30-day Makeover

The beginning of the month is a great time for a restart.  I tried this several months ago & it was a success...  I just have to keep my focus after the month is up.  Sometimes I go a little crazy...

 

OK, what exactly am I talking about?  A month long make-over.  This is where I commit to making some changes for 30 days.  The idea being that "it's only 30 days," and the potential that once I do something for 30 days I'll be able to incorporate it into my routine, make it a new habit or a lifestyle change.

 

My list of potential month long changes grows, and continues to grow as I get inspired.  It's kinda long...  I'm wondering if I can really pull off all of these???  Ack!  That's not the right attitude, is it?  Here's what I've got so far:

• walk the dog
• do arm exercises
• clean the kitchen
• clean the bathroom
• clean the closet (!)
• no spending (!)
• check off one to-do-list item a day
• schedule my project work & stick to it (ugh)
• if I eat after 7p, it can only be in raw form
• no alcohol, no sweet tea, no soda (aarrggghhh!)
• at work:  daily rounds EVERY day
• no personal stuff @ work except on my lunch hour
• Facebook once a day ONLY
• come up with a daily tweet
• wear diamonds
• look & dress my best
• catch up my personal blog
• read the Bible
• pray
• start a gratitude journal
• read Dave Ramsey
• read work clippings
• check my son's schoolwork, bookbag & website
• clean out my car
