11 Week Goals

the Bible tells us that without a vision, people perish.  That does not mean that "literally if you don't have a vision for your life, you will literally be killed somehow and perish".  What it means is that when you don't have an active vision for your life, your soul can perish.  You can become depressed.  You can become a person you don't want to be.  Most people who have allowed thier lives to spin out of control, whether that be to drugs, to an unhealthy relationship, to being overweight, to abandoning faith in Jesus Christ, most of those people did NOT have a vision for thier lives.  If they did, dang... their vision was WACK!   I don't think ANYONE plans to get addictied to drugs.  NO ONE plans to become obese.  NO ONE plans to become addicted to pornography.  NO ONE plans to become depressed and not want to get out of bed.  HOWEVER, you do have to plan to have the life you want and deserve. 

So, in laymans terms, to have a vision for your life is to....

HAVE GOALS FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!!

I set goals constantly!

I always have a new set of goals that I am hammering through. 
It is how I live.
It is how I function in this chaotic world and not get LOST and DEPRESSED and FAT!  :)
My goals cover lots of areas of my life.  At times I'm more focused on professional goals.  Other times I become more focused on personal weight loss goals.  At others I focus more on personal goals for self improvement like reading books and such. 

So, I wanted to let you guys in on my latest goals.  I made them this morning.
The reason I made some new goals today was becasue I have kinda "taken a break" from life for about 2 weeks.  I was sick for a week solid, and then had company in my home all this week.  So, I was feeling down and a smidgin depressed this morning because I haven't done very many productive things in the past 2 weeks.  So.... I made some goals!

Here are my goals for the next 11 weeks.
My goal deadling is June 1st.
The reason I chose June 1st was becasue that is when my "summer" starts.  I work through May as a teacher and "summer" starts in June.

1.  Get up early every morning.
     -This is a goal I have had my entire life.  I hate mornings.  I LOVE sleep.
     - When I get up early I will READ THE WORD to start my day! 
    - I truly want to become a Morning Lover!!!!  I'm gonna do it!  I can do it!

2.  Loose 10 pounds by June 1st!
    -that is only 1 pound per week!!
    -I wanna look GOOD in my bikini this summer!!!
    -I want Wade to be like.... DAAAAAAANG! 

3.  Eat correctly every day!
    -In order to loose a pound a week, I have to eat right EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!!!
    -I am allowing myself 1 cheat meal per week!  ONLY 1 (that may sound drastic, but it's not)

4.  Workout AT LEAST 5 days per week.
     -This may sound like a lot, but if I want to tone up, I have to work out almost every day.

5.  Read at least 1 book!
    -The book I started today is "Act Normal" by Scott Wilson.

I will be updating you on my progress. 

Now I encourage you to make some goals. 
They don't have to be a big huge thing... just have something that you are working for and living for!!

Have an awesome day!
