Goals/Life Update - Day 98/1001

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence. - Helen Keller

Goals Completed: 3
Goals in Progress: 21

I’ve started the meditation and preparation for the Puja in November (#13, #22), and I note that I’m clearing out a lot of negativity and sadness, and experiencing some flashes of anger. It’s a new cycle for working on my sleeping and eating habits (#14, #16). Fasting will happen (#15) in the best cycle for that round of meditations. I’m still rereading Castaneda (#17).

I’ll train tomorrow (#01, #10), as tonight is the local CERT meeting. There may be upcoming classes or exercises (#60) to prepare for. Sadly, I missed the deadline for taking a trip on a small boat, and learning nautical skills (#33), so I’m taking it off the in-progress list. I’ve signed up for 12.5 CEUs of free suicide intervention training (#41), and that will complete my yearly license and certification requirements.

It’s the season for preparing the garden and the greenhouse for winter, and that process has started. I’m working on getting the garage cleared out so I can actually get my truck back in. I wrote my monthly three haiku (#19) on the way to SeaCompression, and we rangered the event without incident – and all the Burning Man gear can now be cleaned and put away.
