Made it to the airport with plenty of time. Been a little worried about the airports cancelling flights due to the government shut down but it looks like things are as scheduled, for now.
I am really proud of myself. I woke up prepared to go with everything ready to go. I’ve got an hour until boarding time so I’m going to walk the airport to get my steps in.
It’s going to be a wonderful week away from home and I am going to miss my husband and my precious doggos.
I really want to make the absolute most of this week. I am going to be completing a final training towards a certification I am doing. I am also going to have my first longer solo trip. And an opportunity to continue to lower my cortisol levels and keep focusing on healthy habits.
Honestly, it may seem like I have not accomplished anything this past year, but I would be lying to myself. I am literally in a different place than I was last year. The fact I’m leaving my house more is testament to my efforts. I’m making more money. My sleeping schedule is a lot better. Even if I was scared to reflect back on my 2024 and quarter goals, I still made progress. Little progress, but some progress. Now imagine myself a year from now if I stopped slacking and kept going. What if I continue doing my robotic affirmations, sticking to a schedule, learning new skills and languages, listening to affirmations/subliminals, meditating? So many possibilities and I am so excited!
These photos were taken by me when I went to Nee York for a day trip with my friends!
So in January I created some New Year’s resolutions. I just went a little crazy with it just for the fun of it. Next I created my first quarter goals for the first three months. So basically I have resolutions for the three months. Due to circumstances and events, to avoid feeling overwhelmed and like a failure, I wanted to break those goals down into daily habits.
Goal - Have my dream body:
Habits: booty/legs three times a week, upper body and abs two times a week, incorporate more protein in my meals, actually go out of my way to cook more meals instead of eating lazy meals.
Goal - Read at least 12 books
Habit: Read everyday, finish a book or two per week.
These are a few examples I have. For the month of April, I want to reflect on my first quarter goals and see how much I’ve accomplished and note any improvements I can make for the next quarter.
I actually accomplished reading 13 books for the first quarter which is actually surprising lol. I’ve been pretty consistent with my work outs. I had a few lazy weeks but I haven’t had a week where I didn’t work out at all! Pats myself on the back.
For the next three months, I want to work on these areas of my life:
Finances
My Home Environment
My Mental Health
I would usually use ChatGPT to give me some ideas on habits I can try to incorporate in my day to help with bettering these areas. However, it would just give basic ideas, oh well lol.
I create a habit tracker for each week and then do a week review to see how I did and how I can improve for the next week. Some habits I can have on my habit tracker in order to accomplish better outcomes in the three areas above are:
Educate myself on interior designing
Educate myself on Feng Shui
Meditate or do EFT tapping most days of the week
Take my Magneisum Glycinate supplement every night
Journal most days of the week
Complete the gratitude practice from The Magic by Rhonda Byrne
Practice Python and any other statistical programming language a few days of the week.
These are just a few I have on my mind but as the weeks go, I’ll probably come up with more and slowly incorporate them into my day.
Here’s to a WONDERFUL second quarter!
Ensure that you’re embracing positive changes, and addressing wins and missteps productively.
My husband and I and another couple who we are friends with are completing a 12 week challenge together where we all set our own goals and check in twice per week about it.
Today marks start of week 3.
I hit 90 percent of my goals week 2 (compared to 72% week 1) which was huge. I was more active. I improved my average steps by 1000 and was able to fast for a little longer on average. I saved the amount I set out to and my husband and I sat down and had a discussion about our money. We discussed solutions for our money issues which felt good.
During week one I stopped sleeping with phone near me and week two I kept using the phone and I noticed a difference. Staying away from phone at night and first thing in the morning is so much better for me.
This upcoming week I wanna hit my work out goals again and see if I can market my side business a little bit more to increase revenue for Feb and March.
I made it home and reunited with my Husband and doggies and I’m ready for tomorrow. Ready for a new chapter. Going into third week of the 12 week year.
Every Sunday my husband and I do a Sunday reset with CALMER: Clean up, Accounts check, Laundry, Meal prep, Exercise, Review Calendar for the Week.
Tomorrow marks an important day. I return home after checking off really big goals in the first half of November. Ready for the second half. Let’s do this.
