Give yourself permission to explore a new goal.

I am going to explore losing 40 lbs. it feels impossible, but I'm going to explore that.

I decided to break out of shell and step outside of my comfort zone, I will start volunteering
a free clinic, doing massages!

My side projects, they are a bit forgotten

i am going to temporarily move away from the physical goals and hit into the financial goal of spending time on my 401k and retirement issues.
then on the FUN side, i will make a goal of playing a little piano 10 minutes a day minimum.

I'm good with my goals.

Hmmm....a new goal. The ones I've talked about on this track have all been related to either trumpet or fitness, so my new goal should be something different. My goal will be to do some writing every day this week!

I'm allowing myself plenty of time to think of my next goal: finding a new job/building my client base. They go hand in hand, and will allow me to leave my current position. That's great motivation!!! :)

Hmm a new goal huh? I personally would like to just accomplish my major one of completing my degree before I start another, but I give myself the permission to put thoughts out to the universe to bring concepts into my head. I think that should be enough for now, what say everyone else?

Give yourself permission to explore a new goal.

How to do it - Take a few moments to think about a current goal you're seeking. It doesn't have to be a big one; it can be medium-sized or even small. Does it make you feel inspired or not? If one (or more) of your goals leaves you feeling less than excited, allow yourself the space and flexibility to try something new in its place.

Why it matters - When we make goals for ourselves, it's easy to seek success in the areas in which we're most comfortable. While this familiar territory can help us avoid failure, it can also prevent our goals from helping us learn and grow. By taking on a different sort of goal and facing fears of the unknown, you create the potential to uncover a new inspiration that could enrich your life.

Fun Fact - Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, attributed his idea to include a variety of typefaces for Macs to a calligraphy course he once visited during college.

Well, paying off my old bills leaves me less than excited, but not paying them off is not an option. So let me see if there's something else ...

Just kidding. Actually it sounds very exciting.

I've dug through all my goals as mentioned here on this board, and I just haven't come up with anything that isn't just wonderful. Every goal I have, I consider thrilling and exciting. But almost all of them tie into getting an income. The only mutable goal I can think of would be to put my blog on ice for a few weeks and make some immediate income selling some affiliate product. While I might have done that three months ago (if I had known of such a possibility), I think doing that now would be just bad for the energy I've been building with this travel blog which I want to get rolling first.

So that leaves: no change, stick to plan, forge ahead. Get plan A going, =then= I can add plan B.

Thank you for the encouragement, Nancy M.!

Day 5, Sherri T., and we won! Thank you for being a great partner!

Well, be good, everyone, and have a great rest-of-the-week!

I am not certain about what goal that I might persue that I am not yet comfortable with. I have many goals in mind; in fact, I have so many goals that I wish to achieve that I cannot possibly work on all of them, or even think about some of them, until the more doable ones are achieved. I believe that I would be overwhelmed and freeze then accomplish nothing. But, if I pick them off, one by one, they will be done, hopefully, in an orderly, properly prioritized fashion. At least, that is my hope! Maybe putting my goals in a list, either paper or computer note, would help me compose my thoughts and decide about that priority.

Stephen, we are at Day 5! It was a good time! I hope to do this again with you soon! Hugs!

Everyone have a great day.
