Hello GAF! It’s August! Sorry I’m a little late greeting the month. I got absorbed by all of the Hobi coverage over the last few weeks. I also didn’t get a chance to check in about my #whatyoongiwants goals for July but I actually did a pretty good job.
If you are new, I host an accountability club here! Every month we check in with our goals for our month and reward ourselves for hitting them or celebrate the journey along the way. I totally SPACED on creating check-in posts but I’ll do one every other Monday of this week. Make sure to post your goals for the month here if you’re a GAF Bestie!
Okay, let me check in on what I wrote as my goals for last month:
GOAL #1: Figure out what I wanna do for a living
GOAL #2: Write at least 30k words for Plant Daddy (more info about that soon)
Goal #1 I 100% accomplished! I figured out I wanted to take a step away from being a business “personality” and focus on my writing and creative projects and consult as my business. I’d already been doing this a little already but this month I made it official. It’s VERY SCARY but ultimately the right step to take.
Goal 2 I didn’t accomplish! While I did write around 10k words I didn’t get to 30k!
I do feel like my big goal #1 was HUGELY important and I’m glad I got that one done. Plant Daddy is a STRUGGLE. I feel like I can’t write anymore.
My big goals for August:
