30-Day Challenge Update #2: How I'll Reach My Goals

There are goals I have that I hope to follow so that I'll see a big difference by the end of the month, but I have to know how to reach those goals. I mentioned earlier that it's going to take a lot more than just doing workouts and reading my Bible every day. Those are certainly important, but I've discovered that my main issue that I need to overcome is bad time management and the amount of time I spend on my laptop and phone.


I'm closely keeping track of how I'm spending my time and writing down notes of good things I do to congratulate myself, and not so good things I do so I would do better the next time. But I gotta come up with some sort of plan so I won't end up laying in bed and wasting time on my electronics without really giving thought to what I'm doing. This has been such a stumbling block. I need an "e-tox". That kind of thing is just hard to do when you need your computer for school and your hobbies include blogging and checking Tumblr and Pinterest. Also, I use my phone for everything: making reminders, taking pictures, listening to music, looking up directions, etc. I also text my best friend everything, all the time, but I may need to learn to give that up too, cause it really isn't as necessary as I've made it in my head. I'm gonna take the advice to follow the steps to overcoming my addiction in the articles below. I just really need self-control and self-discipline. I know I can do this, but it's gonna take a lot.
