January 2012 Goals & Plans

Instead of making yearly resolutions... I decided to focus on monthly goals that I know are attainable.  Some are things I want to do and some are things I need to do.  I am hoping to keep up with it and to report back throughout the month when I have met my 6 goals.  

 What are some of your goals, plans, or resolutions for 2012?

30 Things to Stop Doing to Yourself

I saw this link posted on Facebook and thought it was well worth a share on the blog.  It is 30 Things to Stop Doing to Yourself.

Here are some that really stood out to me.

4. Stop putting your own needs on the back burner

I think too often as mothers we put everyone else's needs before our own.  I am definitely guilty of this and need to start taking some time for just Melissa... this does not mean I will stop making my family's needs a priority... it just means I will realize I have needs too.

6. Stop trying to hold onto the past

You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last one.  This has been hard for me...especially recently.  I definitely want to work on this.

There are more that I think I can work on as well.... what a great article.

Which of the 30 do you think you can work on?
