Goals 2019

Do you make yearly goals?  Every year I make goals.  I always make the standard fitness ones {lose X amount of pounds, fit into a size __, PR on a certain exercise} every single year.  

I have set a few for this year.  They all seem pretty attainable.  Did you know that when it comes to making goals they should be S.M.A.R.T?  

Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Relevant
Time-based

In short, you should make goals that you can actually reach, and give yourself a set time to do it.  Instead of I'm gonna lose 100 pounds, you should try I'm going to start going to the gym 3 times a week so I can lose 10 pounds by April.

Here's my list

1. Fit a size 9
2. PR everything
3. Compete {yes, i know that this is pretty broad but, I'm still deciding what I'm gonna do}
4. Grow my business
5. Be happy

2018 was a rough year for many people, including myself.  I'm just really hoping to make 2019 a good year.  What are your resolutions/goals for 2019?  Let me know

I'm Nobody. Who Are You?

I'm 34 years old.  I have been a mother for 16 years.  For the past 9 years that is ALL I have been.  I am tired of not being known for anything.   I don't have a "me" anymore.  I run my own business but, when people see me that's not what they see.  I'm Kaylee, Mo, and Sunny's mom.  I'm "Ms.Katie". 

The last time I did something that I wanted to do was 2013.  I used to  enjoy running mud runs.  I did them 2 years in a row before the one I was doing stopped offering them near me {I think they might have even gone out of business}.  I have tried to be my own person many times and I've always failed.  I'm tired of failing.

I finished this bike ride and I am SUPER proud of myself.  I like training for something, I enjoy finding something that makes me, me.   So, what's next?  The worst part of completing any big task is not knowing what to do next.  I kind of feel empty and pointless.  It felt good finally getting back to being a real person again, I can't quit.  

The thought of becoming a new person is really exciting.  I'm excited to take this journey.  I have a few ideas of who I want to be.  A couple things I want to focus my attention on.  Hopefully you'll stick around and find out what I decide to do.
