Monthly Goals: April

At the beginning of each month, I share my goals for the month ahead and track my progress on the previous month’s goals.

My goals for March were:

1. Complete the current Good Morning Girls study and begin a new study on March 25th. — Done
2. Stay up to date with the Hello Mornings Bible study. — Done
3. Read through the books of II Peter, I John, II John and III John. — Done
4. Read Draw the Circle, Prayer, 42 Days to Fit, The Present Principle, A Hunger for God. — In Progress {I’m halfway through “Prayer” and “A Hunger for God”, but I finished the other three}
5. Teach the kids 2 new verses. — Incomplete {We’re halfway through the second verse}
6. Read at least 12 books to the kids. — Incomplete {We read only 10 books last month}
7. Organize and backup photos. — Incomplete {I organized the photos and videos into appropriate folders; I still haven’t taken a backup though!}
8. Purge and organize 2 wardrobe shelves. — Not Done {I didn’t even get started on this :(}
9. Walk/Run at least 8 Km this month. — Incomplete {I walked only 4 Km last month… or 6 if you consider the 2 Km I speed-walked, searching the neighborhood for a lost wallet!}

Apparently, I didn’t do all that well on my goals in March. Well, it happens – all part of living an imperfect life :). I’m hoping to get back on track in April, but I’m not going to beat myself up if I don’t either ;)!

My goals for April are:

1. Stay up to date with the Good Morning Girls and Hello Mornings Bible studies.
2. Read through the book of Revelation.
3. Read Prayer, A Hunger for God, Intentional Parenting, Unplug Your Mind and ReCharge Your Soul, Thin In 30 Minutes (a book on walking).
4. Teach the kids 2 new verses.
5. Read at least 12 books to the kids.
6. Backup photos.
7. Participate in the 30-Day House Cleaning Challenge at Money Saving Mom.
8. Walk at least 8 Km this month.

Are you in the habit of setting weekly/monthly goals? If you do, how did you do last month? If you don’t, how do you keep track of things you need to get done?
