We are almost wrapping up the first month of 2020. We are 1/12 done with the new year. Are you still on track with your resolutions or have you given up?
The joy of life is that you can start over at any point. Don’t have the all or nothing mindset. Do your best and give yourself grace. I wanted to spend this week reflecting on how we did with our resolutions for the first month. Go check out the original post for all the details on our life goals.
These I’m struggling with a little bit more. BUT, I’m making progress. I’m slowly making habits that encourage positive growth. I move my body daily, but sometimes it’s not with how I like. It’s worked out for the majority of this month that I’m able to work out before heading out for chores which is amazing for me. If I don’t get it done in the morning, it doesn’t get done. Which is fine. I move a lot on the farm.
Eating foods that bless my body. Some days that means protein and veggies and some days that means Taco Bell. You have to decide what this means for you. I know that super processed foods don’t make me feel very good. They don’t affect Matt. It’s knowing your body. That doesn’t mean I never eat processed food. That means that I’m making a more concentrated effort to cook our food at home. Then packing the leftovers to take with us for lunch the next day. I could do better at this. It all comes down to preparation. I’m working on figuring it out. And giving myself grace. And it’s okay if I don’t get it right all the time.
Last life goal was to bless somebody else every month. My sister had her fourth baby this month. We took food out to her and family. This goal is intentionally vague. Some months it may mean food, some months it may mean a call or text and some months may be doing something. The goal with this one is to look outside of the four walls of our house and notice the rest of the world. See other people and help in a way that we can.
What were your life goals for this year? How are you doing with them?
