Ms V, hmmm, perhaps you can help me out and revise them? I think of goals as things in my control, whereas a "wish" I can only wait and hope would happen.

1. I can control making changes at work that lead to additional pay--take on more responsibilities, more hours, and I am working towards an additional credential.

2. My health has been its own roller coaster, which I can change if I commit to it. I know it's time I get into better shape again, increase cardio workout and muscle mass, and decrease empty calories/sugar/alcohol. I look better when I do this and I feel better too.

3. I can diversify my enjoyable activities, which I believe will be good for me. I feel happy when I change it up. Often for fun, I meet up with friends, have a few drinks, go out to eat, or hang out with family/friends and the kids. There is so much more I could be doing and enjoying, but I need to challenge myself to arrange and go. I love hiking, a good film, a good book, just playing with my kids and being more present, however I need to carve this time out and stick to it!

Coly, happy NY to you as well, my friend! Hugs!
