122. [BONUS] Dec Real Life Recap: Letting Go of Goals to Focus on What Matters Most

It’s easy to get caught up in the pressure to achieve our goals, pushing ourselves to the limit in pursuit of success. But that success can easily come at the expense of what is most important in our lives – our relationships, our health, our mental wellbeing. We can get so caught up in our goals that we forget to take care of ourselves and the things that truly matter.

Welcome to my monthly real life recap series, where I break down what it really looks like to craft a purpose as a military spouse. I started doing these recaps in January for two reasons. First, I think it’s so important to be transparent what it really looks like to pursue goals as a military spouse. It won’t always be easy. Obstacles will happen. Your motivation and your excitement about a project will wane. But change and growth is possible in your life.

 

Second, I wanted to give you a framework for evaluating your progress each month. A way to reflect on what happened, celebrate your wins, and learn from your mistakes.

 

I hope these monthly reflections have blessed you and given you greater insight, encouragement, and motivation as we all seek to embrace the life we have, while creating a life we love.

 

Here’s what happened in my life in December, what I chose to prioritize this month, and what I learned in the process. I can't wait to unpack it with you. 

 

Better Together,

Christine
