oh Dr.Seuss you are so smart

so Lori and I have not really talked much about our new year goals. I guess you can say we are really trying to live in the moment. handle what needs to be taken care of right now. but we are always talking about the future. trying how to reach our dream – having a successful bakery. how to keep growing it, so people everywhere can have healthy snacks to enjoy. having a successful blog. keep growing so we can help and reach more people.

Lori and I both feel it is great to have goals.

goals are always a nice push to do better, to be better! we are always looking for ways to improve our health. help others. just overall be better individuals.

we are not perfect. far from it. but we are us.

I am Michelle. and Lori is Lori.

we have a lot changes that are going to happen this year. and we are going to try our best to embrace each one. and try not to stress too much, haha

 

boy isn’t this quote so true….I got so many things I want to do just need time. more time.

Lori and I are both very grateful for the life we have.

grateful for an amazing life we have yet to live!

 

Hello 2012! The twins are ready.

I do promise one thing, I am going to be more optimistic about life!

Lori and I still plan working on a goals list for our 2012. we admit we are not the best at really keeping up with our goals. we have these BIG ideas but the little goals to get to those big ideas always seem to change. life changes, so we adjust our goals to fit those changes. not sure if that is the best plan of action but it is what we seem to do.

Twins Question: Are you good at keeping up with your goals? Have you already made a 2012 list of goals? Do you like writing down goals? Do you feel they help you?

till next time,

Michelle

love going on Pinterest and getting inspired

I think it’s great to see New Year’s goals but we should remember to revisit them each month to keep on track. It’s so easy to forget how motivated we feel right when the New Year begins!

I’m LOVING that positivity quote you have up here!! I just wrote a post about staying positive in the midst of negative people, so this is right up my alley :)
Wishing you two a very happy New Year, full of accomplished goals and happiness within :) xo

Thanks Cara! We will have to check out your positivity post!!

I like your outlook- constantly reevaluating and changing is important. I’m not afraid to bag a goal if it no longer fits into my visions and passions later down the road. I have a lot of uncertainty as I’ll be graduating from college this may, so goals are tough for me to form right now! I have some ideas though and will be tweaking them all year I think.

I love everything about this post. It’s like you read my mind today, Michelle! You and Lori are so amazing, talented, and kind. There’s nothing you can’t handle! I just know it. :-)

I used to be overly ambitious and make a list of so many goals (some of which were too much of a “reach”) and I’d get so disappointed in myself for not making them happen. Since then, I’ve streamlined my goals and made them more achievable. Now, I bang right down the list and it feels so good!

I love the Dr Seuss quotes! This was perfect timing as Im in need of some inspiration today and those words are perfect. I’ll be writing a list of 2012 goals this week and reflecting on all that happened in the past year. xoxo

‘more ideas than time’ story of my life! i do fairly well at keeping to my goals and checking them off. i haven’t wrote my list on paper yet but i definitely have some things floating up in my head about what i’d like to accomplish personally, professionally and recreationally :) best of luck!

I totally repinned the picture about positivity!!! People always give me such a hard time about being so positive but I think it’s a good thing to have that type of outlook!!! I’m going to print that out and put it on my desk ;) hehe

I hope you both have a fabulous start to the year!

Awesome outlook on the new year! I find that writing out goals – especially on the blog – helps me stick to them. Excited for what 2012 will bring!

same here Rachel we have to write them out too!

Love Dr. Seuss and love the other quotes (I repinned them from you!). Anyway, I’m trying to focus on goals more instead of winging it. :) I made a vision board last year, which really helped. I’ll be writing some things down I want to focus on too but love having a vision board. Not just Pinterest. ;)

Happy New Year to you both!

What a great set of quotes! Now you can come back to this all year and be inspired!

I know what you mean about the little details versus the big picture. Sometimes, I can get lost in the little details too!

Seems like you ladies are doing great, looking forward to great things from you this year!
love
Ela
