I was told by someone that it is better to have goals and not reach them than have no goals. She was talking about how your goals might change, but that should discourage you from making them. I tend to agree that I do better when I have a list or goals. It worked great with my reading goal for 2013. Then my smart sister at theanticsofthethree22nds decided to do a monthly goal instead of a year goal. I loved that idea as well so I am posting a small list of goals for this month.

Workout 4x a week
Run 10k outside a week

At least 1 non-fiction book

There are more things I will/should be doing...but these are the major ones and things that I often struggle with doing. There are also somethings that should have been finished months ago!
I love "figure out what I'm doing with my life". That one is on my goal list pretty much every year. :-)
