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.

Wow!  This past week and a half has been such a whirlwind of phone calls and status updates and excitement about my book Courageous: Living the Fearless Life God Intended, which was released on Amazon on April 29, 2016.

Judge Less, Encourage More: Opening Up About the Struggle Within

The frightening truth about financial difficulty and outside employement As I write this, I am sitting in my car at softball practice after having written three book reviews to post on three consecutive Fridays. I am feeling all sorts of things right now as we face financial hurdles ahead of us. It's been a tough several months since the beginning of the year. Sometimes I want to panic the more I see our bank account dwindle. It might be time to take a Loan out, which I don't mind doing at times like this because I know it's all part…
