2020 Monthly Goals | February Recap and March Goals

I feel that I did extremely well in March; Only not accomplishing one goal, which was the hardest one for me.

Beach at least four times
We ended January at the beach, I’d like to make sure I get there in Feb, too.
We made it to the beach exactly four times this month. I want to keep this as one of my monthly goals, keep it in my routines.

Take a yoga class
I’ve never taken one before and it seems intimidating as hell.
This was the goal I couldn’t finish. It’s too scary still. We will see if this goal makes it’s way back around for me.

Watercolor
I’ve been thinking about painting a lot lately. It’s a good month to stop thinking and start doing.
I certainly didn’t paint every day, but I did manage to paint a bit and that’s a start.

Dance more
February always puts me in the mood for dancing. I’d like to dance more at home, listen to more music, play more records, and I’d like to get out to dance once this month.
I did listen to more records this month with this goal in mind and I did dance more. I Would like to make this more of a routine, as well. I also discovered, at a friends encouragement, podcasts this month and I have been mildly obsessed.

Stay warm - stay slow
In January, I tried to have a slow mindset. I want to make sure that I continue this practice. I also want to stay warm, both in body and spirit.

I think I did achieve this goal in Feb. It is one of the hardest months of the year for me, but I tried to keep a balance between warmth and depression. Some moments depression won out, but in those moments, I tried to remember to slow down, and reach out for help.

Now on to March. I feel that in many ways, March is time to get down to business. I want to carry over a few routines from the previous months: I want to stay slow and make sure to be mindful, read everyday, see at least two friends, dance more, and go to the beach at least four times in the month. And here are the big goals to accomplish this March.

Eat vegan once a week
I’ve tried this one before, but it’s something I have to more purposefully move towards.

Schedule two docs
I have to take my health more seriously and I need to do those things that I really don’t want to do and continually put off. Baby steps.

Schedule two trips
This balances out the above, but If I don’t plan to schedule trips, I don’t take them. I have a lot of ideas where I want to go and have narrow it down and book them up. My short list includes NOLA, Cleveland, Pittsburg, Bermuda, Beacon NY…

Go to Brooklyn
I’ve been saying I would go back for a visit since November 2019, it’s time to actually go.

Write two letters
As soon as I thought of this goal, I received a letter in the mail and I knew I had made a good choice.

How did you do on your February goals? Did you move any that were not completed to March?
