I welcome anyone to commit to a goal here today.

But more importantly, talk about getting it done or why it didn't happen today.

To praise each other for our efforts and wins.

While supporting each other through trials and setbacks.

And to continue trying and not give up.

Remember:
Every Goal should be considered "Worthy".
Never belittle your achievements and be proud of yourself for your daily accomplishments!
Whether they be Complex or Simple.
Getting out of bed is a good day..... Good job I say!

Share your goals today, for support and encouragement.

@CyclingThroughLife @KristenHR πŸ˜ƒ.... and any new intersted folks.

I feel good this morning. I have just as many tasks and chores to do this week as usual but the big difference is; none of them feel looming and dooming.

I had a side job this week that I was dreading to do, but I was able to navigate around that side job for legitimate reasons and the homeowner is perfectly fine with everything so there's no guilt or pressure there.

I'm looking forward to this week, how about you guys?

17 weeks left in 2023.... No pressure.... πŸ˜‚

Hello there.....I'm glad everything turned out good with your side job....On Sunday I was really looking forward to this week, but as the week went on at the workplace, not so much. I should be less stress and in some cases I am, but for some reason, I have this looming dark feeling deep inside me that isn't good. I can't quite place my finger on it....it could be nothing more than me over thinking and catastrophizing each and every scenario at work....I'll have to wait and see....anyway, I'll put in some goals at the end of the thread....

Happy Labor Day!

My day is committed after 10:30 this morning. A very long overdue gathering of a couple friends will dominate today. I'm really looking forward to that.

But until then, back to the same old same old. Today's about typical house chores and clearing all those trees that I dropped the other day. Not clearing them all today but working on it.

I'm glad you get to visit with friends....do what makes you happy....me....I'm not a visit with people type of guy....I have more of acquaintances, not real friends.....only my girlfriend....and I'm happy with my life this way....I'm happy sitting home alone if I have to....I think it has a lot to do with my job and being around a certain type of people all day...by the time I get home, I'm "done" if you know what I mean....

I hope you got all your chores and some of the trees cleaned up....

This week I didn't set many "personal" goals. My calendar is full with other things so I didn't want to overdo it and not hit my mark, if you know what I mean. Work goals are coming along but its stressful trying to hit them this week for some reason. Anyway....goals for the week

Work out at least 3 times, this is a big drop from my 5 to 6 times a week I normally like to do....Monday is done...I did self care and napped after work today....I have an away soccer game for my son tomorrow, 1.5 hr drive so depending on what time I get out of work and how much time I have before I need to leave, I may or may not get one in...we will see.....

Change handle on my storm door....it needs it and I've been putting it off way too long....

Wash and vacuum my car

Thats all I scheduled for myself for the week....its a pretty skimpy list but like I said, I've got a busy week with personal things Wed thru Sat.....I'm sure I'll get through these three things....

I hope you all are having a wonderful week and continue to do so.....

@CyclingThroughLife

That sounds pretty perfect for a chill week. Especially that little nuisance storm door handle, that'll make you feel good every time you use it after it's fixed.😊. Time with your son and a clean car, sounding good man.

I'm about like you in the friend department, mostly acquaintances and I alienate a lot of people so I'm not really a very social person. My two friends I was talking about just enough of a couple of misfits to put up with me and that's why it was nice to hang out with them. But our timetables don't usually jive so that's far and few between.

I hope you have a great week too.

THURSDAY:

I'm falling way behind on my household chores. The broken backhoe has set my plans back by a couple of weeks. This week I'm just trying to stay afloat.

I hope today I can get the right hydraulic hose for the backhoe and get that fixed. We're supposed to get some rain but not too much. Hopefully, I can finish my backhoe project this weekend.

Just do a little bit today: Remove hydraulic hose and bring it to town to get a new one made.

A little bit more: install hose onto backhoe.

Right now...... Try to get the kitchen cleaned before going to work.

@CyclingThroughLife

Everything I do is on my desktop. I have no time during the day to do stuff on my phone so I totally understand. I think I'm still kind of old school, where I use my phone to make phone calls during the day if I have to; and that's about it. Lol

I'm glad to hear that you're on track. It's nice sometimes not to overdo it and stay caught up on things. Between your work and your physical commitments as your time standards, you have a lot going on so I think you're doing really good too.

THURSDAY:

Just messing about: I fixed my hydraulic line this afternoon so this evening I think I'll go try to move a tree and see how that goes. I got four trees to move. I just have to figure out a system for doing it fairly efficiently.
