October Monthly Goals

October 1, 2014 by Mariah 15 Comments

Monthly Goals

I’m taking the plunge, I’m going to start sharing monthly goals on the blog. I’ve mentioned before how I feel like putting things on here makes me feel more accountable and it makes ideas more concrete. Since I’m in a bit of a transition, and don’t have a lot of structure to my days, I feel this will be really good for me. Time continues to be a tricky lady – my days seem to fly by even more now. When working 8-5 sometimes I could swear it was 3pm and it would only be 11, but now it’s 8am and I’m saying goodbye to P, and in a blink it’s already 3 and I’m wondering what I managed to get done. It will be good to look back at what I get done with all my “free” time.

My big picture goals during my time off are:

Get into a fitness routine

I really want to make exercise a more focused part of my daily life. I’m not sure I will ever be one of those super into fitness people. I think I like drinking and eating too much for all that jazz, but I can do better. P and I are healthy, and we are lucky for that. We need to make sure we are doing everything we can to keep it that way. From what I hear exercise is an important part of that. Are we sure it’s not a ploy by the yoga pant industry? No, oh, ok, just checking 😉

Develop new skills

I’m working on what direction I want to go in job-wise. I’m still trying to figure it all out, but I think exploring new skills is a good start.

Grow this blog

I really want to put myself back into this space. I have a whole list of things I want to do with the blog and now is the time to make that happen.

This month I want to:
  • Do yoga or run/bike at least 3 times a week
  • Complete 5 design/code Skillshare classes
  • Take at least one photography class
  • Finish website redesign

I’m linking-up with Melyssa at the Nectar Collective to share my monthly goals

The Nectar Collective

I’m also joining in the Choose Your Own Adventure link-up. The October theme is food…I can’t pass up a food theme 🙂

Not Entirely Perfect
My food related goals are:
  • Try making chia seed pudding, this is something I’ve been wanting to try for ages
  • Make fresh pasta
  • Make something with pumpkin (to at least acknowledge the season)

I’m keeping my food list short, mainly because my real goal is to try as many new restaurants as I can 🙂 Check out my Discovering San Diego posts where I let you in on all my new adventures!
