July Goals

Happy Monday! It's a new month! June just flew by. I'm excited, but also kind of dreading that it's July. We have a lot of stuff planned for this month that I'm looking forward to, but I'm not looking forward to the heat.

Since it's a new month, it's time for some new goals. Before we get to the new goals, let's recap on my goals from June. Just a heads up...I didn't do so well on my goals for June.


Recap of June Goals
  • Read 2 books: This was a fail. I don't feel too bad about not accomplishing this goal because I did read one book and I'm almost done with my second book. I read Heart Talk: Poetic Wisdom for A Better Life by Cleo Wade and it was amazing. I'm also reading Take Me With You by Andrea Gibson. I'm taking my time reading Andrea's book because I love it so much. 
  • Try 3 new recipes: This was a fail. I don't even have an excuse for this. I did make a juice that I usually only drink during Summer.
  • Complete 2 Skillshare classes: This was a pass. I took two courses by Elle Luna.  I also completed a course by Dale McManus.  I really loved taking Dale's iPhone photography class. I learned some new tips and techniques. I can't wait to put what I learned to use. If you are interested in signing up for Skillshare, you can sign up here
  • Go for a walk every day: This was a fail. The first half of June was not so great. Raphael and I were not feeling well. When I finally felt better, I just did not feel motivated to exercise or walk at all. 

July Goals
  • Read 1 book
  • Try 2 new recipes
  • Complete 2 Skillshare classes
  • Exercise/Stay Active 3 days a week

  1. I think you had a pretty good June, even if you didn't check off the things on the list - you did other things too!! Good luck with all of your July goals.

    1. June was such a hard and slow month. I do love that it was kind of a slow month. I took my time with everything and it was so needed. It was a nice reminder to myself that I need to slow down.

    1. I'm trying to get better at remembering to bring my reusable cup to Starbucks. I'm also using reusable grocery bags. I've been using them for a while now, but noticed that every now and then, I'll forget to bring them. I also reuse the plastic grocery bags as well so I don't feel too bad if I have to take one. I think I'm going to purchase some reusable straws. I heard that plastic straws can't be recycled.
