My New Year's Goals for 2013!

Hello everyone! Happy New Year!! I am REALLY excited about this next year of life I am just stepping into...why? Well, several reasons actually, but the main one is that Autry & I will be getting married so I will be experiencing a completely different life. Some differences will be I'll have to learn how to cook for 2 people instead of 8-10! Or I'll have to clean the whole entire house instead of just my room and one of the bathrooms that I currently clean...It's a huge change but I'm SO ready for it to take place!

Each year my mom asks us what our goals for this next year will be. Unfortunately I don't remember what my goals were for last year, but this year I have quite a few goals set up for myself and hope to work hard at them so I can either complete them or just be a better person.

Mom usually gave/gives us a paper with the following questions. We (the kids/family) would then write a goal for each of the following areas: Physical, Financial/Material/Money, Family, Business/Career/School, Social/Community/Others, Spiritual, Mental/Intellectual.

I chose to go with the number 5. I went through each of the categories mentioned above and {tried to} set five goals for all of them to accomplish or work on throughout this next year. Some have more, some have less, but that's what I aimed for...I also added two categories: Self & Blogging.

 

Here are my goals for 2013!
