Hello!  I’m very excited about this post today.  Last week I read The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod.

I absolutely loved this book!  I found it inspiring, thought-provoking, and very motivating to get me moving on my goals!  In The Miracle Morning, Hal Elrod explains what he calls “Level 10 Success”.

Being the goal loving girl I am, I decided to come up with 10 goals for each category. (It didn’t come out perfectly, but close enough for me.) By completing each goal, I will be inching closer to living my “Level 10 Life”.

Some of these goals are audacious while others are much smaller. That said, here are my goals!
