<\/a>\n<\/div>\nThis last month I’ve been taking a course on making goals that I love and it has changed a little how I think about goals and why I’m setting them.<\/p>\n
Each month I have 3 different areas that I work on: Blog, Family, and Personal. I have made small and big goals in each area. There are always goals that repeat for the different months, but I always post them because I look at this post over the month to remind myself what I’m working on. There are some goals that might cover more than one area. I will sometimes just put in one area.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/div>\nBlog Goals<\/h2>\n
I made some huge progress with the blog this month. It went far better than I expected. I got all of my goals done for last month but a few of them. I love it when I can check off something that I’ve been working for. I’ve also made some progress in my long term goals as well. I got a plan of what I’m doing for the year. There are lots of fun things coming. Plus next month is 4 years of blogging and it has been a wonderful journey!<\/p>\n
- \n
- Celebrate 4 years of Blogging on the 15th<\/li>\n
- Start of the 2016 Summer Program – Yes new one coming this year!<\/li>\n
- Get ahead on my blog posts at least 3 or 4 days<\/li>\n
- Use the Blog planner I bought – Look for planner that allows for 2 posts a day<\/li>\n
- Work harder on the next BIG Selling set for April<\/li>\n
- Finish 3 smaller selling products for the month<\/li>\n
- Don’t buy any new craft supplies until April – I did this last year and we had TONS of fun with it. It also made us be creative.<\/li>\n
- Update 2 old post each week or update two download pages with links to the blog. (ON GOING)<\/li>\n
- Keep a better list of projects started but not finished (I have around 25 projects started. I started lots of printables I did not finish this month.)<\/li>\n
- Get back into doing more posts of other things we do and not as many printables<\/li>\n
- Star working on a new Logo & Blog Design – this will be a yearlong project<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Family Goals<\/h2>\n
We had a lot of fun this last month and few bumpy roads. There is always something going on and I made sure we took time out to just relax. I did great with the cleaning and laundry for the first time in months. It was good. Plus my girls enjoyed being read to. I also know what when a house is clean there is more peace. I also found time to do something with each of them. I also found it is important to let my girls have a good time with their dad.<\/p>\n
- \n
- Keep a TO DO LIST<\/a>! I need this I get more done even if I don’t complete it all <\/li>\n
- Declutter one area 15 minutes every day until one area is clean. The areas I’ll be cleaning are kitchen, stairs, my bedroom, the office room (Look for pictures on Instagram<\/a> #kbngoals<\/li>\n
- Have no laundry to fold at the end of the day. Then keep track on my to-do list<\/a>, so I don’t forget laundry in washer.<\/li>\n
- Use Daily, Weekly & Monthly Cleaning Cart<\/a> <\/li>\n
- Read more to my girls not less – We have a reading list<\/li>\n
- Find one on one time more with my girls<\/li>\n
- Add to the girls chore list and help them learn the chore. (Working on Chore Charts)<\/li>\n
- Do a family night once a week<\/li>\n
- Let my girls spend time with just dad and do dad only activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Personal Goals<\/h2>\n
I think the word of the rest of the year will be Health for me. I finally got an okay that one part of my health was finally doing great. I also found that while I had the problem I gained another problem. And that health problem will take priority over everything else that I have listed. I also found more time to relax and take time for me.<\/p>\n
I have found that I love listening to audio books. I have also enjoyed reading a well. I’m taking more time for me than I have in 4 yars.<\/p>\n
- \n
- Adjust to my new diet and find something to reward myself with for not cheating.<\/li>\n
- Daily Fitness – This means fitness comes before ANYTHING else. I have been doing this for two months and making this goal again because it is a good reminder for me.<\/li>\n
- Make 10,000 steps EVERY day. I’ll be using a Fitbit Charge HR Wireless Activity Wristband<\/a>
to help with my tracking.<\/li>\n
- Stretch three times a day to avoid problems<\/li>\n
- Schedule a time out of the house for me twice a month<\/li>\n
- Read or listen to 5 fun books during the month – Don’t always get new books, enjoy rereading books as well.<\/li>\n
- Last year I started reading these books self help and parenting books<\/a>. This year I’m going to reread a few and post a review of some of them each month.<\/li>\n
- Color in my coloring book <\/a>
when I get stressed or need a mommy time out<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
