For me having a calendar allows the opportunity to look ahead and set goals within timeframes that our realistic. Whether it’s on your phone, computer or a good old fashion paper calendar I highly encourage it. On my calendar I put future commitments with not only friends and family but also myself. Yes, I said it I put commitments with myself or goals that I want to set on my calendar. For me it’s a sense of encouragement towards my future, every time you check off another day you are one step closer to whatever goal you have written down and allows you to think, what did I do today to work towards that goal? If the answer is nothing, that’s okay. But then what am I going to tomorrow to get back on track? Time is forever passing and it’s our job to hold ourselves accountable to the goals we wish to achieve.
