determination is the key

Physical:

Whats wrong- too over weight and just not happy with the outer appearance.

What I am going to do- (after my foot surgery) join the REC center gym and commit to go. put up a picture of my current self to motivate myself. 

Financial:

Whats wrong- Not much. I accomplished the goal of getting into a house. Now. I don't want to work by the end of the year.

What I am going to do- Make a plan. Pay down debt with every paycheck. Learn to not go out to eat as much. Learn to not spend so much. And maybe learn how to do coupons. 

Spiritual:

Whats wrong- Not enough scripture study or personal conversations with my Heavenly Father.  

What I am going to do- Just do it. I like that saying Nike came up with. Because really- you JUST DO IT with no exceptions.  I know if I do those things diligently I will be a better person in all aspects.

Family life:

Whats wrong- nothing. just want a closer family.

What I am going to do- Make FHE a priority. Be happy and let things flow. 

Motherhood:

Whats wrong- I don't think I'm a good mother. (Others would disagree- i.e. Adam) I know I could do better.

What I am going to do- back to the Nike logo- Just Do It. Just get off the couch and play. Just get dressed for the day and go to the park.  Just print off the ideas from Pinterest and do them! 

Personal:

Whats wrong- not being totally happy with who I am. Forgiving myself.

What I am going to do- Lots of soul searching. Kind of goes with my Spiritual goal. Prayer and lots of it. I know if I can feel my Heavenly Father's love and His forgiveness for my shortcomings then I can forgive myself and be happy with me. 

Boys:

Whats wrong- not much. this goes with motherhood.

What I am going to do- much more.

Creighton- I would like to help Creighton with his speaking and do more than I did with Cayden when he went through speech therapy.  So his therapy will go faster than Cayden's. 

Cayden- Help him with his writing, his letters, his word recognition. He won't be going to Kindergarten for another 1.5 years! I wish this next Fall but he doesn't turn 5 until After the September 1st (the cut off). So He'll be a really old Kindergartener. 

These are the things I am determined to make happen this year. 

Every month, I will be updating how I am going on things that can be updated. :)

I hope to succeed for me and for my family.
