2012 review

Here's my Goals for 2012-and my review of how it went.



I'm a very goal oriented person - if I have unlimited amounts of time to get the goal accomplished. If there's a deadline - forgeddaboudit. That's why I love new years resolutions. I love making statements that could someday be true - and if they never become true, it's totally okay, or if it takes me several years - that's okay too. So here's my list for this year:

-Exercise. I love to do this, and don't take time to do it or allow myself to be lazy. No more excuses. There were tons of excuses.  No motivation, full on lazy, fat and happy.  Also, unhealthy and unhappy at times with my appearance.  This year...motivation, a 24 hour fitness pass from my parents at Christmas, and it's go time.  Gotta look good in a dress.
-Get Organized. Every year I get better, and stumble upon a better system for myself. I'm specifically going to organize my cleaning schedule and find a home for everything in my house. I'm also going to continue my weekly/monthly declutting and trip to Savers to donate it.  Check!  John moved in and I got rid of half my crap.  The place cleans up easy as long as we put things away. 
-I'd like to run a 3k all the way through. This involves training, which will hopefully help with the first goal. I'm looking at purchasing a treadmill this year, which will also help.  See the first goal. 
-Becoming a more serious biker. I need to get my road bike fixed. I would like to do 2, 50 miles next summer and overall just log more miles.  did not do this, again...see first goal.
-Walk everyday. Are you seeing a pattern here? I'm really setting myself up for exercise success! This summer I walked Maggie almost everyday and loved it. John joined me this winter during our vacation (because the weather is insane awesome) and I remembered how much I loved it. arghhh
-Financial betterment. I get better every year. I'm hoping this time next year I have some savings - that's my goal for this year, to actually save money to the end of the year. I'm going to be doing some bill getting rid of, and that will help incredibly (-cable, -massage envy, -bank loan).  CHECK!  and I have money in the savings for 2013.  whoo hooo!
-Because it's 2012, and the world might end, I'd like to live everyday to the fullest and try to keep the energy around me positive. I want to think twice before complaining, or getting angry (is it worth the energy spent?). I want to be able to put my best person out there, and if the world ends - I'll go out on a high note.....ha!  Check!  For most parts of life that I was focusing on, I've kept the energy around me positive.  Love it!  It's a lesson I will continue to teach and reinforce in my life and all around me.



Cheers to the new year! I hope everyone enjoys their chance to start over and be the person they want to be. I wish for everyone good health, and great wealth.
