Goal Getter

by Nicci on 09/09/2009

I think it’s time for Nicci to write down some goals and get moving!

What is a goal? The purpose toward which an endeavor is directed; an objective.

Personally I prefer mini goals b/c they help me stay focused & not get side tracked. I’m going to start writing down a few weekly goals to help me in every day life!

Nicci’s Weekly Goals:

drink more water
stop drinking Sweet Tea (Chris loves it & were buying a jug every week)…it’s like crack!
go to bed before 10pm
clear off my office desk everyday before I leave work

Just a few, but you have to start somewhere.

What are your goals right now! (fitness related or not)

Jamie Walker September 10, 2009 at 1:33 pm: I do almost everything in a bowl or wrapped in lettuce and its not becuase I don’t eat carbs, I just think the tortillas and bread sometimes overpower the goodies inside! I actually love carbs!

Amanda @ Panda Lunch September 9, 2009 at 8:24 pm: Hey there! Just found your blog. I love this post! Goals are definitely a good thing. We share the same goal of getting into bed before 10! Lately my blogging habits have been keeping me up a bit too late!
Nicole September 9, 2009 at 7:30 pm: I like the fact that you are writing your goals down on your blog – that way they are permanent and there for everyone to see. I think it helps to make you feel more accountable. Great idea!
Quisha September 9, 2009 at 6:13 pm: i completely agree with you on the sweet tea. my only thing is coffee. i get used to having it every day at work after lunch. about a half a cup but still. i feel like it helps to settle my food, which it may. i must try harder. thanks for the inspiration lol.

Lesley September 9, 2009 at 1:44 pm: I love the blog make over, it looks awesome!! : )
Melinda September 9, 2009 at 1:31 pm: Little goals are excellent. The reward factor helps to keep us going. By reaching the small goals we will always feel good about ourselves, but with a goal a few weeks down the road it seems like forever to get that reward. I agree that small goals along the way towards a big goal is the best way to get things done. As for my goals, it would be to exercise 4 times a week. It’s tough with my schedule.
sue September 9, 2009 at 1:07 pm: my goal is to fit in some exercise while i’m traveling this month. it’s been hard though! i tried sweet tea for the first time a couple years ago when i visited the south. i couldn’t believe i had never had it before- that stuff is good!
Taylor September 9, 2009 at 12:03 pm: This week my goal is to eat more fruit and rely less on bars.
