For anyone who has met me, they know I am a list maker. I have at least five notebooks running around at any giving time with lists in them. Okay, so I usually don't have my list on me when I need it. But I wrote it down and can kind of remember it.....mostly.
Imagine my happy surprise when I was cleaning house and found my old actualization book. That's right! Some brilliant guru once told me that to reach your goals you need to write them down. Of course, me being me, I was all over that. For four months apparently, at least that is when the documentation ended.
It was kind of an awakening moment when I looked at it. My goals back then are pretty much the same as they are now. Although now I am in a much better emotional and financial place. I can even look at it and laugh a little, okay a lot. Yes, I actually took one of those bikini before pictures. What was I thinking!!!!! No way is anyone ever seeing that picture. It wasn't even at my highest weight, YIKES!
I am so glad that I made this book back then. It does not matter that I did not succeed back then. What matters is that I can see haw far I have come now. I needed that reminder of all that I have accomplished.
I might not have created a binder this time, but I am keeping an even better recording of my goals and what I have accomplished. I have my picture documentations, my goal lists, spread sheets and even this blog is a record of where I have been and where I am going. I have not made it to Hawaii yet and I am not ready for my after bikini picture, but they are coming.
How are you keeping a record of your goals and accomplishments?
Have you started to document them yet?
