A Good Look in the Mirror

I am working out my thoughts in this blog.  I need to get them organized and focused. I do that best if I reason everything out on paper or screen.  It will most likely be boring, but it’s what is on my mind today.   My life is becoming a big mess.  Nothing is organized or planned, and I am missing too many of my goals.  I have been slipping bit by bit for a month or so.  So what to do now?  Look at my priorities and see if they are on track to reach my goals and live the life I want to live.   Get rid of the clutter in my life.  Start planning meals and exercise in more detail.  If I don’t know what I am doing to reach to my goals then I won’t reach them. 

What I know I need to do to reach my health goals.

  1. Meal Planning
  2. Exercise
  3. Water
  4. Sleep
  5. Motivation and Focus

I have been on track with water since last Thursday.   I started getting caught up on sleep last night and will continue to get at least 7 hours each night.  I would like to get 8, but that is not always possible.  Motivation is this blog.  As I get everything in order and plan I will become more motivated and focused. That leaves meal planning and exercise.  These are the most difficult for me.  I don’t know why they just are.  I need 30 to 60 minutes of exercise 5 days a week and 2,000 to 2,300 calories per day.  I will start posting my accountability here or in the Wildcat forum. 

Gotta cut this short.  I will write more later/tomorrow.
