Megan's Goals

In the next year, I would like to focus on:

1. Health. I will exercise, eat less meat, get outside and feel the sun, sleep the right amount of time (whatever that may be). I'm going to try not to focus on weight loss, but on feeling better.

2. Relationships. I tend to lean towards being a homebody and can easily see myself becoming a hermit. So this year I want to make sure I spend quality time with friends and family. Since we're living in the same city again, I want to see Cat at least once a week, and not let this time together go to waste. I want to get back in touch with old friends and make new friends.

3. Pursuing Passions. This year I'm going to read, read, read. That's always a goal of mine, but this past year I've let myself down. It's time to get back to it. I also want to start writing again. It's something I loved to do in high school, but as my imagination waned with old age so did my writing time.

4. Spirituality. I'm not a religious person in the least bit, but I've always been attracted to the idea of Buddhism and meditation. So I want to explore those arenas this year.

5. Fun. I want to do at least one new thing a week. I love going new places and doing new things, but I usually find myself going to the same old places over and over. It's time to do some exploring.

6. Simplify and Organize. My computer is a mess. I want to organize it!

7. Self Esteem. I want to work on feeling better about myself. I want to dress nicer. (I know this seems like a shallow goal, but I do feel better when I look nice!) I want to take a class of some sort so I don't feel like my brain is atrophying. I want to volunteer and try and make a tiny difference in my community. And I want to tackle my fear of public speaking.
