Setting summer goals
I love summer because it is different than the rest of the year. For most of us, is it slower and more relaxed. In the past, I've used summer to just relax into the slower pace of my work. I spend more time with my kids and I travel less for work.
This summer, I'm going to try something a little different. I'm going to set summer goals.
Here are mine:
1. Finish the proposal for the book "What Happy Working Mothers Know" with Cathy Greenberg and Aliza Sherman Risdahl.
2. Start interviewing a lot of working mothers about how they have struggled and juggled their way to happiness - I'm still looking for volunteers so let me know if you are interested in being interviewed.
3. Document my tangible contributions to my company over the past year and set out (in writing) my vision for talent strategy in the next fiscal year (starting Sept. 1)
4. Try something new. We are going to Costa Rica this summer so I'm thinking that zip lining may fill this requirement for me.
5. Get back into yoga
If I do all these things, it will make me feel good because I will have been productive (items 1-3), young at heart (item 4) and healthy (item 5). Wish me luck.
Let me know if you have any goals for the summer.
