Weekly sharing of Goals! Week #7 2024 (Monday 02/12/24 - Sunday 02/18/24)
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.
I start a fresh thread for this series each week. Sometimes the new thread gets lost and is hard to find.
Being tagged makes it easier for those interested to follow the series.

My goal this week is to work on an art project for fun. Going to make an emoji with my 3d pens.
@IchooseLife79
I just saw your artwork. I think that's the coolest thing ever! I had never heard of the 3D pens so I'll probably be telling everybody about that idea. Your artwork is really cool. Good luck with your 3D emojis and thanks so much for sharing. 😃
@IsayUncle
Thanks :) I'm glad you liked them.

My goal is to crochet ð§¶
Today is gonna be a blab blab blab day for me on this thread. It helps me focus and stay motivated I'm pretty bewildered and confused about my target goals for today.
I finally worked a paying job yesterday. Recovered about 25% of the parts and repairs I've done on the equipment for the past two weeks. But it was a paying job and it continues tomorrow.
I am really torn about which direction to go today. I just want to sleep and rest all day and I deserve to do that but that will set me in the rears so bad for next week. In all good conscience I can't do that. I could go to the garage and work on the backhoe all day but I also need to get a bunch of house chores and paperwork done.
I really feel like doing absolutely nothing. Going back to bed and maybe just sleep for about another hour. That will absolutely hurt me in the long run so MORNING CHORES for the next hour is a must.
@IsayUncle I think you've been doing great with staying committed to getting things done. If you get the backhoe and paperwork done today can you take that extra hour of sleep tomorrow? Even with the paying job continuing? Or does that start at a set time? Sometimes I think there's just not enough hours in the day to get things done
You got this!
@mytwistedsoul
Thanks for the cheer leading.... I'll bet he's "dog tired" after doing that all day. Lol. 🤣.
tbh, I'm not even concerning myself with tomorrow. Just going to work is an easy thing to do sometimes. I'll be glad to earn some more money and that's the priority. Rest or no rest, tomorrow is already a win win. (Knock on wood)
Hey ho, to the laundry I go! 😒.
@IsayUncle 😁😂
Just blabbing away here is just one of many tools I use to try to motivate.
My left arm and shoulder continues to be in constant pain but is lessened some by medication. It does suck the motivation out of you when you are you in some sort of pain.
I've finished my morning tasks. I rested with my eyes closed and no noise 15 minutes. Now I'm going to do some laundry & kitchen tasks for about an hour. I'm still tired and could sleep all day. Fight or flight... I will fight for this next hour.
Wo Wow... 4 hours ago I was gonna do my laundry and my dishes. I have not finished them yet but one more good push and I should have it done. I know I've rested a couple of times for 10 or 15 minutes but I can't believe I started these four hours ago..... Must be a glitch with seven cups posting time, yeah that's the ticket, that's what happened for sure! 😵😲
Thank you guys for your support and encouragement. I was never able to turn motivation into momentum well I did finish my dishes and laundry. It's almost 6:00 PM and I am a little disappointed that I wasn't able to gain some momentum I am satisfied with what I did get done.
Thank you all for your support today and I hope everyone is having a good weekend.
@IsayUncle My immediate goal is to finish my next lab for the online degree I'm doing. Hooing to get it completed today.
@Enthenia
I'm hoping you finish today too. 
... YOU CAN DO IT! 😉.
Let us know when you finish today and get a Good Job Sticker.😀 Yep, for Sure...
@IsayUncle Thanks. I sorta need to now. Recently got an email from the honors society for my school about not finishing the final steps. What I need to do is sort of like what you do in this forum. I have to do a S.M.A.R.T. goal with about four other people then we check in with one another once a week and see how each other is progressing. I wanted to bring it up here. Mentioned it in the Student Support forum but only had one person interested.
But, life kept getting in the way (mainly my stressful job) and I never got to do a post about it. That's all I'll say about it for now because I need to get back to my stressful job so I can finish it and complere the lab (I actually did a good prtion og it Friday but I have to complete it in one sitting otherwise it doesn't save).
@Enthenia
Getting back to your stressful job.... Finish that and then to finish your lab project.
I hate it that you have a stressful job to deal with but it looks like you have a lot of other stuff going on too. A lot of good stuff. Keep it up and try real hard to finish up that lab project this evening.
No pressure.... But we are all rooting for you and that's the next post we wanna see, is you got it done because we know you can do it!
Here's some coffee for a long evening. 😊
@IsayUncle Thanks for the virtual coffee! Probably much better for me than actual coffee.
I got the lab done (it was configuring routers to certain specifications) and I have one more lab to do before I can do my paper but now I have to go and ooen 700+ reports from the past week. Most are blank but I have to open them anyway.
@Enthenia
Good On You! 😀
OMG.... GOOD LUCK!😵😴😴
@IsayUncle That's why the job is so stressful. By the time I got caught up with one batch, I'm behind on something else. Then I have to pull information over if there's a match...
Our tech department is supposedly working on cosolidating the reports into one but there's no telling when it'll be ready.
But I got one day out of the way so that's 124 down but not really because tomorrow the reports for today will be available.
@Enthenia
Yea, I can understand that. It Sounds like they have it set up that the employees are always behind the 8 ball to push push push. It Sounds like you're a valued asset and they have you overloaded because they don't have enough employees to handle the job volume. That could be because they're greedy and don't wanna hire more employees or or just because there's not enough workforce.
Either way, it's a bad feeling for us on a personal level when we feel like everyday we can't finish and never get ahead enough for that good feeling of accomplishment.
Try to remember, it is not a personal reflection on you. You are a valued asset and they know it. Set your own standard and stick to it. I believe you will maintain your job and feel good that you attained your own personal standard. (With that said, they will always push you harder and harder which will continue to create some form of stress but maybe and hopefully a little less)
