What are your goals for this week?
Sandra, it looks like you made some really good progress on your goals last week. I didn’t do too bad on mine even though I forgot to refer back to them last week. I wouldn’t want anyone to see the mess my files are in my computer. I really have to get a better system for files. But at least a few weeks ago I cleaned up my desktop. I’m struggling to find things but the computer desktop looks better. ๐
Hi Shelly, my desktop often looks cluttered when I’m working on posts and forget to clean things up afterwards. Sometimes I don’t even notice for a while, because I keep my browser open for days. ๐ It’ll be nice to get things cleaned up this week.
I like the idea of writing your weekly goals down! I need to start doing this at the beginning of the week and be realistic about it. With a 7 month old, even when I do write a to-do list, it tends to be unattainable and eventually just overwhelms me. A few bite sized goals, especially when it comes to my blog (because it’s still so new!) is a great idea. The 4 posts goal you have is something I try to keep up with, but I think it would help if I actually had it on a calendar so I could mark it off.
Hi Caitlin! Goals setting is definitely something that helps me move forward in different areas of life on a weekly basis. With a seven month old, set small, realistic goals that you know if they’re on your to-do list, you can make time to accomplish. ๐
Thanks for visiting my blog, and I hope you have a great rest of the week, Caitlin!
