I need to do some serious goal setting.
My problem with this is that I take on too much too fast. I struggle with motivation, struggle to be okay, and then at some point the frustration with it all, the want for change, transforms into: YES! I must do these things! These things will make it better.
It's like I lunge into a giant shove, pushing myself forward, to make things better. But with the over exertion I fall over.
Why am I writing this?
I want to develop these goals, but to do that, I really need to sit down, and take the time to look at what I'm doing. One goal at a time. One step at a time. Once that's manageable, then to take on more if I so choose.
This is a message to myself. I'm locking in this intention.
