Week Two: Fast from Fluff, Get off Your Duff!

If you recall, during Week 12, I asked you to prepare your "whole" self for the Christmas season by asking three questions:

1. What eating and exercise plan will you follow until January 1, 2010?
2. What amount of time will you spend with God through the holidays?
3. How much money do you plan to spend on gifts this Christmas?

One of the only ways I know to achieve long-term goals is to keep tabs on them daily and to keep them in front of you (in writing).

I chose this week's topic knowing that one week before Christmas, some of us will have to seriously re-evaluate how to achieve our goals--either fasting from stuff or finally getting off our duff! (I don't mean to offend, but coaching all these years reminds me that many people struggle to achieve their goals because they give up on them, stop charging after them, or fatigue when they get close to the finish line.)

Let's each review the three questions (above) and set our sights on the finish line of saving money, calories, and time in 2009!

Be encouraged,

Becky

  3. Thank you all for praying for my trip this week--and especially for the weather. Every flight was ON TIME, our baggage was the first to come off the plane, and we all came home safe and healthy. Woo hoo! Your prayers carried us. Thank you.
