This was a busy week for my business. I worked hard wrapping up a big goal and loved having my customers rally in support. The work I’ve done over the last few years continues to bear fruit. Sometimes achieving balance in life is about recognizing the need to focus for a short time on one area, knowing you have time for other goals at a later date. Here is my weekly update towards my Finish Year and 3 in 30 goals.
Run/Walk 30 Miles
I completed four more miles towards this goal at the beginning of the week and pulled something in my ankle. I took off a day to rest it then…it was Sunday. This goal is probably going to be adjusted at least to include my walking and elliptical time.
Write 30 Notes of Encouragement
The latter part of the week found me working very intently on my business, so the cards didn’t get mailed either. However, I’ve been jotting down names as they come to mind and plan to write a few more this afternoon. By Sunday night I will be on track again.
Read for 30 Minutes Per Day
SkipperClanJr will be a high school graduate by this time next year, so my reading this week consisted mostly of a book recommended to me about paying for school without loans. Probably not something I’ll be reviewing here on the blog any time soon, but I am happy with my progress towards the goal.
This week is finally the end of the kids’ school year too so we’ll be plotting for summer. Any fun ideas to share?
Sounds like you have made some great progress!! That’s wonderful that you are getting such great work done for your business!
Looks like your goals are progressing. I think you are doing a great job.
I hope your ankle is feeling better.
I’m grateful to say my ankle feels much better, today started with my personal trainer session and 30 minutes on the elliptical
I’m sorry that you hurt your ankle. Running 30 miles in a week is a big deal; you’ve got lofty goals, but I’m sure you can pull them off!
OH my! 30 miles this month, not in a week, although my husband has done that before
Fantastic job on progressing on your walking goal. I know how hard it can be to set such a goal. Take care of your ankle. Don’t over-exert yourself, but keep an optimistic view on things. Writing 30 notes of encouragement is such a wonderfully caring goal. Not to mention reading a book about paying for school without loans will show your child(ren) how much you cared by take these measures. My parents didn’t really warn me about taking out loans for school and now I’m $65,000 in debt…. my fiancee is over $100,000 (and we went to the same school for the same degree). My suggestion for him is to either hold hold down a part time job or never stop looking and working for grants, scholarships, and free monies. I was able to get a job on campus, which qualified me to partake in a “pay your tuition as you work” program. I was also a regular face in the student financial services office. I would ask question about grants and scholarships, about what I needed to do to qualify, and what they were able to do to help me. You would be surprise at the numerous unknown programs schools have to help theirs students pay for tuition. All students need to do is ask question and never stop trying. Good look on your goals.
