It’s time to set some mini goals for August and to review how I did in July. I’ve added a Mr Linky to the bottom of this post again so if you’re posting monthly mini goals on your blog then please link up at the bottom.
July, July, July, where did you go; the month seemed to go very quickly and looking back at my goals I was a little ambitious. I only managed to fully complete one of my mini goals to keep our holiday spending in budget. I’m not sure what happened really! The only way is up!
So, onto August. In August I’m back to concentrating on one goal. I’m thinking that if I keep setting lots of little goals and it’s not working then I need to rethink what I’m doing, So one goal it is.
That one goal is to lose 7lbs in August by sticking to my diet, recording my food intake and walking four out of the seven days every week. Wish me luck!
So what are your mini goals for August?

Hi Laura,
Endurance is the key.
Just added my link to Mr Linky´s.
I agree with you. Sometimes is better to focus on one goal instead of many little ones. Weight loss is to you, a bit like smoking is to me
In the past weeks, I´ve been feeling a bit dispersed as well…seems that at this pace, I won´t get anything done but needed a good rest from my underpaid hectic job.
I haven´t posted my August goals yet, (haven´t posted much lately, been reading a lot) but I´m aiming for less small goals too.
See you soon xx

Hi Laura,
I love your mini-goals idea. Unlike you, I have a bunch of goals vs. one focusing goal. We’ll see how it goes; I tried the same thing last month and only really got ONE thing done.
Good luck with your month! Hope you’ve got fun walking shoes.
