Whoo hoo for Mondays!  (I know, I’m one of those weird people who are excited to flip to a new page on my planner and see a blank slate, ready to be filled with memories and experiences.)

I have been asked a few times why I share my goals each week.  I do it for a few reasons.

The first is that I hope by listing my goals, it will inspire you to set some goals of your own for the week.  Even if it’s one goal and you finish it, that’s great!  That’s one thing that wasn’t done before!

The second reason is because it’s a great way for me to keep track of my goals.  I can find this post on my smart phone and look up what I have on my list if I find myself with 10 minutes of down time or for those times I’m waiting for Jason.

The final reason is it keeps me accountable.  When I list my goals on the blog, you all see them.  You also can all see how I did the next week.  It  helps keep me motivated because I want to get them finished!

If you are curious about setting goals, try one new goal this week.  (There are links at the bottom of this post to help you get started setting goals).

How was your week last week?  You can read about ours here!  I am really hoping for a week of accomplishing a lot but also a week of building some fun memories.
