Week 7

`Whenever I get a chance to write for enjoyment outside of requirements for school I tend to write about my goals in life that I would like to accomplish and the things that I have already accomplished. At times it’s really beneficial because its helps improve my lifestyle and choices I make.  While at other times it can be overwhelming because I tend to beat myself up about not accomplishing my goals I have made.  I sometime have experiences that I face that make it a challenge to push forward. Yes, I have learned to use my experience/ obstacles as motivation it doesn’t always work out. So I figured that I must have a daily reminder/ goal list up as a reminder of just how great of a person I am.

`My list can consist of things like being a loving daughter, sister, girl friend, and friend. I also make sure to include things like being a college student, working and being independent. I point out the community service projects I participate in. I try to remind myself of all the small things I do that leads up to contributing to the women I am today. I tend to come up with thing I would like to accomplish by months because I don’t believe in waiting a whole year to get things done because time waits on no one. This month I plan to start my personal statements for grad school.  I plan to set aside more time to focus on God. I plan to prioritize my time more. I do have bigger goals of things like purchasing a house, traveling and creating my own family. I figure being 22 years old it’s time to enjoy life and figure myself out and continue to live life to the fullest. I hope to keep my eyes on the prize and accomplish any and everything that I put my heart into because I am an opportunity magnet. I live by faith! Not by sight. I attract blessings into my life. I am blessed and highly favored :) that’s the start of my daily affirmation that I read.
