Well, its a new month and I just turned 29 on April 4th. There are so many different big and small goals that I have set for myself to accomplish by the time I turn 30. I have already started working on some of them, and I’m aware that some of the bigger ones I may continue working on for years.
I know it isn’t the normal time of year to talk about goals or aspirations for the year ahead, but I figured now is as good of a time as ever — so here are some of the things that I would like to work on for the year ahead —
- Read at least 1 book a month — preferably something in regards to personal development or health/fitness/wellness. Some of the books on my list to read: Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert, How to get out of your own way by Tyrese Gibson, and You are a Badass by Jen Sincero. I would love to hear some personal development titles from you.
- Be around 25% Body Fat — When I started at FXB in Oct 2017, I was about 47% BF, after the 10 week challenge, break, and an 8 week challenge I ended up at 37% BF.
- “Get out of my own way” — This will most likely be an on going goal for a while, but I will definitely be working on this a lot this year. I have built invisible walls that are holding me back in a few aspects of my life. I plan to break down those walls. I want to become a more confident person all around, but especially at work.
- Another goal that goes along with the above is Love Myself more — everyone around me sees me as a great person — I just need to see that and believe in myself. I have been told that I need to “believe to achieve” — so that is what we will do. It won’t happen over night, but the more I practice it the more it will become natural as with anything.
These are just a few of the things I will be working on accomplishing or at least making progress toward achieving by the time I am 30.
I just read Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod for an accountability group and loved it! Way to go on your journey lady! Keep up the hard work!
I will take a look at that book!! Thank you for the suggestion! Thanks for the kind words! 🙂
❤️’d You are a badass! Great book. I did mine on audible and the narrator was AMAZING! Much love yo you girl!
I also want to read one book a month! We should start a book club! And then meet at either a park or at a healthy food place once a month to discuss!!
Yes!! That would be great!! Maybe Sarah would be interested too?
Great thinking, great writing!
If you’re not on goodreads.com, consider signing up to learn more titles on the subjects you’re reading. If you sign up, look me up. T. R. Boe. If it’s the same Elizabeth Gilbert – she’s made the “2017 Spiritual 100 list at a glance” on watkinsmagazine.com. This book sounds incredible.
I love the idea you want to grow in self-love. 😀 I think that’s what holds people back, not enjoying who they are and not giving themselves all the permission in the world to be who they are.
A movie/book called “The Secret”, by Rhonda Byrne is very encouraging. It’s on Netflix, if you have it. It is on the subject “believing to achieve”, if you haven’t seen it. You may be interested.
I’ll leave with this.
You can totally reform yourself and beliefs. Your well on your way.
Cheers!
You are amazing!! Thank you for all of the positive words!! 🙂
We have some of the same goals, but I’m much older lol! I’ve had You are a Badass since Christmas, but haven’t read it yet. Time to get on it! Are you on Goodreads? You can set a reading goal & track it there. I love it!
Its awesome that you are becoming a runner! So proud of you!
