Fall Goals
>> Wednesday, October 22, 2008
Fall has always been a time of change and new beginnings for as long as I can remember. It's always seemed odd to me that people set goals at the beginning of a new calendar year, right in the darkest and coldest time of year. Fall in Las Vegas is actually a great time weather-wise. The temperatures drop to the 70s and 80s and the days (as usual) are nice and sunny. It gets dark pretty early here because we are on the eastern edge of the time zone, but the trade off is the nearly perfect weather.
So in keeping with the idea of new beginnings, here are my goals for the next few months. I am trying to keep the goals fairly simple and attainable because sometimes I get expecting too much and then I just throw my hands up.
1. walk 3 to 5 miles, six days a week
2. use my juicer to make a delicious green drink every morning
3. dedicate at least one hour a week to taking photos
4. spend time creating jewelry and give myself full permission to mess up
5. start my Etsy store
6. do yoga 3 times a week
7. launch my new blog with NaBloPoMo (will link to it and all that good stuff)
Are there things you want to accomplish in the next few months? How do you keep yourself on track and accountable?
(In other important news, it looks like nature/scenery is barely eeking out the majority over good food/drinks in the very scientific Why do you love fall? poll. The race is still tight, though, and there are still 13 hours left to vote, so it's really anybody's game.)
