It’s Weekly Wishes and I’ve kind of been dreading writing this post. Why? I only accomplished one of my goals.
I didn’t get all ten hours of writing in last week, I didn’t complete my design (I’m still working on one of the elements) and I didn’t go through my shoes. I actually started going through some other things that have been on my to-do list and I did a lot of cleaning, so I still feel accomplished, just not in the ways that I planned to be a week ago! I did get my four workouts in, though, and they felt GREAT!
My Weekly Wishes are going to be a little bit different this week because I’m only going to make one. I actually surprised myself when I came up with this and I’m drafting the post Sunday night so that I can’t change my mind during the day on Monday.
So, what’s my one weekly wish? I will only put five things on my to-do list each night.
I’m pretty sure that I talked about this the first week that I participated in Weekly Wishes. I am the queen of to-do lists and I make massive to-do lists that I don’t have a chance to finish. I’ve always had this idea that if I can set five overall goals for the week, with five tasks each evening to complete those goals, I should be able to have manageable to-do lists that I can accomplish. So, this is my attempt to see if that works.
I should note that I have tried this many, many, many times in the past and I always find some sort of excuse to add just one or five more tasks to my lists. Either that, or I go crazy with the ands so that “one” task will read: Do this and this and this and this and this and that.
We’ll see if I can accomplish this!
What are your goals for the week? Link up with Melyssa over at The Nectar Collective and check out what other people are up to for the week.
I might just have to steal that weekly wish…I too love to do lists and it seems like I never get anything done. What are you writing?
I think thats a brilliant wish.
I am the same way, with long rambling wishes that are absolutely impossible.
Then I get discouraged, and do all 0 of them.
LAME.
Here's to hoping that works for you
(and if it does, maybe I'll try it next week.)
Oh that is an interesting one! And a great wish, especially when we're living in the age of information overload!!! Good luck š
Haha, I relate to this wish because I do the SAME THING! I write a billion things down and get through like half of them and then pout because I didn't knock it all out. Sometimes we can be our own worst enemies, especially when we don't see how much of a Wonder Woman we really are with what we DID accomplish.
Good luck on this goal and don't forget to celebrate YOURSELF because I'm sure you are doing awesome.
I think this is an AWESOME idea! I hope it works for you. š
