Geddit? Goal post?! Oh, I crack myself up sometimes.
So, my goals for August and how I did on them:
- do more yoga – yes! I did well on this one. Went from almost no yoga to 3ish times a week. I’m still improving on it as well, which is a good thing.
- meditate for ten minutes, 3x a week – ehh. I did it probably once or twice a week, so I made progress, but I didn’t manage 3x a week.
- swim once a week – TOTALLY failed at this one. Barton Springs is close, and it’s cheap, but it’s also always freezing cold – and it’s been so hot outside that I try to stay inside most of the day, only to remember at seven or eight PM that I was planning on going swimming. Whoops.
- sketching regularly – better on this one, but not as good as I could have been.
- make progress on Valkyries – oh man, I totally dropped the ball on this one. I made progress but not near as much as I was supposed to. Must remedy.
Goals for September:
- I think I’ll carry over the meditation & yoga goals, with goals of at least 3x a week for both of them.
- Sketching regularly is something I’d like to keep doing.
- Definitely need to get the first chapter of Valkyries done. Planning this to be done before the 13th, actually.
- I’m submitting an essay to issue #4 of hoax zine that needs to be done before the 31st.
Trying to keep them a little lighter this month, because of the work that needs done on that essay & on Valkyries. I’m pretty confident about being able to get most of these done. I just read Refuse to Choose by Barbara Sher (review coming next week!) and there were some nifty scheduling & time management tools suggested in the book that I’m hoping to make good use of.
If you set any monthly goals, I’d love to hear them and how you did on them! Wishing you luck for this month as well.
