- Day 11 -

My goal yesterday was to Fast until dinner. I made it til 3pm. But here are some things I bet you didn't know- I started my fast at 7pm the night before. And I woke up yesterday at 4am to get ready for work... So 3pm was like dinnertime for me anyway. Though I don't necessarily recommend breaking a fast with walnuts, bacon, quiche, mashed cauliflower, & homemade chocolate bars. Hahaa. But it all was delicious! How did you do with your fast? 
OK, onto today's goal. 
On this day I shall...
JOURNAL. This is a simple goal. One that I sometimes avoid due to the depth and length of time I need to write about. Good thing I love writing and have all of tomorrow afternoon to do so! Lots has been going on internally with me and I'm seeing a lot of growth, healing, and forward movement in God. Though the ugly stuff might be coming up, at least they're making room for all the GOOD stuff. Right? Right. So I shall write about it all. Poetically, lyrically, and practically. 

Questions: Do you currently journal? Do you enjoy journaling? What your favorite or least favorite thing about it? Why? 

- Day 10 -

   Accomplishing a goal is such a great feeling. And the fruit that comes from achieving them is even better. Yesterday's goal was a good one- did you reach it? I did and I'm glad for that. It was great to intentionally connect with one of my best friends! Onto today's goal... potentially a bit more challenging.
On This Day I Shall...
FAST. Yep, not eat until dinner. Two reasons: spiritual & physical benefits. Challenging, healthy, cleansing. I want to be able to hear God better/focus on Him and not thinking about food all day. Giving up food for a day is a great way to do that. Also, it's good for my body and will help to heal, cleanse, digest & reset. 
Questions: Have you ever intentionally fasted? Are you willing to try? Are you willing to go without for a while? Why/why not?

- goal 8 -

So, I didn't accomplish yesterday's goal. Even though it was so simple and would have been quite easy, I was exhausted and forgot. Bummer. BUT I will do it today... along with today's goal. And they will both be great! Some days things just need to be put on hold until rest happens. That was yesterday for me. Today is new and ready to go. Onwards and upwards.
On this day I shall...
WRITE A NICE NOTE TO SOMEONE. 
Here's the deal: It will be a note of encouragement and/or thanks. Let's bless others today. (You're not limited to one note. You can write several. In fact, that is encouraged.)
Questions: Do you like to receive notes/cards? Do you like to give people encouragement? Why?

- goal 6 -

On this day I shall...

BE PRESENT.

What are some reasons you're not fully "in the moment"? How can you learn/work/try to be more in the present today (and have a good time doing it)?

- day 4 -

On this day I shall...

Allow myself to rest in the fact that I AM GOOD ENOUGH and NOT be afraid that it will cause me to be complacent. 


Do you ever feel like you're not good enough (at any specific thing)? How are some ways you can combat that thought/feeling? Have you beaten it?
