Last week I shared my goals for February, and while I didn’t share my January goals I thought I would do a round up and check-in here today. Just for the record…
This is going to look like a very long list, and it is. I won’t go into detail about each one (maybe just the ones I wasn’t able to check off), but will do a little round up reflection at the end. Bolded tasks were completed!
- Cook 1 recipe from Weekday Weekend
- Read Becoming You
- Review system checklists – how can they be fun?
- Do something uncomfortable 3x
- Lose 4lbs – I started out on the right track and then went backwards…
- Journal 80% of days – this ended up being 74% so very close!
- Save $1500
- Pay off Christmas spending, set a birthday budget
- Start reading book on investing
- Plan a birthday lunch with Fran
- Send January birthday cards
- Connect with neighbors, if opportunity presents
- Join 2 more Patreon subscriptions
- Write out list of tasks for Spring cleaning list
- Research patio door options
- Clean up Dropbox
- Get and setup new iPhone
- Change email on subscription accounts
- Read 2-3 Lucy Score books
- Create and start a Winter Fun list
- Browse bucket lists for adventure ideas
- Watch 3 Knives Out movies
- Watch 5 episodes of Emily in Paris
- Create 2026 Music Jar jar
- Work on Spring term curriculum – I set up what I wanted to do, but didn’t really start it…
- Start loft declutter
- Create a Project Punch List plan and start it – I didn’t really make a full plan, but I did technically start it with the items I flagged for January…
- Use lotion on arms/hands regularly – I did this occasionally…
- Read 1 magazine – I started this…
- Try 2 nail polishes from collection
My goal tracking spreadsheet says I accomplished 87% of the goals I set for January! This is amazing and not typical. I think the fact that I took my annual birthday staycation at the end of the month really helped, as I knocked a lot of the tasks of the list that week.
Did you have goals for January?
