A Daring Adventure or Nothing

Posted on by Rachel

Happy new month, lovelies!

I am so grateful that God has gifted us with another month to cherish. It’s exciting to think about what He has in store for us these coming days.

I love beginnings because it provides me with a clean slate. I am planning to incorporate journaling into my life again. I used to do this everyday when I was in college. Unfortunately, my dedication for this hobby got drained in the sink and so a downward spiral began for my thoughts.

Happiness oozes in me as I share with you that yesterday I started with my November Scripture Writing Plan and November Writing Prompts.

Goals

Here are some of the goals I have for this month.

  1. Buy a whole outfit.
  2. Eat at a restaurant I haven’t been to.
  3. Start a new Prayer Journal.
  4. Finish my book by 50%.
  5. Finish “The Four Million” by O. Henry,

With all my heart, I am hoping I can accomplish these 5 simple goals. As a person whose commitment gets lost faster than a bubble, this can be pretty hard for me. I will be needing the good Lord’s help for this. (tbh, I can’t do anything without Him)

I’m just full of excitement for this month! What about you? What are your goals for November? Share them on the comments below.

Truly,

Rachel

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.
