I don't really like some of the thoughts Ive been having these days, nor some of the things I've been doing to fill the voids. Emotionally I've been fairly stable. Spiritually I've been full of good intentions, strong in my faith and hope, yet lacking in my strength of will. Health-wise I am slacking off in both my physical exertion and my eating habits. My list of wants and goals are all still there... And then some. I do not spend enough QUALITY time with my family. Financially... All is pretty much the same although I do feel I am becoming more and more able to resist spending impulsively.
Sadly, mist of my energy has been going mainly toward trying to get my house clean and organized. I just can't seem to be able to focus on anything else until this happens. This has to change because I know that there will probably never be a time that I feel like it is clean enough or completely organized.
So I return to this notion of re-prioritizing my life and taking a look at my wants, needs and goals.
WHO IS IMPORTANT and what do I think is most important to them right now?
Mike - being well physically and financially and getting back on touch with his own needs, even the selfish ones.
Macy - quality time with the people she loves (the role modeling years are changing for her. She is aware of and questioning new things every day.)
Nick - he is hard to read. Physical activity is always number one in his life but I think he has an emotional and creative side that needs to be nurtured.
Stephen - friendships and responsibilities. He seems to thrive on watching over others and being the caretaker in his relationships.
Mom - just a phone call now and then.
Friends that matter (Mindy, Beth, Nicole, Leah, Sharla). I cherish these friendships and need to put some energy into them.
WHAT is important right now?
Strengthening my faith.
Strengthening my marriage.
Being as healthy as possible.
Saving/earning money.
Creativity.
Charity.
With these two lists I hope to be able to reprioritize.
