Reading List Review: June-July 2016

I have to admit, I'm pretty disappointed with the amount of reading I accomplished between June and July--or lack thereof.  All of these side hustles I've been working on leave me little time for reading.  I'm finishing up the most time-consuming one next week, though, so hopefully my next review will be a little longer. Here's what I actually got around to between June and July: The Longing in Me by Sheila Walsh Beauty Begins: Making Peace with Your Reflection by Chris Shook & Megan Shook Alpha What I'm Reading Now: Undefiled: Redemption From Sexual Sin, Restoration for Broken Relationships by Harry…

Goal Setting: Week of June 25, 2016

This has been a challenging week for me, as I was supposed to begin one new job, began one new remote position, and suffered through a lot of back pain.  The pain has been severely limiting my ability to accomplish much, and my goals reflect that.  I just hope that the new medicine the doctor gave me will kick in soon so I can get back on that productivity train! Here's what I actually accomplished this week: Spiritual: Devotions (5/7) Designated prayer time (1/7) Mental: Journal (1/7) Work on 1 cross stitch color Physical: No soda 8 c. of water…

I've been spending some time lately thinking about goals, success, what it means to be successful, and how on earth I can accomplish my goals this month in order to be successful.  I even wrote a post on why many people fail to achieve their goals or be successful.  All of this thinking causes problems for me.  Like it makes me think.  And then I come up with ideas.  And then sometimes I try my ideas.  Sometimes that's scary.  Ha! This time, though, I think I've had something good come out of all of this thinking, and I wanted to…

Goal Setting: Week of June 19, 2016

Even though it's been a couple weeks (once again) since I set goals, my goals are pretty much the same.  I have yet to accomplish much; we've been busy running errands and going to appointments and such things so life has been busy.  This week is still going to be busy, but hopefully I can squeeze out a couple of accomplishments.  We'll see how that goes. Here are my goals this week: Spiritual: Devotions (5/7) Designated prayer time (1/7) Mental: Journal (1/7) Work on 1 cross stitch color Physical: No soda 8 c. of water daily (3/7) Exercise (3/7) Relationships:…

The #1 Reason You’re Not Succeeding at Your Goals

I seem to be a quitter. At not quite thirty years old, I've been reflecting on my years since high school and realizing that I've started a lot of things, but I've yet to become what I'd call successful in business or in my financial life. And as I've come to this realization, I've also had to recognize that part of the reason I am not yet successful is because I've quit so many things. When things don't explode with popularity as fast as I want them to or if my bank account doesn't grow as fast as I want…
