I have been working hard to set 2015 up to be a very productive year. One of the ways I am doing that is by setting goals in all 4 major areas of my life. For 2014, my word was “New” and it was a year full of new experiences and life changes. For 2015 my word is “Focus”. I tend to have a lot of great ideas but I seldom succeed at truly finishing any of them. This year, that is going to change. One way to stay focused is to set goals and keep those goals in the forefront of my mind as I go through each day.

One way I will be accountable for my goals is through a goals group I joined on Facebook. We are a small group of Christian moms who blog who have banded together to support each other as we grow in all areas of our lives. Each month, hopefully on the last Friday or Saturday of the month, I will share my successes and failures of the current month and my goals for the next month. I appreciate your support and input as I tackle these goals and I invite you to join me on this journey and set some goals for yourself. If you blog about your goals, then please link up your post in the linky at the bottom, that way we can all support each other.
