First of all, I need to apologize for having been so absent… There’s really no excuse; once again, I’ve been putting myself last. I know I need to try to be here, as my sense of well-being takes a serious hit when I don’t write…
I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s very important for goals to evolve as we learn what we need to do in order to succeed in weight loss, health, or any other task we set for ourselves.
To that end, I am setting myself some new goals. The first one is to always feel as good as I do right now. I came home from my weekly Intro to Yoga class feeling energized, positive, and relaxed, more so than I’ve felt in a very long time… AND THIS IS THE SECOND WEEK IN A ROW!!!
Last week, this feeling lasted about 24 hours (one too many idiot drivers harshed my buzz bigtime) – I want to see how long I can carry it this week. I also want to start practicing more frequently – going to shoot for at least one extra session this week, either at home or while I’m away this weekend (going offroading!)… This could be very good for me.
My second goal is to write more often – I’m going to try to write here at least three times a week. I’m putting it on my calendar, as an appointment with myself. Maybe the days I don’t get up early for a run, I can get up a LITTLE early to write. OK, let’s say every other day.
Anyway, we’ll see what happens after I get these changes going…
I absolutely agree that our goals have to evolve - well, as long as they evolve in the right direction I guess! I've found myself changing my goals recently too. The first one was just my target date and the weekly loss I wanted to achieve, but the second was more personal, and what I wanted to achieve from the weight loss - a big drive at first was to regain some confidence, and largely that has succeeded, but I find I now have NEW goals that have come to the surface once that first one was achieved! We always need something to aim for, but what that is will change as we do!
