31 Years of Goals

I haven't posted all year. and that bugs me. I need to be more active in my life. Recently I read a book by Hal Elrod, The Miracle Equation. This book was amazing, and I recommend reading it.

Hal helped me to think, what do I want in life?

Up until now, I have been controlled by my mental health. That ends today.  I want to be in control. To be in control, I feel that I need to create and stick to goals. I am researching more goal ideas as it has been hard to think for the last few months. I found a few resources and have thought of the following:


  1. Practice mindfulness on a daily basis at least 5 minutes
  2. Read 100 books by graduation from grad school
  3. Finish Grad school
  4. Become goal-focused
  5. Move into my own home
  6. Pay off debt
  7. Find someone to marry
  8. Recover from addiction
  9. Pay off car 
  10. Lose weight to be under 145 pounds
  11. Run a mile
  12. Walk 10,000 steps every day for 2 weeks
  13. Write a love letter to future me
  14. Practice yoga once a week
  15. 30 days of Figure 8 Fitness program
  16. Read the entire book of scriptures
  17. Read 30 minutes a day for 30 days
  18. Go to the gym for 30 minutes 5 days a week for 30 days
  19. Hold a plank for 60 seconds
  20. Complete a 2,000 piece puzzle
  21. Answer 300 questions about me
  22. Become a licensed counselor
  23. Have CSAT certification
  24. Finish all the books that I have accumulated both in print and digital
  25. Wake up on time every day for one month
  26. Learn more skills for working with people with mental illness while focusing on my own recovery
  27. Journal every day for 30 days
  28. Stop a bad habit
  29. Watch less TV in a day, to one show a day and spend that time doing other things
  30. Finish all crochet projects
  31. Leave comfort zone and speak up and spark a conversation with a strange
That is one goal for every year I have been alive. Which seems doable in the next 10 years. I'll change it and add to it as I see fit and when I complete goals. I will use MyOrganizedLife to organize all these goals
