Weekly sharing of Lofty Goals! Week #31 (Monday 7/31/23 - Sunday 8/06/23)
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 "Lofty".
Never belittle your achievements and be proud of yourself for your daily accomplishments, whether they be Complex or Simply getting out of bed..... Good job I say!
Share your goals today, for support and encouragement.

WEDNESDAY: 
-DAY
I thought I was doing horrible because of a few hindrances and obstacles to overcome but after reviewing my "To Do" List, I'm only a little bit behind right now. I'm also a little ahead in a couple of areas. At the moment I am more encouraged then discouraged.
THURSDAY:
My batteries are pretty drained this morning. Everything in green italics is done so far.
A. Dig hole for sump bucket and sump pump. (Monday)
B. Set up sump pump temporarily to get rid of existing water. (Monday)
D. Get Gravel. (Tuesday)
Other meetings all day (Wednesday)
I have not gotten to any of my paperwork which is worrying me. My helpers are not showing up so digging the trench to grade will take me at least two days plus the additional work of drilling weep holes in the cinder blocks could be another half day's work.
But I think there's still hope if I stay at it. The reward of all of this is a two year obligation will be done and that weight will be off my shoulders so regardless of how long it takes, I'm almost free of this obligation and burden.
Thursday: 4:00am:
Sort kitchen, Put shopping staples away, Wash dishes.
My Goal this weekend was to set up a weekly cleaning routine. I got help from my best friend and have a basic plan. Feel like I have one step towards consistency
@frankNest836
That is freaking awesome! I came up with a similar plan about a year ago and it has helped me a lot. That's really good you had a friend to help you out and it is something you want to do. Like you indicated, the consistency will feel really good. 😊.
KEEP US POSTED ON YOUR PROGRESS!
As Week #31 comes to an end, I'm slightly disappointed that I wasn't able to finish all my goals for this week. I don't regret my actions because I gave it 100% but my ambitions were higher than my ability.
My goal was to finish this basement sump system for my ex-wife and it is a kind of a big deal because it's my last obligation to her and I wanna be done with it. I regret that it's gonna drag out.
It has dragged into a new week but today I should get to a good stopping point. I'll have it all set up as to the only thing that will be left will be to cover it up with cement but I'll have to schedule that within the next few weeks. I just wish I was done with it but that's as close as I can get until then. I'll have the place all cleaned up and all my tools and equipment out of there so that'll be a good step done.
