I alwa...I, too, like goals when they are authentic. I always begin each new school year with professional goals, yet the contrived goals I have to create each year that come with strings attached and rules get in the way of my authentic goals. Our professional goals always have to fit within certain boxes and never match up with what I actually hope to accomplish on a personal level. For example, there was no way to use my entire dissertation/doctoral process as a professional goal... I have not been good about writing down goals in awhile, but I do really well with working towards something I have my mind set on.

I like feeling like I have a direction of some sort in the back of my head. I've slowly learned from you not to put too much pressure on accomplishing my goals, so thanks for that : ) I definitely like the idea of weekly, short-term goals for you.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04793577490918023099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-12291542565197187212014-08-25T12:57:57.257-04:002014-08-25T12:57:57.257-04:00I am a big fan of goals, I don't always write ...I am a big fan of goals, I don't always write them down though and more often than not I have them in my head like when I'm saving for a trip or training for a race. I also love to-do lists but they can really stress me out, especially when they get super long like my to-do lists are at work right now! I like the idea of setting 1 - 2 small goals per week though to keep you focused! <br /><br />Hope you enjoy this last uninterrupted week with Max!

My at home one is usually shorter and is things like workout, make dinner and then one thing pertaining to house cleanliness. My work list is usually never ending but that's how it goes for me these days. <br /><br />Wishing you and Eric luck as you return to work (unrelated: I didn't realize Eric worked for a school, too. How did I miss that? I need to get it together!)Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10673644115797850874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-19445423507053757422014-08-25T07:22:08.827-04:002014-08-25T07:22:08.827-04:00I can't believe your summer break is coming to...I can't believe your summer break is coming to an end already! It's crazy how fast it went by... I hope you are able to strike a balance this week of enjoying your last full week with Max but getting things done so you feel ready for the first day of school! <br /><br />I set big goals at the beginning of the year but besides that I don't really intentionally set goals. I have had a goal of working out every day each month since April so that has been a fun/challenging goal. But besides that I don't really set specific goals. I do make to do lists, though, so maybe those are kind of mini goal lists!Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.com
