Resolutions and Goals

Enrichment Night

This year we are going to focus on health and gratitude.  

In our January meeting not only did we enjoy pizza, good conversation and some planning, but we talked about those pesky New Year’s resolutions that we love so much.

I personally enjoy setting goals.  Not only that, but I think it is very important.  It’s like setting the destination on your GPS, if you don’t program something in who knows where you may end up.  Have a destination in mind.  Begin with your core desires.  What do you want this year to look like?  What do you want to do or do better?  When you look back in six months or at the end of the year what do you want to have accomplished?  Once you know what you want then you should ask yourself why.  If you are not very clear about the why chances are you won’t have success in achieving this goal.  So get clear on the why and then break down into smaller steps how you will accomplish it.  Put it on your calendar and make it part of your schedule.  Create habits.  Do the things that scare you.  Do the things you keep putting off.  Remember, if you have to eat a frog do it first thing in the morning.

We gifted everyone small notebooks to get you started on writing down goals and also to keep track of the tender mercies, and the blessings that appear in our lives.  Remember, remember is what we are taught in the scriptures and if you are like me you won’t remember a thing if you don’t write it down.  I challenge you to set some goals this year and to write down the things you are grateful for.  Let’s have a wonderfully healthy year filled with loads of gratitude!
