So many ideas. So many goals. So much honest forgetting to follow through when it isn’t right in my face. Maybe you have that problem, too?
I’m a list maker and always have been. I can work through a to-do list with the best of them. But ***for some reason*** certain daily personal goals don’t get done unless I have a ***different checklist right in front of me*** every day.
I’m tired of getting to the end of the day and realizing I forgot to do X or Z. And I do mean honestly forgot even though I sincerely desired to do that specific thing when I started my day.
So I will be using a habit tracker again after getting out of the habit. (Ha!) I’ve printed off three pages of habit trackers from my shop and will fill out the first one after I hit publish on this post and mail it out to my subscribers. The tracker will be hanging on the door of my office where I have to walk by it a hundred times a day and can see it from my desk out of the corner of my eye. I chose ones with a fall theme. I also chose the apple picture for this post to remind me that I have goals I would like to meet before the autumn arrives. Meeting these goals would bring me much peace and joy if I can meet some or all of them by fall.
Here are some posts I’ve written in the past about related topics.

Is there something you would like to do to reset your cozy life?
Quitting To Increase Peace | Cozy Life Reset – Day 2
I’m working on getting back into the habit of putting on walking shoes and setting a timer to run around the house to do housework for an hour or so. That got off track when I had jury duty, and with my husband working from home more than usual.
Hi Peggy,
Oh, jury duty! Did you end up on a jury? I found the process really interesting when I did it many years ago.
That’s a great idea to go all-in for an hour. David and I often remark how many things we can get done just while waiting for our coffee to brew which is only about 5-7 minutes. I can imagine how much you can get done in a concentrated hour.
Thanks for sharing the idea! ♥
