![July monthly goals](https://i0.wp.com/mylifecreatively.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/7-July.png?resize=1024%2C609&ssl=1)
On June 15, the state of California “re-opened”. This of course meant that some mask restrictions either reduced or dropped. However everything did not magically back to normal. I didn’t think it would but apparently some people did. Some continue to be very upset that some type of restrictions continue to exist. Some places and businesses will continue to have mask mandates and restaurants may be able to serve at full capacity but I doubt things will fill up that quickly. If we’re smart, will tiptoe back into the outside world.
In any event, open we are and I’m still working on my goals!!

Hydration-64 ounces x 25 days-total 23 days
SPIRITUAL
Read at least 5 pages daily of Atomic Habits-NOPE-I started this one late in the month and then didn’t keep up.
FINANCIAL
Weekly Budget Review-DONE but I realized that I need to assign specific tasks to each week and not just a general review. Sometimes I need to enter data, sometimes I need to gather data, sometimes I need to document data, etc…..Otherwise, it feels too piecemeal and at the end of the month I feel like I have a ton of little things to do. The 1 task that I need to do each week is track my receipts.

Summer is always an interesting time for goal setting and this year the whole COVID transition makes it even more interesting. It’s generally feels harder to get things done in the summer. In any event, I’m happy with what I did get done and look forward to getting more accomplished in the coming months.
How are you with goals during the summer? Do you get more or less done or does the season have no impact? Share in the comments.
