After attending the funeral service for a sweet friend of mine last week, it forced me to think about my life from a different mindset. I started thinking about the outstanding accomplishments I made over the last year, as well as the major mistakes I made too. I decided to make a list of the 12 Goals I will accomplish in 2013. I don’t know about you, but if I do not write it down and get it out there I will NEVER achieve my goals. I’ve learned through Life Coaching that we must be intentional in order to have success!
I challenge you today to take out a piece of paper and write down 12 Goals for 2013 and share it with someone you respect. This typically insures accountability on your part. Once you have done this, Congratulations because you have taken the first step, (baby step) in living your life with purpose.
When I made my list, I did it from the perspective as if it where my last year alive. This frame of mind, forced me to be completely Honest with what I want out of my life. I hope you will join me today and take that first baby step to intentionally make your life different!

A powerful reminder for the new year ahead. Thanks!
That is such a great idea. I will join you in taking this step to intentionally make my life different. Thank you for posting Linda.
Every little step matters when we want to live life with purpose 🙂
Linda,
I am very sorry for the loss of your friend. It does make us put things into perspective. Thank you for the reminder. God bless you
Thank you Melissa 🙂
First of all, I want to say that I’m so sorry for your loss. God is faithful and I’m so thankful that He often uses those moments as a means of drawing us to His heart and His purpose for our lives. And, I’m so glad that you were able to use this time to relish how important it is to cherish your memories but also used it as an impetus to move forward in faith.
I was reading through my journal from the past year and it was such a blessing to see how God had God moved in my life. Often, it was simply through taking a step forward and being intentional. However, I also noticed the pattern of taking a step in faith versus allowing fear to keep me in place-an opportunity was most often missed. I was just thinking today that I need to gather my goals together for the next year and to make them realistic but with a large enough scope so that it would take “Godfidence” not my own. Thank you for the challenge! God used your post to speak to me today in more ways than you know. Bless you dear sister!
Kristi, I love how you are taking the challenge to the next level and setting your goals that will stretch you to (FROG) Fully Rely On God and build your “Godfidence”! It’s so encouraging to me that I can play a small part in your movement for God 🙂 (((Hugs)))
Ok Linda~ I’m taking your challenge. 12 goals for 2013. Hold me accountable girl!
Love you, thanks so much for giving us this great advice/coaching/expertise! We are sooooo blessed by you! I KNOW I AM!
Melissa, I’m looking forward to seeing those 12 Goals for 2013! I’m thrilled to be a part of the Proverbs 31 Online Bible Study Team and God blesses me everyday through ALL of You!!!
