Complete Challenge Completed! (and Create Challenge Created)

Checking in for the Make Your Own Adventure link up.  Starting the year off with a bang, here's my updates from January, and my new goals for the month of February, theme: Create.

January Complete Themed Goals

1. Complete My Transition into the New Year by:

• Putting away all seasonal décor - Check!
• Finding a place for or discarding all gifts - Check!
• Finishing all leftover tasks from 2014 BEFORE adding new ones - Check! (Discarded a couple, but making that decision took it off my plate, so I'm counting it.)

2. Complete Abandoned Creative Projects by:

• Setting a schedule for and initializing my new art/craft/design Self Actualization list - Check!
• Writing a post about it and updating my Self Actualization page explaining the priority shift - Check!
• Completing the first art/craft/design project this month - Check! (Harry Potter party décor - full post coming tomorrow)

Great Hall floating candles.  Post for these coming soon!

3. Complete Unfinished Challenges by:

• Trying out a new system for habit building - Check! (last month was "Sleep")
• Challenging myself to 30 days of yoga/meditation before bed - Check! (Really enjoyed it!  I missed a couple days, but overall it was really nice and I plan to do more with it.)
• Becoming a grad student - Check! (class is in session!)

9/9!  (The New Year is always pretty inspiring)  And the new goals for February...

February Create Themed Goals

1. Create an Inspirational and Organized Workspace for Art/Design by:

• Organizing and restructuring my portfolio and computer files
• Printing and hanging a motivational poster I made a while back
• Upping the cozy factor of my desk to combat the chilly basement

2. Create a Healthier Lifestyle by:

• Putting together a binder with our favorite (healthy) recipes
• Following through with February's Habit Building Challenge (exercise)
• Researching and learning more about meditation

3. Create Some Stuff!

• Draw something!
• Pottery class with Ryan!
• Greeting card art for scholarship entry!  (Because why not?  Grad school isn't cheap.)

I might be cheating a little bit with the "health" section, but it is something I want to do this month, so why not?  Throw it all in there!

Do you have monthly goals?  What are you "creating" this month?
