Well, that didn’t go according to plan.

I mean, my whole life could be summed up in that sentence. I knew this quarter was going to be tough, but I did not expect it to start out with so many uncompleted goals. I also forgot about an event that took place during the month so I had an extra day off of writing that I didn’t account for while making my plans

July Goals

1. Write 4 blog or medium posts. Incomplete.
2. Post 4 YouTube videos Complete
3. Read 4 books Complete, barely.
4. Write 62pages Incomplete, I managed 54
5. Type 31,000 words Incomplete, although I got close with 29,765
6. Fill 1 notebook Complete, I actually filled two!
7. Pay bills Complete
8. Daily habits at 50% Incomplete
9. Finish 1 skein of yarn Complete
10. 30 Day Challenge Incomplete

August has already started off on a shaky footing as I forgot to give myself adequate time to get back into routine after going on a trip. It’s okay, I’m dusting myself off and getting back onto the horse again.

August Goals

1. Write 4 blog or medium posts
2. Post 4 YouTube videos
3. Read 4 books

August and September are also going to be filled with many interruptions and trips, so I guess we’ll see how well it turns out.

What goals did you set for yourself this month?
