My 2014 Goals: Year-End Update

Source

Here's a final post looking back at 2014 before I move full-speed ahead into the new year!

I'm fairly pleased with how I did with my goals overall.  However, I seemed to struggle with the same ones month after month.  Below, I simply crossed out those goals that I was fairly consistent with throughout the year and gave a brief update on how I did with the others.  I definitely lost sight of some of these goals during the last couple of months of 2014.

Spiritual
1.  Review two memory verse passages each month.  I did well with this until the summer; even when school resumed, I didn't regain my momentum.
2.  Send a note or e-mail of encouragement to someone every week.
3.  Continue writing my "list of gifts" each morning.
4.  Keep a prayer journal. 
5.  Start each morning listening to good music.  I can't stay I was consistent with this all year.  While I still want to make this a priority in our home, it will not likely be on my 2015 goal list.

Personal
1.  Read through my 2014 reading list.  I read 47 of the 50 books.
2.  Take a cooking class.
3.  Devote 30 minutes a week to writing projects.  Let's just say it was rare that this happened.

Family
1.  Continue monthly date nights for all.  We were hit-and-miss with this.  However, my husband and I are going to be more intentional about our date nights in the coming year.
2.  Do one specific thing to encourage my husband each week.  I missed this pretty regularly in November and December. 
3.  Plan one special homeschool day each month.

Physical
1.  Exercise at least 20 minutes a day, 4 times a week.
2.  Eat 3 servings of fruits and vegetables at least 4 days a week.
3.  Follow along with Crystal's 12 Months to a Healthier You Challenge. 

I'm excited about setting new goals for 2015 and look forward to sharing them here next week!
