Goal setting

Today I wrote down my "top 10 goals" I want to accomplish. I had been compiling the goals for awhile and need to get serious and get them in place. I put them on a notecard so I can carry them with me everywhere and set them on my keyboard at work to look at. After writing them out I feel I could really "refine" them, I think just getting the goals in place are a good start for "focus". Anyways, I can get wayyy to specific about goals. I can and will refine as I go. What is important is setting them and working to accomplish them. The joy will come from accomplishing them. :)

I feel that I am to share them. Must be because this is what this blog is all about for me so here they are:

So, as I look over today, I see that I ate about 30% raw. I also see much of what I ate I can get or make in a raw version. Planning and preperation is what will make this a goal of going raw that I can accomplish. Need to work on more water throughout the day.

Food for 6.27.07
1 1/2 c coffee w. van creamer
4 oz peach soy yogurt (this one was good!!)
1/4 c pasta salad
16.9 oz water
1 slice fruit pizza (made on a sugar cookie crust)
salad-lettuce and tomato*
lg fuji apple* (YUM, never had this kind before)
16oz van chai ("treated" myself after getting through a big presentation at work-hmmmm-next time I will get some raw chocolate on hand!!)
16.9 oz water
2 servings wheat thins (32 crackers)
approx 1 c maccaroni w/ cream of mushroom soup (I was making tuna noodle casserole for my hubby and M-I-L.)
soyburger w/raw salsa
avo/banana pudding on almond/date crust* topped w/ not raw coconut
8 oz water

about 30% raw today...want to increase this to at least 50%.
the pudding was "ok", something I didn't like about it though. I'll have to work with it some more. I have to make brownies for work tomorrow so I am going to try my first batch of "raw" brownies.
Hey, they more raw treats available IN my home, the less likely I will feel drawn to the "not raw" stuff. (Can't ask hubby and MIL to get rid of their foods, wouldn't be right) What a revelation Cindy. :) Again, it's back to planning and preparation and trusting in the word of God. (quite a winded blog today)
Peace and Love to you all....................................
