goals recap

August goals recap

Kelli2 Comments

I have been slacking on the blog posts this past month! I am going to make a recap of what I’ve been doing in August then I will make a September goals post.

Career goals

  • Give a 2 week notice to my current job —I gave my 2 week notice on August 4, and they ended up firing me on August 8. It ended up better for me because I was already working somewhere else so that freed up my schedule to work.
  • Job search — I meant this to be for me to job search for myself because I don’t need to be a waitress all my life. I looked some for me, but I was really looking for one of my friends a new job.

Social media goals

  • Publish 3 blogs + monthly goals & recap — The only thing I got posted was the goals. I slacked on posting ANYTHING else.
  • Post on YouTube 2 times — I didn’t post a single YouTube video in August. Oops.
  • Get to 185 subscribers on blog — I haven’t gained or lost any subscribers. I have stayed at 179. I was hoping to post more and gain some.
  • Get to 317 subscribers on Youtube — I have 314 subscribers… Sub to me on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@Ykelli
  • Organize my Pinterest — Why do I keep putting this off?

Personal goals

  • Do one self-care act a day — I know I did at least one most days. I forgot to keep up with it.
  • Drink 50 oz of water a day — Some days I did 50 oz. Some days I did 20 oz.
  • Plan 2 dates with Cody outside the house — If we did I didn’t get pictures of it, and my memory is bad LOL. I know we at least had one date outside the house, and we had went out shopping and had lunch.
  • Practice mediating — I did NOT do this like I wanted to.
  • Journal daily — I was doing good with journaling daily until I wasn’t.
  • Walk 3-4 times a week — I have been slacking.
  • Schedule a day to hang out with each friend — I did really good with this. I hung out with all but two.

Books goals

  • Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell — I am hopefully finishing this in September! I’m currently 64% into the audiobook. If I have to go get the physically copy from the library I will finish it this month!
  • When Your Best Isn’t Good Enough by Dr. Kevin Leman — I am literally finishing this book on the day I am posting this (September 9 lol).
  • Along Came a Spider by James Patterson — I enjoyed the first book of this series!
  • The Hawthorne Legacy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes — LOVE this book series! I’m already almost done with the next one.
  • Winning the War in Your Mind by Craig Groeschel — A good little self-improvement book. Not my favorite, but not bad.

I had such a good month even though I did not do all the social media things I wanted to do! I’m already doing better in September so go me! Here are some pictures that capture some of the reasons my month of August was so great.
