Goal 1: To run a 5k (hopefully for an animal organization).--I feel like I am making progress here but it's limited. I don't have a gym membership, so I only run outside. I also try to run on relatively flat ground, so that means I have to drive about 15-20 minutes to the place that I run. I have jogged the past 2 Sundays because the weather has been nice enough to, but that's been it. As soon as the weather gets nicer, I will incorporate more runs into my workouts. Running a 5k will probably be something I try to complete during the summer.
Goal 2: Blog more (at least once a week). Yay!! I have been keeping up with this. Most weeks, I have been blogging about twice. This week has been a little busier so it's been just once. However, I am keeping up with my "at least once a week" goal!
Goal 3: Learn to use my new camera--I have been working on it! I feel like there's so much to learn but I have been learning a little at a time. I really want to take a photography class, but just not right now.
Goal 4: Incorporate more upper body workouts (at least 2-3 times a week). Yay!! I have been doing this too! I do upper body workouts at least twice a week. I feel like I am getting a little more toned and making some progress in this area!
How are you doing on your New Year's goals/resolutions? I would love to hear about it!
Well done! Those are excellent goals. I love that you want to run a 5k for an animal organization. And I love the name of your blog! I'm a vegan raising a guide dog trying to lose weight :)
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I bet raising a guide dog is very rewarding!
ReplyDeleteI never write my goals down but maybe this is why most of them fails. Congrats, you made a nice piece of design.
ReplyDeleteI can suggest you ( for next year maybe ) to add some checkpoints to every goal.
Once I've made something cool that worked. I wanted to lose about 30 pounds. I took a paper and a pen and I made up a scale where the increments where pounds lost by me. After every pound lost I "moved" the marker forward completing the "journey". I worked like hell and my goal was completed much faster than I was expected. Maybe other reason is that I set a small reward for every goal completed
I like that idea, Lucian!
ReplyDeleteAwesome motivational tool! So positive, congrats on sticking with it!
