Goals and Sustainability – Intellectual

Nearly all of us want to achieve the result of more money or finally losing weight, but are we willing to do what it takes to achieve those results? Are you willing to sacrifice what it takes to reach that end?

It is not just about the prize at the finish line but the cost of the endeavor overall.

The Social Aspect of Goals and Sustainability

Goal setting in the past has been my way of “fixing” the things that are wrong with me. Improving the areas that I am not measuring up to some elusive standard in my head. Working on my own mental health has helped me in my goal-setting and continued progress.

When You Accomplish a Goal – Part 2

Now, at 52 years old, not only am I a distance runner but I am a marathon runner. There is a chance that I will never run another marathon. But there is a better chance that one day I will. And even if I don’t, I am a marathon runner.

June 2023 – Goals and Sustainability – Spiritual

So why goals? I believe that part of this “divine plan” is for me to learn to work with and manage my physical body and mind. They are gifts from my Heavenly Parents for me to use to come to know myself better. I don’t believe God wants us to become something different than we are (Just my belief, and may be unpopular), but truly to become more of who we were created to be.

Moving into a New Phase

I have decided to let go of the “need” for perfection. That doesn’t mean I don’t still “want” to be able to show up perfectly. I am moving toward letting go of some of that perfection and still showing up.

As I build up the muscles of doing things less than perfectly, I want to continue to create more things to share with the world.

Is it a Pivot or Just Figuring it Out?

As I gain more clarity on what I am creating and why I am creating, I can see that there are pieces that have always been there. I am just fine tuning to make it more focused, more cohesive, and more resonant.

And over the next several months (since I am not a website creator :)) I will be updating my website to better represent who I am, what I do, how I can help you, and what that looks like.

Most importantly I want to take the time to congratulate myself on showing up, imperfectly at times, for myself, for nearly an entire year, to meet, achieve and succeed in my goals…. ALL of my goals for this particular event. Celebrating my achievements is not something I am accustom to so I am working to develop that more for myself as well.

November 20 – I am Grateful for…

I truly believe that coaching certification and becoming a life coach has had an immeasurable impact on my life.

And yes, this coaching program does cost a lot of money. And yes, it does take a commitment of time. And yes, it is challenging personally. And yes, I do believe it is entirely worth it.

November 10 – I am Grateful for…

Tegan is a great example of working for what you want in life. She set a goal during her freshman year to become the kicker for the football team. There are no other girls on the football team but that didn’t slow her down.

November 8 – I am Grateful for…

I don’t know if the beach makes me realize how small I really am in comparison to the rest of the planet, but I do know that I feel awe and wonder and a profound respect for the Creator of the Universe there.

That feeling helps me to remember that He created me as well. In fact, He created the beaches and the oceans for me to enjoy. And I do enjoy them.

I am always grateful when I am able to have some “beach therapy” time, especially when I can share it with family and friends!
