Last night I spoke with my old job coach, he's not old, but we've known each other for many years now. He knows what I can do and is a believer. He also knows my personality and is good at asking me the questions I avoid asking myself. I shared with him that I was seriously considering working for myself, consulting. Since this is what he does, I figured he would be a good person to start with in my interview phase of, "what should I do with my life". He affirmed that I should be writing my goals, which I started earlier that day and finished this morning. I was supposed to take the week off to relax and all I could do was worry about this or that. I kept applying for jobs, I couldn't put the computer down. It's been 80 degrees and beautiful in San Diego...what the heck is wrong with me!!! I started to get a rash, I was short of breath, I was angry for no reason. I kept thinking about my goals, what I should be doing, what do I want, how am I going to get it, etc.
So, today I wrote 5 goals for myself, a physical goal so I can love myself. I made sure not to put down I would lose 10 pounds and go on a diet or anything crazy, I simply put that I would make time for me to do yoga, mediate, and sweat doing something. It's only an hour, I could spend an hour in front of the boob tube easy, why not spend it on me. I created a financial goal to help with my budgeting, a career goal to get this business idea started, a personal goal to volunteer more and a relationship goal to avoid me from continuing the behavior I have had since I was a teenage girl.
