New Goals
Today I decided that it was time to update my goals.
I originally only had 3 goals:1.) Become more Active2.) Stay Strong3.) Become a better girlfriend
Those goals seemed to suit my needs the most while Taz was in Basic Training because I was often bound to my bed with depression, I had negative thoughts about our relationships and where it was going, would often lose faith in us, and was going through a rough time adjusting without her. But, nowadays...it would seem that while the same goals still apply, I have other things I need to focus on too.
Since coming to Germany I have not been as Active, I have not been working out, AND I know for a fact that I have gained a good amount of weight because depression has me bed-ridden again. The culture shock I have had from being here can really be too much at times. While some may say it's no excuse (and I mostly agree) it's something that has to change.
Also...another goal that I have made is that I want to find my Path. While I have decided that neutral aspect of The Force is something that completes me and feels right for the time, I know that it would not hurt to delve more into Jedi-Realism and try to find that heightened sense of enlightenment in the positive aspect of things. Luckily, I have a very good Jedi Master that sends me audio books and resources to try and get me to that higher plane of existence by having me ascend past the limitations of reality and etc. So finding my path is something that is important for me too.
Lastly, I placed a future goal by wanting to finish my college degree. Naturally I do not want to start this until 2016 when I return home, but I decided to make this goal as a reminder that I really need to stay in school and do something in order to have some sort of career. If I manage to get into shape the way I want by 2016 then maybe I can still become a cop...but my true passion lies in radio and photography. So, I could either go back to school to DJ with a second-degree in photography, OR I could still go the Police Academy if nothing else seems to work or suit my fancy. My problem is that College bores me, and I'm always questioning where I am headed in life with my chosen career. There is so much that I would like to do and yet I fear that I do not have the qualifications. Still...I thought that updating my goals was a good thing.
Today I will download those audio books and by tomorrow will start listening to them and working through them with my Master. I also downloaded a daily fitness app on my iPod and have decided that I will use this to try and motivate myself to work out a little more. All of these things put together:1.) Staying Strong2.) Being a better Girlfriend3.) Becoming more Active4.) Finding my Path5.) Finishing my College Degree6.) Getting back into shape...all of this I believe will put me right where I need to be.
I might even add "learn German" into this since it's something I really should do (and should work harder at) But, for the time being, I think I will leave it alone. Anyways...I have a big day ahead of me and I should really get going. Thank you to everyone who has supported me thus far and I hope to start showing more results here soon.
