It's now July, which is the middle of the year, so I think that now is a good time to check in and see how your 2013 goals are going! Get out your Goal Sheets and look them over.
Here's mine! Every goal that I have completed is in red, and all the goals that I'm on track for (like drink 5 cups of water a day), are in orange.
Financial Goals
1. Make $13,000
2. Save $500 for California
3. Save $500 for Retirement
4. Save $700 for my Wedding
 
Career Goals
1. Model
2. 10,000 pageviews in one month
3. Get my band started again
4. Find a place to sell my Crafts
 
Learning/Development Goals
1. Study Chinese 3 times a week
2. Be able to do a split
 
Fun Goals
1. Go on a Cruise to the Bahamas
2. Go to China or India
3. Go to Abbey Road
4. See my brother's band play twice
Health Goals
1. Do Yoga 3 times a week
2. Drink 5 cups of water a day
3. Eat 1 tbs of coconut oil a day
4. Eat healthier, homemade food
5. Drink Apple Cider Vinegar everyday
6. Eat vitamins every day
 
Relationship Goals
1. Stay just as happy with my boyfriend as we are now
 
Contribution Goals
1. Give $456 to Compassion
2. Buy jewelry from Eden
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, we go through each goal individually. You need to write down where you're at with each goal, then figure out what you need to do for the rest of the year. Ex, one of my financial goals for this year was to make $13,000. The first half of the year I made $3,900.17. So I subtract that from my goal of 13,000. I then divide that number by 6 (the number of months left in the year), and that is how much money I need to make a month from July to December! I love this, because it gives me something to work towards, and I know exactly what I need to do to reach my goal! So here is my goal list! After you read it, start yours!

*Make $13,000-
I have made $3,900.17 so far this year (my two months off work really put me behind! But oh well, I still got this!). So I need to make another $9,099.83 by the end of the year. Which means I need to make $1,516.64 a month from now until December. Got it!:D

*Save $500 for California/traveling-
I have $300 saved for Cali/traveling, so I only need to save $200 more by the end of the year!


*Save $1,000 for a house-
I have $400 saved for a house so far. So July-December I need $600. No problem, only $100 a month!

*Save $200 for retirement-
I have $100 saved for retrement, only $100 more, about $17 a month!

*Save $700 for my wedding-
I have $300 saved so far for my wedding. Only $400 to go! Less than $100 a month!

*Do yoga 3 times a week-
Doing (and sometimes my love does it with me too! Which is grand!)

*Drink 5 cups of water a day-
Doing.

*Eat 1 tbs. coconut oil a day-
Doing.

*Eat healthier homemade food-
Doing!

*Model-
Besides the Zombie shoot, and modeling for my own clothing line, I haven't done as much as I want. Working on it!

*10,000 pageviews in one month-
I have got 6,005 pageviews in March. I need to almost double that number!

*Find a place to sell my crafts-
Right here! And I'm in the talks for another place, HOPEFULLY! I'll let you know if it works out!


*Get my band started up again-
Not yet. Still trying to figure out schedules and such.

*Give $456 to Compassion-
I have so far given $286 to Compassion.

*Buy jewelry from Eden-
I bought a necklace and a pair of earrings. They make great gifts! And they're beautiful and not expensive! SUCH a great cause! Visit the website!


*Study Chinese 3 times a week-
In the process of doing.

*Be able to do a split-
Working on it.

*Go on a cruise to the Bahamas-
Done!

*Go to China or India-
Done!

*Go to Abbey Road on the River in Kentucky-
Done (I'll be posting pictures from that very soon)!

*See my brother's band play 2 times-
Done!

So now I have taken a closer look at my goals, and know what I have to do the rest of the year in order to reach those goals! Amazing!
So don't forget to do this super important step! It will help you achieve what you wanted to in the year 2o13 (it's halfway over!!! So get goin!)

                                                Peace Love and halfway thru 2013

WOW, girl ! I love it.. you need to pimp yourself out as an accountability coach too! This year I started my bucket list but didn't do any year goals. I should though.. I will.. watch and I'll post them soon on FB!

I know you are going to more then blow some of those goals out of the water! Oh and when you go to India.. I'm coming. I've always wanted to go but everyone thinks I'm nuts!

Oh yay I'm excited! I looove seeing people's goals and lists! (: Fer sure let me know when you do it!:D
Haha yea, I've just recently within the last couple years had a desire to go to India! It just seems amaaaazing, but most people think I'm crazy too! Hahaha. I probably have to put that goal on the back burner for a while, because I have more important goals that I have to focus on sooner (a house, getting married my business, all that). But I'll definitely let you know when I plan on going!:D
And accountabiliy coach would actually be a really good idea...hmmm...I'm gonna have to see what I can do with that!!!
Thanks so much dear, you are so encouraging!:)

    I'm Jessica!

    I've traveled all over the world, but Ohio is where I call home. I'm a lifestyle & travel blogger, and author. I love setting goals, reading, and snuggling up with my fur babies. I can usually be found at my local thrift store, or in the hammock in my backyard.
