I Challenged myself to read at least 36 books in the New Release Book Challenge which continues for the rest of the year. I also Challenged myself to read 12 books for the month of January. I have 1 1/2 to finish today.
These Challenges may seem silly to most people. I have to have a goal to look forward to, and this just happens to be mine. I do no immerse myself in television, movies or the like. I either listen or read books to take my mind off of things. Why not make it more fun by challenging myself as well.
Will update this post with the outcome.
***Update****
I reach too high and finish just under! That is fine. I finished 11 books for the month of January. I will not complain, I still think that 11 is outstanding.
I usually choose to spend all of Sunday reading and relaxing, but a good portion of today I spent with the kids and that comes first if possible. Everyone is usually doing their own thing and that is fine too, but today we came together, I read with my son, had a few heart to hearts with my daughters, and worked on an extensive homework project with my oldest daughter that got everyone involved. It was a good day, so not getting to read that one book, Ha oh well!
Keep striving for those goals that make you happy, but if life gets in the way cherish that too. Don't lose yourself in just getting those goals met, know that they are the extras that encourage your to gro and as long as you are growing you have already won. Take care everyone and I hope you are all well. Goodnight.
