Conquering My Goals With Commit30

This post may contain affiliate links. 

I decided to take up journaling again to help me stay focused on my goals. I've been using a fitness journal that I really like, and I plan to continue to use it. But I came across the Commit30 journals. And there was something about the idea of doing something (small changes to create big results) for 30 days that really appealed to me. I like how each day there was a goal/purpose to help me obtain the overall 30 day goal.

It's not an all or nothing approach. I see it as a daily intention kind of thing.

However, I am struggling with my monthly goals for the year. The Commit30 journal has you plan out your goals and vision yourself a year from now. Yeah,
I'm having some difficulties with that one. I've come up with a goal for 5 months,  but after that I'm not sure.

I believe the idea behind it is to have a vision and create a plan. I admit it may be fear that is holding me back from filling in the entire year. Anyone else ever afraid to dream big? I think it's time for a little more self evaluation. But I'm excited to see what being committed to something for 30 days will bring.

I actually bought the Fitness Journal. One thing that I don't like about it is that it's not dated. I hate writing in dates on a calendar ha. But I do like that you can start it at any time which is exactly what I'm doing. I'm starting on November 27th. Because it wasn't dated, I was able to write in the dates that I needed. You can check out the journal from Commit30's website here.

I'm excited to see what these small changes can bring.

Running My Life

Wow, has it really been 2 years since my last post? I suppose that I allowed life to get in the way. For any faithful blog readers, I apologize. Although, I'm not sure how many people actually read blogs anymore. I think most people use other social media platforms.  (By the way, drop by and say hi on Insta. )  But for some reason, each year when I pay for my google domain, I can't seem to let it go. As silly as it sounds, this little space is mine. And lately I've been struggling with ownership and acceptance. And my domain renewal was a not so gentle reminder that I have a voice .  Seriously, you'd think by 48 that I'd have this figured out - nope - apparently not. However, I am wise enough to know that we have a choice to allow situations to harms us or make us stronger. I'm choosing to let this mid-life quandary make me stronger. And because of this, I'm setting goals, taking charge, and reexamining priorities.  Movin' on... 

Self Care Is Not Selfish It's Necessary

It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. And I'll say it just one more time in case you didn't hear me. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. I have found through experience that when I'm not taking care of myself, not only do I suffer but my family suffers. So ditch the mom guilt and take the time that you need! I have a tendency to keep pushing my needs aside until I reach a breaking point. We've had a very busy fun summer so far. However, I've struggled to get some quality ' me ' time to decompress. I'll spare you the meltdown that ensued. But the reality check that followed prompted me to take action.

When The Planner In You Must Be Flexible

In case you haven’t figured this out by now, I’m a planner. I know - shocker right?!? :) So although I love substitute teaching, it’s making the planner in me anxious. And it’s been reeking havoc on my workouts. Basically the morning of or maybe the night before, I find out if I’m working. So my day ( that I thought I had planned ) can be turned upside down in an instant. But, truthfully, isn’t that really the same with everyone?
