A WORD – Goal: something you are trying to do or achieve.

We’re already into March and I’m wondering how some of those New Year resolutions are working out for everyone. Instead of resolutions, I try to set goals. Resolution or goal, life still catches up and throws me off balance. Thinking about all the areas I hope to be productive in and feeling like I’m failing in each and every one. I’m finding myself overwhelmed and frustrated.

Work, church, home, people, events, circumstances….AHHHH! Am I the only one who feels this way?

Time to take a deep breath and set new, simple goals. Yes, must simplify to make it reasonable and doable.

• Devotion: Jesus first. Every day with praise, prayer and the Word.
• Declutter: Small tasks around the house, every little bit counts.
  
• Delve: into writing. Get the words on paper, even if its short. Just write.
• Discover: new friends, new places, new experiences. Make time for people.
• Daydream: break for a rest. Take a walk, read a magazine, mail a greeting card, make a phone call.

Do you have a simple plan to set new goals?

Will you join me in the 5-D plan?
