I took a break from the blog/facebook world last week, mainly because I am feeling run down and overwhelmed. Essentially, I just gave myself a break last week about everything. It’s been really tough since school started to maintain all of my “branches” (blog post on that to come!), and I’ve realized that I may be setting myself up for failure more times than I’d like to admit. It’s something I’m always working on! So, here is my monthly goals post!

September Goals:

Business:

• Read “Getting Things Done” by David Allen
• Watch the next two videos in the reSTART workshop.
• Start brainstorming for Harry Potter. I’m realizing, though, that I may not get to it this year, which is kind of sad, but I’m still going to work to do it in October!
• Continue to stay caught up on my photo challenge.
• Rock at the four weddings this month.
• Create a 2014 wedding guide.
• Redo my website.
• Have my contracts reviewed by a lawyer.

Personal:

• Finish reading the Chamber of Secrets.
• Finish Master Your Metabolism.
• Exercise more often.
• Do our photos 🙂
• Create our wedding canvases.
• Make at least three things from our 101 Things You Stop Buying and Start Making cookbook!

It was a rough month, and it flew by! I think the biggest reason why I haven’t been so successful with my goals is that I forget to check on them. It wasn’t until the last week of September that I realized I didn’t remember what my goals were for this month! That’s half the battle! I’m going to make more of an effort to check on my goals on a regular basis to remind myself of what I’m actually trying to accomplish.

OCTOBER goals:

Business:

• Watch the next two videos in the reSTART workshop.
• Read two chapters of “Getting Things Done”
• Revamp my website (I decided that I liked it how it is, and just need to change a few minor things here and there!)
• Get September monthly tasks completed.
• Look into buying my own softbox and lightstand – and research wireless triggers for my specific flash.

Personal:

• Keep the balance. Easier said than done, but I’ve started to be more firm with my boundaries, and I need to keep it up! It’s when that balance gets tipped that I start to feel really exhausted and overwhelmed.
• Go on a date with Steven.
• Read a chapter of Master Your Metabolism.
• Read a chapter of Case for Faith.
• Get back into reading the Bible again.
• Drink two bottles of water, and lemon water, everyday!
• Continue exercising.
• Do calm yoga at least two mornings a week.

I feel like October is already half over, so I’ve gotta get moving! 🙂
