My goals inspired by Cinderella:
Goal 1: Finish goals from Snow White. 1. Create a personal space that inspires happiness, creativity and calm. (I think this goal might be reoccurring until it is officially complete. Also, I seem to keep thinking of more ideas on how I can create this space.) 2. Clean! 3. Paint bedroom walls
Status: The walls are painted, but cleaning is stalled. I want to get back to cleaning this weekend.
Goal 2: Sew some bedroom curtains. There’s a lot of sewing going on in Cinderella. I thought curtains would be an easy first sewing project. We’ll see.
Status: Not started
Goal 3: “Have Courage and be Kind.” This quote is from the live action remake from 2015, but I think it’s a great motto to live by. I try to be kind anyway, but this month I want to be hyper-aware of kindness. What is kindness really and what does it do, not just for others, but for yourself? Also, I really need to work on being kind to me. Maybe I’ll come up with a positive mantra or something.
As for courage, well, I’m going to work on being courageous in all things I do. And maybe find some courage and do some of the things I want to do.
Status: In progress
Goal 4: Make pumpkin waffles following the recipe from Cinderella’s website. https://family.disney.com/recipe/cinderellas-dreamy-pumpkin-waffles/
Status: Not started
Goal 5: Take a break! My vacation was technically planned before this goal was thought up, but it works out well! Cinderella gets a few hours off her busy schedule, why can’t I? I’ll have more than few hours off (thank goodness( and I will be switching fandoms I am going to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter! Cinderella will not be far from my mind, however. I wonder what Cinderella would do if she found herself at Hogwarts? Harry Potter and Cinderella have some things in common, the more I think about it. Cinderella-Harry Potter crossover anyone?
Status: Not started
Goal 6: Job search. I feel like if she could’ve, Cinderella would have found a new job instead of working for her stepmother. Well, in all fairness she does become a princess. That counts as a new job, right?
I don’t expect to be the next Meghan Markle, so one job that pays well instead of 2 jobs that pay ok will work for me.
Status: In progress. I’ve applied to one job and have more I want to apply to. Applying for jobs really amps up my anxiety, so I’m going to do this slow and steady. And with courage.
Goal 7: Dreams. My dreams are usually very strange, violent or so realistic I wake up not sure if they really happened or not. So, I am going to work on my dreams for my life. What are they? Are they plausible? How can I make my dreams into a reality?
Status: Semi-started
Goal 8: Clean my carriage. Get it? car-iage? Ha! Anyway, I really need to clean out my car and now that I have a leaking cooling system, with the windows down I feel more aware of its dirtiness for some reason. I wish I had a fairy godmother who could bibbidi-bobbidi-boo it clean. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?
Status: Not started
I know there are a lot of goals here, but with some hard work I think they are doable. But if you happen to have a fairy godmother on hand who can help me out, let me know!
