January overall was a good month.  By setting fewer goals, I feel  focused, and I am seeing some positive impact on a couple areas of my life.

Here is my progress in January:

My 12 Goals for 2015

Health

• Work out 2 times per week, work up to 3 times per week by April
  • Worked out 6 times, plus one full day snowmobiling, and one afternoon of burning brush.  Still have a ways to go with this goal.
• Drink more water (60oz a day)
  • This has been an adjustment.  Most days I am getting 40 oz.  15 days out of the month I consumed 60 oz.

  • Read in January: Living Well Spending Less: 12 Secrets To The Good Life
