March was a very tumultuous month for me. Lots and lots of good things happened, but I have never had so many technical issues ever on the blog as I had in the month of March.
If you also follow my facebook page, you will have noticed a few inspirational quotes, like the one above posted on the page! Through out the techno troubles I found it really helped to visualise what the end result was I was working towards. In this case it was a more secure site with a fabulous new design.
It didn’t make anything work better or quicker, but it reminded why I needed to persist and stay the course. I am still visualising this at the moment as I await for more changes to kick in behind the scenes so I can implement the new design…..
Personal Goals – March Review
I did however spend more time and emotional energy on the techno stuff, so it did impact on other goals I was trying to achieve.
| Goals for 2012 | Key Tasks For March | Review March Activity | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. - Blog | - Complete make over of blog, to be completed by March. - Grow the blog to a business. | Implement new design. Firm up business plan for 2012. | The design is yet to go on the blog. Due to significant security issues with my host, I needed to changes hosts. The transfer of the blog from one hosting provider to another is at this stage still not complete. Until this happens I cannot implement the new design :(. |
| 2. - Family | Reintroduce a regular games night. | The older boys have not been joining in as much as I would like. I need to be more creative with the games, so they will want to play. | Games night just hasn't worked for us. What has worked is a session at some point across the weekend that involves as much physical activity as possible! So far we have done things like: These types of activities have been so much fun and enjoyed by all. |
| 3. - Partner | Weekend away on our own (carry over from 2011!) | Lock down a date for when we will do this and explore options for the kids. | How hard could it possibly be to lock down a date? Not done as yet...... onto next month's task this goes. |
| 4. - Me | Change the way I eat - more balanced (less carbs). | Find new lunch ideas that do not involve bread! | First half of the month was fantastic. As the techno issues engulfed me, I went back to what was easy, what was known and comfort carb eating! Another one for next month as well! |

I’ve been writing out daily goals for the last couple of weeks and have found I’m accomplishing more, but I like the idea of doing monthly and annual goals, as well, so the daily goals support something bigger.
Wow, so impressed with your goals, I really should think more clearly about what I want to get done, I seem to just plod on and get through each day, then look back and wonder where all that time went!
I love this image in your post. Pinned it
