I'm grateful for goals. They keep me moving forward (or if I'm honest they keep me thinking about moving forward. *grin*) But I do appreciate the motivation they can give me. Goals have been tough for this Type A chick to get her head wrapped around. I have a tendency to take them to one extreme or another. As I've gotten older I have been trying to learn the balance of having goals, I'm getting there - I have by no means arrived but I'm getting there. Goals I've been working on lately include walking 1000 miles in 2014 (thanks to my friend Sherry for this idea and for breaking it down into realistic numbers!) and trying to drink at least an equal amount of water per day that I drink of other things. What about you? How are you grateful for goals?
I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
