Spiritual:
- Focus on prayers and meditations; on gratitude and being thankful; appreciate the blessings.
Environment:
- Undecorate from Christmas and start cleaning and decluttering and organizing! Loads to be done!
Daughter:
- She still has 2 weeks of Winter break left, so she'll be home for a bit longer. Then, she returns to Berkeley to begin her last semester of Grad. school.
Family:
- Most, if not all, contacts will be on the phone or on-line, this month. I need to call and wish one cousin and one aunt on their birthdays.
Friends:
- Again, contacts will be mostly on the phone and on-line.
Career:
- I plan to continue to work from home on the good days.
Finances:
- I will continue to budget and manage my finances to the
best of my abilities. The big bill due this month is daughter's tuition and fees.
Health:
- Once again, the main focus will be on health. I've a hydration session scheduled for Monday, January 4, a blood test on Tuesday, January 5, and the second chemo therapy session on Friday, January 8. It will be followed by another blood test the following week and a hydration session on the Friday of that week. And depending on the blood test results, more immunity booster injections, and "lather, rinse, repeat".
Time Management:
- Procrastinate less! Go back to making daily to do lists and actually do them!
Leisure/Crafts/Hobbies/Me-Time:
- I plan to finish knitting the scarf I am making and start on the Mountain Climbing quilt.
I am keeping this year's New Year's resolutions in mind and trying to incorporate them into the monthly goals. To that end, I've included a new segment to my Balance Wheel - Time Management. I tend to procrastinate and waste a lot of time, so, my new year's goal is to be more efficient with my time.
Anybody else wants to try to do a goals/balance wheel of your own?
This sounds like you have given it a lot of thought and sounds really centred. Have a great year! x
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sybil. I've been doing this Balance Wheel thing for a few years, now, and find it really helpful.
