Weekly Review 10/22 – 10/28
Dates: 10/22/23 – 10/28/23
My weekly reviews are going to be shorter and to the point. I’m making this year about simplifying!
Wheel:
Weekly Review:
1. Fun – Score: 7
Highs: We had a low key week but still had fun hitting up a few trunk or treats in our area. Also. My son went to his first school dance. He tried to call it a Halloween party but one look at the school’s site told me it was a dance so of course pics had to be taken!
Lows: I skipped book club again even though I say I want to make new friends and meet fellow book lovers. I didn’t have the book finished and really didn’t want any spoilers so I just didn’t go. Ugh.
2. Career – Score: 8
Highs: I am super busy at work and I enjoy it rather than being bored. Looking forward to some holiday time off though!
Lows: I set a big training goal at the beginning of the year and I am not going to achieve it this year. Too many projects, not enough time. Story of my life.
3. Contributions/Giving – Score: 2
Highs: Not much for highs in this area.
Lows: Still really lacking in this area.
4. Spirituality – Score: 2
Highs: Not much of a high here, but I have “hopes” of a high. I found a new book to read before bed as a goal during November. The book is “Living Untethered”. I really enjoyed reading The Untethered Soul before bed each night a few months ago and I think this will align nicely with improving this area.
Lows: Just need to get started on the book!
5. Finances – Score: 7
Highs: Saving money and still able to make some fun purchases lately.
Lows: No budget and have not synced my tracker in awhile.
6. Relationship – Score: 4
Highs: Some improvement here but still a ways to go.
Lows: Rough patches. Ugh.
7. Environment – Score: 7
Highs: I have mostly decluttered the whole upstairs and it looks amazing. We now have a rule that there is no screen time unless the kids’ rooms, hallway and playroom are back in “mom could vacuum” order and it’s keeping things nice and tidy. Yes!
Lows: Still have some messy areas to tackle but seeing the light!
8. Family/friends – Score: 6
Highs: Holidays are coming and looking forward to spending time with family.
Lows: Still working on making new friends. Skipping book club doesn’t help.
9. Personal Development – Score: 8
Highs: I am making progress on several books now that I have a plan in place for all the library books I check out. Also fitting in lots of podcasts, which inspires me.
Lows: Need more time for all I want to do!
10. Health – Score: 8
Highs: Tracking my macros and lifting heavy is still going very well. I am down to my goal weight, a weight I haven’t seen in quite a while, and I think I’m ready to start a lean build. I love to see that what I’m doing is getting actual results.
Lows: Not much for a low here, just need to keep up with the protein focus.
Weekly Total: 59/100 (-1 from last week)
We are back to being busy with falls sports and even preparing for spring sports already. Luckily I have been keeping things together and even getting to some decluttering.
My focus areas for this week are:
1. Spirituality – Really want to start the new book on November 1 so I need to hold myself accountable.
2. Relationship – Rough month. Still need to keep this area as a focus.
What are you working on this week? I’d love to hear about it in the comments below.
