Goals:
1. By the end of January, I will be getting 8 hours of sleep with no more than one interruption an evening in 5/7 days a week. I don’t know what the first step is.
2. By the end of January, I will have organized my home by cleaning out the spare room closet, filing the huge pile of papers, setting up an organization system in the spare room, and maintain a ‘decluttered’ home. I will start by labeling file folders and setting aside time in my schedule.
3. Within 3 months, I will have regained the waist size that I was on my original assessment. I will start this by starting to plan out my meals and creating a workout schedule, along with a reinforcer.
