Day 13

Day 13-Goals


I don't set goals. It's just something I have never liked to do. They used to try to get us to do it in Young Womens at church. I was terrible at it then and I am terrible at it still. Maybe my goal should be to be better at setting goals.


It's not that I mind setting the goal. I just don't like the reminder that I failed yet another goal.  It's simple really, if I don't set the goal how can I fail it?  I know, I know, it's really not a very productive or impressive attitude to have. I tend to be a self defeatist person.  (wow, the light bulb just came on as to why one of my kids is this way, duh)


Don't get the wrong impression. I do do things. I just like to call them a to-do list and I keep it short and sweet because my attention span doesn't allow for anything more.


Seriously though, I had two goals for myself growing up and that was to be a wife and mother. Now my "goals" if we must call them that, is to be a better wife and mother. 


Short and sweet.


Oh and if you have read way back at the beginning of the year when I set a challenge goal, yah, well that was not short and sweet but my participation was. It lasted two weeks. One more reminder as to why I don't set goals.
