Made it to Saturday with a 6 out of 10 total score!!!!!!!!!.

Well when I look back on the week it is clear that Wednesday was the day I was in crisis. The other 4 days of the week I worked well and hard to accomplish my job tasks so much so that my boss is pleased and I will likely see some real tangible results from my efforts. Yes, it would be all the better if I had worked hard on the Wednesday but I think that, judging from where I was the week before, I have come a long way in a short time.

My home goals did not fare so well. I started off well but failed to walk the dog or work around the house from midweek on. While that is not causing the same type of crisis, say that work would cause, it is still my goal to find a balance. I mean walking the dog and doing a small project each night just isn’t that hard to do. When my wife is on 3-11 shifts this next week and my kids are with me I believe that I will want to do these things.

My eating habits have improved but, again, I have a huge area of improvement since as the week ended my wife and I went out to dinner twice, spending money we don’t have, and we ate high fat food. Again, with the kids arriving Monday our eating habits will improve.

All in all, I am encouraged by what I accomplished. If I were to rate my success out of 10 I would have to give my self a 6 out of 10. Had I worked Wednesday it would have been a 7, had I accomplished my exercise and 8, watched what I ate, 9 and home improvements a 10 out of 10.

So my Goals for next week are simple. Aim for an 8 out of 10 score with my work being maintained for a full week, which happens to be a 4-day week due to the Thanksgiving Monday.

Bottom line; I am please with my conscious efforts in all the areas of my life but there is lots of room for improvement.

I am proud of the fact that I am prepared to continue into my second week with the same goals and desire to improve.
