Setting goals and intentions for 2025...

There are so many things I want to do in a year, things that bring change, provide purpose while also providing fulfillment. This is my why in creating a plan. Often beginning in November, I enjoy journaling ideas, and coming up with a plan. This year I also created a bullet journal to help me set goals for health, fitness and other areas for a balanced life.

1. To improve my writing, I enjoy taking classes as well as having a theme to focus on for the week/month, while continuing to share stories of hope.
2. There are so many ways to learn and the library of self help books between my own library, and the libby app, are a great way to begin each day.
3. Meditation is another practice I am reintroducing into my morning routine, as well as a cultivated plan of 75 hard that fits my life.
4. With Cultivate as my word of the year. There are so many ways to cultivate change. First, I want to see more plants and flowers in our yard, which helped me with my main focus. But the word CULTIVATE serves me in many areas of life.

For 2025, I am not shooting for perfection. My aim is to improve, not perfect. My goal is to complete each monthly task 25 of the 30 days in a month.
