Don't delete - editors note style

I equip purpose-driven entrepreneurs and photographers to turn their story into connection—and their gifts into lasting impact.

hey friends, i'm katelyn

need to realize is that when I blogged JANUARY’s GOALS…. I only had 5 days to complete them before February snuck up on me! So! This month should be a more productive! In those five days I did manage to complete some of my list. My “Goals” are very different from my “To-Do’s” and this is important for me to remember. The “To-Do” list is a DAILY list that consists of things that MUST be done immediately… like emails, blogging, editing, laundry, dishes, making the bed, drink a mountain dew, hang out with my husband, meet with girls, etc. I don’t consider these things as “Goals”…. they are what make up my “Life”.

So now that we have that settled, I have to admit that when I was looking over what I had accomplished, I was reallllly tempted to mark off a few of these that really aren’t completed yet… just so I looked good. But hey! I’m just being honest. I didn’t accomplish that much and that’s ok. February is a new month and I’m ready for it! So here is January’s RECAP: (Teal and bolded = Accomplished!)
