I have a lot of things going on right now to try and make me a better me. I am trying to better myself; spiritual, mentally, physically, and financially. The financially thing just never seem to go quite the way I would like it to, quite honestly neither does the mental or physical thing. So this time I am focusing on all at the same, in place of just one or the other.
I am trying to wake up a few minutes earlier and make sure I talk one on one with God for a moment. I am also trying make sure to remind my kids to pray everyday and say grace at the dinner table. I try to start off my day with a few modern upbeat christian songs. This doesn’t always happens but when my radio is working in my car it does.
I know I need a little help here and there and I can not do everything on my own.
We have developed a budget at home to keep track of our spending. This is a slow and painful process. Feeding 3 teenagers on a small budget is easy. Of course neither is clothing or trying to entertain 3 teenagers.
We are starting off by reading the The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. This is something that my husband and I are doing together. We are also carrying a note book to write down things to do and things we learn through out the day. This helps keep us on the right track and makes it easier to remember all the things that need to be done during the day and through out the week. This has already helped organize our family. The kids are marking their own planners and calendars to help ensure there chores, homework and etc are completed.
We have started exercising by going to the gym 1 to 2 to 3 days a week. Its a start people. We have also been trying to eat better. Although going to McDonlad’s, well that still isn’t completely gone yet and isn’t helping us physically or financially. LOL
I know these are all baby steps but they are a start to lead me in the right direction.
