February 2023 Goals

The first month of 2023 is over – WOW!

With that, it’s time for me to set my smaller goals for the month of February in order to advance my objectives for the year overall.

  • Read 14 books
    February is a great time to do time-based challenges because the month is so short. With some time away from work and some dedicated reading and audiobook listening, I hope to clear a book every two days or so this month. Considering I read a 400-page novel in a few hours the other night, I think this one is totally doable and will set my reading goals up even better for the rest of the year.
  • Post 5 YouTube videos
    I currently have 7 YouTube videos on my content calendar for the month, but I totally acknowledge at least one of those will probably drop at some point. I did some really useful topic generation and brainstorming last week to help beef up my content calendar, so I think it’s set me up well for the month.
  • Finish 2 quilts
    I currently have two quilt toppers that need basted, quilted, and bound. I’m really proud of myself for having gotten both sets of toppers done but the events I wanted to gift them at are quickly approaching and I want to make sure they’re ready to rock and roll by then.
  • 80+ miles in training
    Considering I have a marathon the first weekend of March, I’m really hoping to get my training in a good spot and get everything squared away to feel prepared for that race
  • Lose 5+ pounds
    I’m trying to make some better food-related decisions as well as incorporating more activity throughout my day. I’m really devoting myself to walking on the treadmill for work at least every day, so we’ll see how that shakes out in keeping me active.

All in all, some exciting goals moving me forward this month – stayed tuned!!

It’s Me, Tory D!
