Set a Goal Today, A Teensy One
We get so caught up in the whirl of our lives. I’m one of the worst, so many balls to juggle, so little time to get stuff done. We’re behind, behind, behind …
Enough.
The to do list isn’t going away and the important stuff always gets done. But what about you?
Set a teensy goal for yourself today. Nothing dramatic such as, “I’ll reorganize my entire closet, color coding outfits and then arranging them by date acquired.”
Think simple, think of something that will make you happy. How about …
- I’ll have a salad for lunch and eat outside and enjoy the sunshine
- I’ll do five minutes of my workout today, if I take an exercise class I’ll do it with a little more gusto
- I will finally make that customer service call that I’ve been dreading for weeks
- I’ll buy a book, an escapist romp that’s just for fun
- I’ll do one thing to freshen up my living space, like buy a new plant or move a piece of furniture, or finally hang that picture
See, you’ve got a little smile just thinking about that one little thing you’d like to do don’t you? C’mon and give it a go. It’s not indulgent, the world will not come to a screeching halt, it’s just how humans are supposed to live. We should be moving towards joy and happiness not towards drudgery. Accomplishments can be made at many levels.
Enjoy, and please tell me what you did for your teensy goal!

Nice post Lisa. Tracks well with what I have been thinking and doing these days. Small goals and small steps towards big goals. Have a great week.
my goal is to get outta here and head to Fairchild Botanical Gardens in Coral Gables as soon as repair guy ever finishes! LOL
Jim thanks for your post. :-)
Tara, enjoy the gardens, I know you’ll do it!

I opened all of my mail from the last 2 weeks and organized it. It wasn’t the most exciting thing in the world, but I feel such a sense of relief.
Yay Amber! :-)
Yep, repair dude left, I went to the gardens for like 3 hrs in the lovely SoFL heat & humidity…walked around, took lots of pics (will upload later), got some sun, sweated a lot (my tank was soaked through) and then went to farmers market!
Excellent day…now to finish the icing for the 2 kinds of vegan cupcakes I just made :)
how’s this one? I’m going to turn off the computer right now…and go relax with a nice cup of tea.
Great article! I love simple steps that yield big results!
Anne, that’s lovely … a cuppa tea sounds perfect right now to me too :-)
