One of my favorite past-times is sitting in coffee houses and getting work
done. Today I am at the local Starbucks enjoying a Pike’s roast and
listening what appears to be a jazz compilation music list. I have been told
that goal setting is easier in a relaxing atmosphere. Today this Starbucks
location is just the atmosphere I need.

Today I am focusing on physical and technology goals. As far as physical
goals, I have held a pretty good track record lately of keeping up with my
workout and nutrition goals which is pretty exciting considering my history
of past years. So my goals are mostly consisting of staying on task with
eating 6 healthy meals a day and working out 6 days a week. I know it sound
like quite a bit, but keep in mind I’ve worked up to this (starting back in
September of 2009).

My technology goals are more related to writing and sharpening my axe rather
than certifications at this time. I’m planning to post more articles to the
website and keep up with blog entries with postings like this one. The next
order of business is to go through my websites and make sure they are XHTML
compliant. It’s more of a self-perfection goal, but it is good practice in
any case. Well I better get to it!

Till Next Time. Happy Goal Setting

Morning Challenges to Goal Setting

Today is Sunday and I am looking to set my goals for today. As with any day, there are challenges to everything.

This morning I woke up before anyone in the house to try and get my day started off right with some goal setting. I started brewed my morning coffee started up my laptop and… low and behold my niece comes down the stairs and asks what I am doing. I told her that I am just having some coffee and doing some work. She smiled at me and sat down on the couch close to me.

My coffee needed a little bit more sugar so I proceeded to the kitchen to balance the bitterness of my coffee. She followed right behind me and stated said, “I’m a little hungry” .  So we discussed breakfast options and decided on cereal. I prepared our morning cereal and, of course, the second niece comes down the stairs and asks for cereal as well. As I sat with my nieces, I though how lucky I am to have this experience on a relaxed Sunday morning.

Although I thoroughly enjoyed my experience, I noticed that my morning goal setting has been unexpectedly pushed back by full hour and a half. (So much for getting a jump start before anyone is awake for the day)

So here is my point point for this morning…. every day we have challenges. Most of them will be unexpected and some are happy serendipitous situations, others not as enjoyable, but as we move through our days it is still important to start off right. I have just finished taking a short fifteen minutes to set my goals for the day.

One of them being this blog post. = ]

We all have challenges, but remember goal setting helps you have guidance thorough your day and it only takes a few minutes a day. Keeping pushing forward and if you needed take that side-step but always remember to correct your course.
