January has come and gone already. Hard to believe 31 days can go by so fast. I have been keeping track of my goals and doing things to help me stay focused. Here is how the month developed and ended up and also where I plan to go in February.
Before I get into all the details one tool that really helped me with life this month as well as my goals was using my Moleskine notebooks for my logbook
My big three goals for January were
Goal 1: 2014 Lists were successful. I posted many blog posts about reflecting and making changes for 2015 based on these lists.
1.03.15 Coffeechug YouTube Success and Suck in 2014
1.02.15 Using Evernote Moleskine Planner To Prepare and Plan in 2015
1.01.15 234 Posts and What I Learned from 2014? If Anything
I gathered more data, but did not blog about them all because not everyone cares. Looking at data allowed me to see what was working and not working. It has really helped me develop a vision for 2015.
Goal 2: Sphero Workshop
I am not where I want to be with this quite yet. I have not moved beyond the brainstorming and sketching stage. I took the amazing day at #CentCon15 to see what worked well and this month will be expanding the Sphero session to a full blow workshop for Deeper Learning Conference in San Diego at High Tech High.
Goal 3: Drop 5 lbs
I started the month weighing an all time high in my life of 243.4 As of weigh Saturday after working out I dropped to 230.6. Almost 13 lbs which I am quite proud of. Not too bad for one month of work. I am hoping to drop 5 lbs this month.
I completed 52.84 miles of running
I completed 204.3 miles of biking
Total 257.14
I missed a few workouts and ate not the smartest. It is time to clean both of these aspects up a bit more in February.
February Goals
Based on how January went and looking towards another one month milestone here is what I am after. I have more than 3 this month. They are all important and fit into the three main goals of 2015. One goal not shown in the picture is to drop 5 lbs this month.
