January Checkup: The Truth About Managing My Goals

I wanted to let you know how I did this month with my goals. 

A few of my goals were:

1. 1. 1. Being consistent
      2. Daily Devotion and Prayer
      3. Balancing work and fun
      4. Write at least two books
      5. Cooking more instead of eating out

I have cooked at least one meal per week. I didn’t start the first week of January to prepare myself and to look at different plans I wanted to cook. I cooked twice on the second week. I cooked chicken parmesan and spaghetti. The following week, I made shrimp and rice. The third week, I made crab legs and steamed veggies. 

I am working on being consistent by doing a devotion daily and saying a prayer a day. I missed a couple of days. I felt a little overwhelmed with finding a bible plan and I also got sick due to second hand smoke. I have asthma. I believed I missed one or two days for daily devotional.  I am also working on being consistent in my personal. What time I wake up in the morning and giving God thanks for waking me up, what time I take a nap, what time I go to bed, what time I take my vitamins and medicine, etc. I am working on figuring out what time I eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. The time fluctuate depending on numerous things. If I feel like eating, if I leave work on time, if there’s traffic going home, etc.

I haven’t found a good balance of working and having fun. I have been working a lot of hours because I am working on paying for an editor to publish my first book. I am also looking for someone to design my book cover. You can say I am slowly working on getting at least two books published.
