Challenge #4: In your own space, create some goals!

So, I've never been great at setting/keeping goals. A year seems so long, and lately longer still. I'm going to take my personal goals month by month. And fannish goals. . . well, I didn't write much last year and I don't know how to be excited by things when I'm by myself. I'm not good at finding community anymore.

Janurary:
Get up with my alarm - no snooze. <- I've done really well on this and it hasn't made me any more tired than usual.
Take the dogs out twice a week. <- I'll need to take them somewhere tomorrow to keep this. I know they more than the backyard exercise I do everyday, but it's cold and wet and I'm desperately looking for my motivation.

Februray:
No fast food - I intend to make a exception for maybe like two real meals from restaurants as long as vegetables are included.
Finish a craft - I have a lot of barely begun projects to choose from! But maybe my finger maze I started on a canvas with rope and tissue paper.

Fannish:
Finish the last fic Sam Wilson/Bucky Barnes friends with benefits and lube trilogy:
Lube -> Not Just for Weird Stuff
Porn -> Not Just for the Lonely
Sex -> Not Just for Pals

Enjoy Falcon and Winter Solider even if it's not perfect. (It's not going to be perfect.)

Try hard at the getyourwordsout habit pledge I made to build up a habit of writing daily. I think I'm shooting for 240 days. Trying to get a word count was too stressful because I could see the bad habits forming just to shove more words on the page.

Those sound like good, workable, achievable goals! Good on you. :D

Thanks! I was too scared to make "Don't buy anymore chips." an actual concrete goal, but so far I've been doing pretty well at that one too. Funyuns are my downfall.

Monthly goals are fine. There are also one-day resolutions (I have completed 3 of mine as of today) and fun resolutions. I collected a bunch of ideas and alternatives for New Year's resolutions this time because so many people seem to struggle with them.
