Dear Tea Readers and Goal Achievers,
I'm checking in to see how your lists of three things is coming along.
Have you started your next list of three goals? Have you put this method into your daily work as well?
I added to journal every day as well into my list of three and now I've been writing a paragraph each morning and I feel great about this.
What's new on your list?
Have a great day! Enjoy your goal achievements~

Dear Tea readers and goal achievers,
Checking in to see where you might be on your lists (of 3 things to do) or if you have scraped the last one and are creating a new list?
I've just created my new list of three goals and the first one is a continuation of the journaling I have been doing. Even if it is just a few sentences, I will at least begin my day with that already done. And like always my #2, & 3 involve home improvement. (LOL)
and they will involve help from other household members, I'll let you know how it goes, I'm setting short timelines on each of them so that they may actually get done!
Let me know how you're all doing.

Dear Tea Readers,
How are your personal goals going? I hope you're not too exhausted from doing your in home improvement goals? I've began to pick out some paint colors to improve my laundry room. This room has builder's paint on it and has not been touched in sixteen years. It's a small room and will do this myself. If you have painting tips please let me know.
Journaling is going well. Still doing it. My new goal there is to put a bit more thought into my entries,as they have been somewhat drab.
My third spring goal is to create and stay on a regular writing schedule. Throughout my career, this has been a pet peeve as I usually have too many "irons in the fire", I'm honing in my social media.
What are your personal goals and are you staying with them.

Dear Tea Readers and Goal Achievers,
I have replaced my desk chair with a giant ball! I am determined to build up my core strength. I am also finding that this is the most comfortable thing to sit on ever! I highly recommend! Building my core strength is just one of my fitness goals for this year! I hope you've set your goals and that they are attainable ones, and that I see you all coming on telling me you've made your goal!
Good luck with all your goals.

Dear Tea Readers and Goal Achievers,
So the replacing of my chair with the ball is proving beneficial! My back is so much better.
I can walk outside now on my trails! Oh, happy day! Now I'm working on my knees! more about that later!
I hope you're making strides in your personal goals.
Have a wonderfully tea filled day!

Dear Tea Readers and Goal Achievers,
The last forum post was filled with my personal fitness goals, some of which were met, yet I think I'll always strive for true fitness routines as they will adjust with age and illness. So my current personal fitness goal is to just keep going. Not getting down on myself because I have a physical obstacle hindering me that day, I will modify every exercise or only work as far as I can that day.
Part of my personal goals is to achieve self-acceptance no matter what I am attempting to do. Part of the learning that I am doing is that I am realizing that I am extremely hard on myself and that I do achieve more or a sense of accomplishment if I go easy on myself.
What are your personal endeavors? Whatever they may be, first give yourself some credit for finishing, nearly completing, or even just trying to attempt to attain your goal. Reward yourself first and tomorrow you may just reach or even create new goals.

Hi Mary!
Making personal goals is at the top of my list at this point in my life. I lost my husband of 20 years in May 2017 due to End Stage Kidney Disease. Talk about starting one's life over. The first thing I did was turn back to my writing on a full-time basis. I am working on getting to know who I am again in this new life.

Dear Michelle,
That's fantastic! I have truly found writing to be very cathartic for me. Now if only there was some type of procrastination drug that would kick me in the butt because staying motivated is the hardest part. Best wishes to you fellow writer and editor in your journey ahead.

Dear Michelle,
Was just wondering how that writing is going. Still, no drug to cure the procrastination!
