Goal Challenge

So..long day at work. I'm tired. Anyone reading this blog might hear that a lot. Sorry, but it's my party and I'll cry if I want to:)
I went to church yesterday and we had a great lesson on goals and self esteem. Thought I'd share. We all need a little "self help", now and then. We were challenged to write 6 different areas and attach a goal to it. I am still thinking about mine. I will share more when I can get them down concretely (haven't had the time to do so yet) The areas include:
Spiritual
Intellectual
Physical
Service
Character
Financial
Another thought..write down one thing that you should NOT do, and stop doing it!
Let me know some of your ideas, and/or, think about these things for yourself. Oprah says to draw a posterboard and put it on the wall(at least someone told me Oprah said that).
You must see things in writing though. Often we do work that way.
A great book that was shared was "3 cups of tea"
Can't personally attest to it, but I am going to get it and see how it goes. I have heard from others it's about having tenacity and doing great things. We always need inspiring lierature don't we?

Oh, anyone who is not sure how this blog works, you can leave a comment and we can chat that way. Thank you to those of you who have. I enjoy our friendships GREATLY. I don't always get the chance to get to everyone as much as I would like. Phone calls are tough with a 2, almost 3 year old who interrups me as often as he can. I also get caught up in my daily life. So, not only is this very retrospective (and introspective)for me, I can keep in touch with many of you on a more regular basis.
I am grateful for your friendships. I couldn't ask for better.

hey - yeah, I don't like lists like that... they depress me. I'm way too far off the mark of where I should be in any area of my life!
Spiritual, Intellectual, Physical, Service, Character, Financial
Wow... that pretty much covers it, huh?
