This Week's Journal Exercise

In your journal:

What are you doing to sabotage your own goals?  Is it habit, not knowing what else to do, or maybe giving in to temptation that is undermining your goals?  Why did you choose these goals?  Why are they important to you?  Plan ahead.  What can you do next time to make sure you stay on track?

This Week's Journal Exercise

In your journal:

Think over you day or week.  Where did you make an extra effort or even go out of your way to impress?  Who were you trying to impress?  Why were you trying to impress this person?  How were you trying to impress them?  What usually impresses this person?  What impresses you?
