I am a hopelessly disorganized sloppy lazy person. I am getting better but it is a long slow road. There are so many things I want to accomplish and I start trying to many things than get overwhelmed and give up everything for a good romance novel. So my husband told me to write down my goals, and then break them into manageable pieces and do a little bit at a time. I liked this idea, and am committing them down here since I do everything on the computer!
1st I'm listing my big goals, then bit by bit I will break them down.
Health-I want to lose weight and help my family eat better. I also want to learn more about natural vitamins and herbs for medicines so I can save on our family budget.
Home-Clean and orderly home
Finances-pay off our debt, commit to a budget and build savings (Dave Ramsey/Crown stuff.)
School-develop a set routine for it
Spirit-commit to a regular devotion time and studying the Bible more for myself
These are all I can think of for the moment :) I'm sure there are more, but I made them pretty general! As I research things I am going to list my plan of attack and each goal. Flylady says a new habit takes 27 days, so each month I will start a new habit in each area of my life. Instead of starting immediately, I am going to think it out and start on Sept. 1st!

Breaking it down is a great idea. I've been working on keeping a daily routine, exercising, daily devotions and keeping an orderly home too.
I hope you are doing well. I hope you blog about your progress (or even lack of it). I've found that blogging and knowing others are reading helps keep me accountable.
