Sept & Oct 2017 Goals

Quite late, but:


I'll keep working on my two main goals for 2017:

1. Wake up/go to bed earlier. Use LeechBlock + try meditating at night. I'm examining what keeps me up so late in therapy. I think if I made myself meditate/deep breathe, I would get sleepy enough to calm my racing mind and I'd drop off easier.
2. Incorporate more movement into my days. I use break software to help with this. I've also pledged to walk at least 21 min/day (science says this helps increase well-being and boost moods, something I desperately need right now. It also has a ton of other health and community benefits).



Other on-going goals/projects for Sept/Oct:

1. Keep up with once a week cooking.
2. Update Master Document and replace this online.
3. Update my CV, LinkedIn, Twitter, blog, staff page, and Researchgate profiles for work. Strip my Researchgate profile but keep account.
4. Make weekly goals.
5. Think about a Destination Christmas, close to NZ. Where to go? And who would come with me?
6. Monthly PhD treat: car share bookings
7. Go to therapy appointment.
8. Renew passport. Half-done. As of 26 Sept, have submitted the check, form, passport photo, and self-addressed envelope. See: https://nz.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/how-to-renew-a-passport/.
