I have been feeling really down because I am not able to complete some of the goals I set for myself. Not being able to go to the temple or Eric's graduation threw me off. Then, races started to be cancelled which made it harder to train for a race that I wasn't sure would happen. So, I am refocusing my goals.
I would still like to lose weight. That means I have to get a handle on my eating and keep running. I still think I can lose 30 pounds this year. It will just be a higher number in the end. I did this a few years ago. I need to be as disciplined as I was then.
I can still work on the time goal. I actually would like to get to a 12 minute mile this year. It seems like a better goal. When I looked at my stats from last year, I realized that I ran a 12:30 mile at Ragnar. That means I can do even better this year if I work at it even if I can only run virtual races.
When I comes to spiritual goals, I am making those week by week for the most part. There is a lot I know I can work on, and I think that working on them week by week will help me focus a bit. I did accomplish listening to the standard works. I didn't finish by General Conference, but I did finish the following week. I am calling this a win.
I need to work on a discipleship goal for a class this semester. I am going to work on reading or listing to the scriptures daily for a minimum of 10 minutes a day. I have fallen of in this goal. I really liked how I felt when I was so focused on the scriptures. I will report on this weekly as part of the assignment.
