goals for the week of may 23, 2011

on the whole i am pleased with last week’s goal completion. i did have a personal set back due to my in-home physical therapy. i was either doing the exercises incorrectly or too vigorously which resulted in a lot of pain for 3 days and no exercising (besides walking). i am back on track now and see the doctor on tuesday.

below is my list for this week. please share your weekly goals with us in the comments. or write a post and link up at mama manuscript’s meme titled goal planning monday.

1. Exercise

•  Walk 20 minutes 3 times a day
• passive resistance exercises – incorporate changes i get from tuesday’s dr. appt
• soak in hot tub one time a day

2. work: 2-3 hours a day – depends on what happens at my tuesday doctor appt

children’s ministry

• sort out curriculum (to start mid june) for children’s church
• calls for children’s ministry

women’s ministry

• finalize retreat booklet
• wm team meet to finalize other retreat details

pastoral

• study doubting thomas passage

3. miscellaneous

• do all i can to sleep better at night
• write in my gratitude book daily (with a gel pen in a notebook with purple paper it’s quite fun)
• read isaiah
• check in daily with maximize your mornings group
• work on surprise for my daughter’s birthday

 I participate in goal planning monday so I’ll have a record of what I complete each week. I’ll also have a tool to energize my (sometimes) flagging motivation to complete (1) the jobs I tend to avoid or (2) jobs that get overshadowed by the urgent items on my to-do list.
