Getting Caught up in Life

Over the past few days I have come to the realization that I am one of those people that gets caught up in life very easily.  This effects me in so many ways.  It effects my health because I am "too" busy to think about what I am eating and drinking, this effects me financially as I tend to just spend money on things and stuff that is not needed, and it effects my mental well being because I tend to stress out over every little scheduling issue that I have and will sit here and rework it over and over until I am completely stressed out and it is all I can think about.
With all of that being said I am setting some goals for myself:

  • each day I will take at least 10 minutes to myself and clear my mind
  • I will try to not worry about things that I have no control over
  • I will start becoming more conscious of my spending habits
  • I will pay off both of my credit cards
  • I will pay off the last collections items that I have
  • I will pay of my medical bill

I believe that with these goals I can succeed in a healthier lifestyle and change for the better.  I have been working really hard on changing to healthier eating habits, becoming more active, and working on my mental and financial health.  These goals will serve as stepping stones along my path.
