Thanks for stopping by! I'm so happy you've found my little corner of the internet where I share our home projects as well as dive into lifestyle content. 

Hi, I'm Yami

I started a monthly goals post and wanted to give a brief update on how I fared. Chunking out my yearly goals into smaller monthly ones makes it a bit more tangible for me and helps make them more attainable.

This template was inspired by this post on Instagram. I really liked how she included the second slide which is essentially how each goal on the first one would be achieved. This allowed me to create the to-do list if you will and I came back to the post several times for reference.

So how did I do?

Goals Update:

I got half of them completed. Progress is progress.

Gym Goal: I’m still trying to nail down my gym routine. I tried to keep my Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule but working out from 0730-0830 meant that I didn’t get to work until about 0930 and well, that’s too late. Even though my job is pretty flexible and encourages gym time, I still need to be there at a decent hour. I think for March I will go earlier. Which basically just means sucking it up and waking up earlier. My weight stayed steady all month.

Book Goal: I didn’t read a single thing this month. I’ve been pretty busy at work.

Savings Goal: I only added $100 to my emergency fund in February. That’s mostly because I started up our sinking funds for Disney so I’m diverting extra dollars there. Still, every penny counts. I’ll go into more detail on how I set up my savings accounts in another post.

Debt Goal: I paid almost exactly $1k additional off thanks to some brand campaign payments coming in.

Language Goal: I’ve been rocking my French classes on DuoLingo and am on a 40 day streak right now of practicing days. if you’re on the app add me Yamib815.

Screen Time Goal: This one is harder to track since I have to do some math. Noah likes to use my phone in the mornings and just randomly throughout the day so it skews my screen time. I have decreased is slightly but not as much as I’d like so I’m going to carry this goal into March.

Speaking of March, I’ve been so busy that I didn’t post my March goals post yet but that’s coming.

Do you set yearly goals or do you chunk them out to smaller ones like I did here. It’s been really helpful honestly to do it this way and I think I’ll continue.

    I like this approach to goal setting! 2023 is the first year in a while that I haven’t set any resolutions or goals, but seeing how practical and flexible this approach is inspires me to reconsider. You’re making great progress!

Spoiler alert...it's about as simple as they come but has made a big difference in my complexion.
