January Goals Round Up

I had 7 goals set up for January. Tonight I opened my planner and felt a little defeated when I saw the goal list because I didn't feel like I can truly cross off any. But then I reframed my perspective and took it as a victory anyway. I aimed for the stars but landed on the moon, still higher than KLCC, no?

1. Shake 2 times a day
I wanted to form the habit of taking one shake for breakfast and one for 4 pm snack, and this has been happening more often than not. For February, I'm tightening up this habit.

2. Gym twice a week
Didn't happen at all. I had however, been fast walking around the neighbourhood once or twice a week, doing planks during work breaks, did yoga twice. For February, gym is happening. I'm actually feeling the need to be on the treadmill, shocking!

3. Solat 5 times a day
My problem is Subuh, I'm doing okay with the other 4 prayers. February, tightening up this habit by sleeping no later than midnight.

4. Set up ASB savings
I don't trust other people with my money hehe.. I guess that's why it was subconsciously pushed aside. Still not sure if I should.

5. Set up a team for work project
The project is going to really pick up in April, I'll wait until end of March. No point in making freelancers wait for work that is not here yet.

6. Meet up with expat friend for another project
Didn't happen, maybe Feb I'm not sure. This project is still at the researching stage. I'm doing this with my friend Emmy but she's got a new job and is super busy, we need to regroup.

7. Save RM 300
Finally, one goal 100% crossed off!

I'm glad I did this January round up. I read somewhere that when we promise ourselves something and didn't keep it, we lose trust in ourselves. I don't want to do that to myself, and this summary of my monthly goals proves that I am making progress to be better, I can trust that "myself" is working to get there.

Life is fluid. We can plan and set targets, but let's not forget to save some wiggle room. Now excuse me while I go tweak my February goals :-)

Happy clean living!
