For this year, I'm focused on just reading anything at all. Maybe next year I'll join the read harder challenge - by then I'll hope to have developed a better reading habit. :) <br /><br />sukihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03472697694407606703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-9740423297173444502015-01-16T13:49:47.286-06:002015-01-16T13:49:47.286-06:00Great goals!

I hate not accomplishing my goals so that is maybe why I don't make them? <br />I sure hope you can get some help with your sleep deprivation! It is so important that one just can't ignore it!

I think your ...Man, you really kicked butt in 2014! I think your goals last year were all really hinged on the first one, which was a doozy, right!? Without that, the others just would not be as satisfying. Your 2015 goals sounds very doable. The sleep one will be the hardest, but you cannot fix the problem by doing nothing, so you are on the right track! <br /><br />I like the word Goals better than Resolutions, which people tend to just make and then break. I usually set one or two small goals for myself each year but this year I have not quite figured them out. Also, sometimes you realize you want something in the middle of the year (a new job for instance), so I always keep my list updated! I may post about a couple of them at some point though...

I love that these are all bigger but still attainable - so smart!<br /><br />I haven't set any goals per say but I've decided my word for 2015 is "build." Build my Arbonne business, build my family, build our savings, build my confidence that I can do this whole mothering thing.

I am taking it day by day and month by month ons ome of my goals. Like first Saturday of the month I will take care of a major purge of something. The January one was clothes. The goal was get a bag to sell and get a bag to donate. I did that. February will be a bag of books for the library donation bin and the other for garage sale.

That's a terrible problem to have and it's so weird to me that you have them, since you take such good care of yourself! Usually, it's due to too much caffeine, fatty foods, not exercising, etc. <br /><br />My biggest goal for 2014 is to move to my own place. It's a scary but exciting goal for me!Stephanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01664500645286563334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-60267857376878416852015-01-05T18:09:04.551-06:002015-01-05T18:09:04.551-06:00My to-read list on goodreads is actually a list of...My to-read list on goodreads is actually a list of books I own but haven't read, while my wish-list are books I want to read but don't yet have. Which means I know how many books I own and haven't read, which is a crazy high number like 200 or so. So, so ridiculous. For the same reason, I definitely need to make a point to read more of what I own this year as well.<br /><br />And would also agree on the organization. We're looking into moving into a bigger how this year, and figuring out what we want to keep and making or house look more organized (or moving things to storage) will definitely be needed!Shoshanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707241263291051104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-40804396169637077052015-01-05T17:31:01.008-06:002015-01-05T17:31:01.008-06:00Nice job on those goals!

But then, you only moved half a year ago. You might just need more time to adjust to your new place? I needed a year to get used to our city appartment with all the street and airplane noise. Whatever it is I hope you find something that helps soon! What helps for me is Tai Chi and lavender right by my bed.<br /><br />The book challenge sounds very good! But "A book published before 1850"??? Seems tough ;-) For short stories: I LOVE Alice Munro's books and "Knockemstiff" by Donald Ray Pollock.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-38537728544032903322015-01-05T11:43:01.755-06:002015-01-05T11:43:01.755-06:00I know how much you love the big city, but did you...I know how much you love the big city, but did you sleep better when you lived in the condo in the suburbs? I know whenever I'm staying in a downtown area the energy from the city keeps me up at night. Some people feed off of it, to me it creates unneeded pressure that disturbs me emotionally after a while. <br /><br />Great goals! You're going to get hooked on triathlons - fair warning. and I also own way too many books that I haven't read.
