10 Goals for the Week

I’m not sure what I was thinking when I thought I could continue to film, edit, and upload videos without much change in frequency even though my laptop is dead.

Seriously. I should’ve thought about the fact my husband’s computer isn’t mobile. It stays put, and it can’t travel with me from room to room so that I can work on editing videos around whatever the kids are doing. I also should’ve remembered that Ruben likes to use his computer after the kids go to bed, so trying to edit videos at that time doesn’t make sense anymore.

Soooooo…because my laptop won’t be fixed until next month, I’m going to be realistic about my YouTube goals. 🙂

Here’s what I accomplished last week:

Family/Mothering Goals:

1. Continue to work on memorizing two verses of scripture as a family

2. Read to my children 5x

Personal Goals:

3. Do resistance band exercises 4x

4. Walk a total of 100 minutes on the treadmill

5. Read 10 pages of The Lord of the Rings (Part One) The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien — I’ve been using the Habit Streak Pro app to remind myself to read a little each day, and because of that, I’ve been consistently reading more than 10 pages per week, which means I could actually finish this book before the end of the year! 😉

6. Journal 2x

Home Management Goals:

7. Sew a few things in our home that need it — I sewed one pair of pants, but I didn’t get to everything.

8. Wash my makeup brushes

Business Goals:

9. Shoot, edit, & upload three videos to our family YouTube channel — By the end of the week, we had our three videos, but I wasn’t able to edit and upload them all.

10. Shoot, edit, & upload two family vlogs — I filmed two vlogs, but I didn’t get them edited and uploaded.

Here are my goals for this week:

Home Management Goals:

7. Finish sewing things in our home that need it

8. Fill one bag with items to donate

Business Goals:

9. Shoot, edit, & upload one new video to our family YouTube channel — I’m going to keep this goal super simple until my laptop gets fixed.

10. Shoot, edit, & upload one family vlog — While I’m going to work at getting two vlogs filmed every week, for now, my goal will only be to get one vlog up on my channel. If I end up getting both vlogs up on YouTube, that’ll be a bonus!

What are your goals for this week?
