It does not matter if it is right or wrong you do learn something. It is one reason why I set goals every month. I just finished up <a href=\"http:\/\/www.3dinosaurs.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/free-printables-october\/\">31 days of Free Prinables<\/a>. I learned a lot about other people and me as well.<\/p>\n<p>I found out that by not keeping up with my goal that I would be overwhelmed by other things. By having daily goals that match up or help the overall monthly goal keeps me going. I did complete the 31 days of Free printables but the last week plus were a huge stress for me, but once it was over, I felt much better.<\/p>\n<p>Now I get to look forward to November.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/blog\/11-2016\/givingthanks2016.jpg\" alt=\"A Month to Give Thanks: November 2016 Monthly Goals - 3Dinosaurs.com\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>I&#8217;m taking all that I learned about doing a daily goal every day and seeing how I can improve myself for it. I have not pushed myself as much as I could. There are always new things I can do. In November my daily goal will be to give thanks EVERY day. A few years ago I made a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.3dinosaurs.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/monthly-goals-may-2014-with-free-gratitude-journal\/\">gratidude journal<\/a> where I could write down what I was thankful for. It had all 30 or 31 days on one page. I loved it. Plus I could look back and each day and realize that I am thankful for more than I realize.<\/p>\n<p>It also helped me see that not everything was horrible in my life. There were many happy thoughts that were right in front of me.<\/p>\n<p>Now we are headed into November and some new goals with some old goals. I also changed some working on goals because I realized that I was not meeting the goal because of them. It is amazing how one-word change can affect how we do something.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.3dinosaurs.com\/images\/blog\/3dinosaurs-monthlygoals.jpg\" alt=\"3 Dinosaurs Monthly Goals\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>My Goals are always divided up between my blog, family\/home and personal. I break down some big goals into smaller goals each month. <\/p>\n<h2>Blog Goals<\/h2>\n<p>If I can say one thing, it is that one blog goal overtook the whole month. My 31 days which was fun and stressful was the only goal that I got done during the month. I let a lot of other projects get behind, and it did affect more than I thought it would. With all day do keep an eye out for more themed weeks that will happen. Just not a whole month!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Plan out what my month is going to have, so I can get what I want done.<\/li>\n<li>Do a 12 days of Christmas Printables during November with Royal Baloo.<\/li>\n<li>Be ahead on my blog posts at least 3 or 4 days.<\/li>\n<li>Take Weekends off and work only during the week.<\/li>\n<li>Take break from blogging and the computer daily and weekly.

I was at a friends house who said, Cassie, you are so organized. I saw they had my menu and to-do list printable they were using and I&#8217;ll admit that during the month I stopped using them and that is when everything overwhelmed me. It is funny how fast it can happen. I have hopes to do much better this month because I will fill it out.
