A couple of people on this site are recording bucket lists for future and past accomplishments. I think this is a great idea. I've been feeling unmotivated recently. I've been staying within my food budget (thank God) but I have not made great strides towards my physical, mental, and spiritual goals. There are many reasons but none sound convincing, even to me. So, I'm going to more clearly outline my goals and give myself some kudos for my past accomplishments.
Future goals:
1. To reach a healthy weight, between 135-65 lbs, and maintain it.
2. To exercise one hour a day, including strength training at least three times a week.
3. To earn an MA in English.
4. To find a career that I enjoy.
5. To become more spontaneous. Relax and have fun!
Past accomplishments:
1. Earned a BA in English, graduating magna cum laude.
2. Dropped from 225 lbs (my weight three years ago) and have managed to stay under 200 lbs consistently.
3. Have been able to enjoy traveling to England, Scotland, Ireland, and France.
4. Have purged my closet of clothes that are too big, too bland, or too unflattering. I have rid myself of two trash bags full of clothes and am expecting more...
5. I like myself. I know myself way too well, but I still wouldn't want to be anyone else (even a person that I think is more beautiful or successful). I would rather be myself.
Hmmm... The future goals still seem daunting, but I will be adding them to the second bucket list in no time.
