done early this week. Not Done
  3. Eat fruit and veggies and drink water. Done
Blog Goals  
  1. Comment on everyone's blog that links up to the Goal Planning Monday linky. Not Done
  2. Post reminder and future themes for Think Back Thursday on Wed. Done
  3. Post Think Back Thursday. Done
  4. Comment on each person's post that links up for Think Back Thursday.  Done
  5. Work on and post monthly reading post. Done
  6. Work on week two's post for the Not Back to School Blog Hop. Not Done 
Personal/Other Goals 
  1. Read. Done
  2. Save files to external drive.... time to get back to doing this and get it finished so I can set up a weekly schedule to keep up and not get so far behind that it takes WEEKS to back up my stuff. Not Done
  3. Doodle Not Done
  4. Work on, maybe even finish, 2 digital scrapbook pages for my Creative Team 'job'. I have a school kit and I have not made time to work on it. Not Done
For this week that is 12 Done, 0 Partly Done, and 6 Not Done.
