Accomplishments

ac·com·plish·ment

əˈkämpliSHmənt/

noun 1.something that has been achieved successfully.

One thing I have learned a lot about in my lifetime is goal-setting. Most people live life trying to reach their highest goals- becoming successful, getting through school, marriage, starting a family, etc. However, those are very common and can be quite broad. I've learned to challenge myself with smaller goals and take each day as it comes. Why not enjoy life as God gives it to us? Day by day. 

Among some small goals that I have set for myself, I accomplished one this weekend that I would've never pictured myself doing a year ago. I ran 2.7 miles nonstop in my first 5K (3.1 mi). It wasn't the easiest thing to do, either. If you've  read any of my past blogs, you would know I've been training for an event like this since May. I've never been the most athletic person, so this was a huge challenge for myself. 

Although I do share several of those common goals I listed above, I know God will allow me to accomplish them on His time, not mine.  In the meantime, I will continue to strive towards those goals and set more small goals to accomplish. My next goal is to run a full 5K nonstop in better time, and I know that with God's guidance I can do just that. With that said, what are your goals?
