New Year's Resolutions Check In

[ysabetwordsmith]

We made it to the end of May! \o/ If you have completed some of your short-term goals or subgoals, and/or you're still chugging away at your ongoing goals, then pat yourself on the back. You worked hard for that. We've also passed through of spring. If you're doing seasonal goals, hopefully you have finished the spring one(s), so you can look ahead to the summer batch.

This year I'm trying something new, continuing to track goals at the end of each month. So far it seems to be helping, so that's encouraging. I'm looking at my goal list more often and trying to keep ticking off more of them. The main drawback is that this update becomes more of a chore each month.

Your Resolutions

Some people prefer to make their resolutions in summer. Others refresh their goals.

Other folks are working on their New Year's resolutions from January. Find ways to keep going. What progress have you made?

Did you set any outdoor goals? It's easy to overlook those in December-January when the weather is frigid. For summer, check to see if you have goals for gardening, yardwork, nature trips, etc. If not, you might want to set some goals now. For instance, many folks take a summer vacation, so explore how to plan and save money for one. Even if you're not going on vacation, summer is a good time to focus on relaxation and self-care. Here are some ideas on setting monthly goals.
