Vee’s Inspiration April 30, 2023
Most people have some type of goals for their life. They may have spiritual goals, financial goals, professional goals, fitness goals, relationship goals, developmental goals, and the list goes on. I've maintained my list of goals for some time now and I've coached and reminded others to keep their list of goals relevant and up to date.
One particular list of goals I have not been intentional about but will start being more intentional about is my “Fun” goal list. Don't get me wrong, the people that know me best know I am perfectly capable of having fun. But I have not made that a goal. And yes, I know, I know you can't program “fun”, and “fun” is “Funnest” when it is organic and unscripted, but you can have a goal to be intentional about “having fun”. There is a subtle, yet huge difference between “programmed fun” and being “intentional” about having fun.
This subtle difference was made clearer to me yesterday. Yesterday was probably one of my top 10 “off days” from a fun perspective.
Here’s my list from Friday's morning Inspiration:
I look forward to going to my 1st professional women’s football game.
I look forward to jumping in the pool and swimming some laps.
I look forward to getting back on my fitness journey.
I look forward to getting back on my nutrition journey.
I look forward to getting 6-7 hours of sleep Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday night🤞🏽
I look forward to watching Citadel on Prime.
I look forward to spending some time with family.
And here’s my list from Saturday’s morning inspiration:
My Saturday goals are...
Get a workout in
Shoot some pool
Get in the pool
Go to a professional women's football game
Kick it with my wife and cousins
And here's my Saturday’s reality:
I slept in till 5:30 am ish✔️ (6 hours)
I did some outside get-ready for Spring work✔️
I got a workout in✔️
I worked on“The610” FitCamp✔️
I mapped out my May nutrition✔️
I met with my outside project guy✔️
I watched 2 episodes of The Citadel✔️
I took a 2-hour nap✔️
I jumped in the pool and did 6 laps✔️
I went to my first professional women’s football game with my wife and my cuzzos. That was nice✔️
After the game, my cuzzos, my wife, and I went to Grind Burger ✔️
We came back home, shot some pool, I beat wifey 3 games to none💪🏽😉, watched the basketball game, and hung out at Miller’s Tavern✔️
THEY did some impromptu singing, dancing, and Drum playing. SMH.✔️
We shut it down around 11:45 pm.
Lord, it was a really good day. Thank you
You can plan some fun or you can just have some fun, either way, be intentional about having fun. It's a perfect way to recalibrate your health, your mood, your spirit, your energy, and your soul.
I hope you had some...
Have a great Sunday!
Stay safe!
