The place of my accomplishments |
Welcome to my Journey of 2020. The goal of this project is to show myself that I can complete the goals that are made by me and for me. This is a group effort in that I'm apart of "Destination: Goal Zone" and I will welcome their support and guidance. This field manual will house everything I've done for the year within drop notes for each month. Objectives for 2020 1. Write 2K words each week. ▼ To write 2 thousand words each week. This includes devotions that will be updated in "The Music of My Life" and linked here. 2. Read a book a month ▼ This list will probably be a few more than a book a month but I know that reading 12 books is something I can accomplish without pushing it. The Velvet Promise by Jude Deveraux Jan 6 to Jan 15 The Mister by E.L. James Jan 20 to Feb 23 Mr. Pirate A romance by A.B. Shiffrin Not Complete, was not engaging enough.

I think I"m going to begin "50 Shades of Grey" by E. L. James. She's currently writing "Freed" and I want to have the first 5 books read by the time she's finished the 6th. Although there's no guarantee she will be finished and published within the year. I can only hope. NOTE: It's been approximately 6 months since beginning this endeavor to accomplish some goals that I want to finish. An update on my personal goals. Personal Goals Revisited ▼ 1. I work in the power of the Holy Spirit to know what to do for others and in my own life. This relationship is coming along slowly. I'm still getting out of my introverted shell and trying to figure out how to share what I know. There are times when the Holy Spirit gives me ideas in the everyday things that make our lives easier. 2. I write my stories every day. This goal is coming along slowly also because I am working during the morning instead of writing. I'm taking July off from work to spend time with my kids so I am hoping to get more writing done. 3. I accomplish all I set out as a goal. All I can say for this one is some goals I am making easily and others are a bit more complicated. But I'm working through all the goals I've set out so far. 4. I know who I am in Christ. I'm learning more and more as the Holy Spirit reveals it to me. I've not given up, yet I can't see how deep my roots are either. 5. I know what it means to be a child of God. This goal has been my favorite to walk out over the last couple of years. Praying and asking God what it looks like to be his child on earth. I believe he's answering my prayers every day. 6. I will create lessons for new HSP classes. I have not touched the classes as of right now. I still want to research and rewrite one but I have not made time to complete this goal. 7. I exercise and stay in shape to keep my body from becoming lazy. I move around and walk around every day. It's not the exercise I want to have. I want to stay active because that's who I am. 8. Complete the classes and challenges I have set before me. This goal is going to take me at least the rest of the year to complete. Probably longer as I continue to get better at writing and improve what I know.

James on 7/1 I have yet to finish it as of 7/27. There is other news. I have read The Power of the Imagination by Andrew Wommack, it was an engaging easy read that I finished. It gives me hope as to what I can have through what I can see in my imagination. I have also read True Stories of the Miracles of Azusa Street and Beyond by Tommy Welchel. This one I will probably read again. This book gives me some insight into the Azusa Street Revival of 1904. It shows me what's possible for the next revival. Updated above. NOTE: This month has been busy at home off WDC. I've had the month to get my house cleaned out and my storage unit cleaned out. We had a yard sale with the items that we didn't throw away. The yard sale was the goal. This cleanout is the reason why I have not completely kept up with this manual this month. Something else that I've done is change the entries and items (my assignment stories) in Excite when you write and See it Sultry. I don't know what I've changed. I think the word counts have changed from June when I made changes this month. I'm not going to worry about keeping up with all those changes simply because I don't know if there's a way to figure out what I changed. I think one item I wrote, I counted the words in June but ended up deleting the whole story and starting over for the class. I have a few reviews to get done for HSP along with writing the stories for the assignments. I'm hoping that I can concentrate on these this week and get them done. The last few days of this month I've had some really emotional days where I think God has been healing my heart and pulling me out of my alone-ness. I've learned through the years that he's never left me nor forsaken me but the physical alone-ness has ripped at my heart. The thoughts and feelings that I have no physical friends around me. No one to talk to and no one who includes me. That has changed in these last few days and it's been a nice freeing time of fellowship with new church members. I also began a group on Facebook Sword of Encouragement come and find it if you want and read some of the same devotions that are in "The Music of My Life" . These posted on Facebook are edited though and not in the same order. I've grown in my spiritual life since writing these and changes need to be made in order for me to understand where I am supposed to go with writing direction. August ▼ Devotions "Devotions Aug 1 - 8" 946 "Devotions Aug 9 - 15" 1004 "Devotions Aug 16 - 22" 1227 "Devotions Aug 23 - 31" 888 Misc Writing "Gracefully Hidden" 710 Total Writing 8/1 - 8/8 946 8/9 - 8/15 1004 8/16 - 8/22 1227 8/23 - 8/31 1598 Month Total WC 4775 Books: As of 8/9 I have finished 50 Shades of Grey and started Extravagant Worship by Darlene Zschech. I have also decided to begin 50 Shades Darker by E. L. James. Still reading Flowing in the Supernatural The list is updated above. You know what would be nice...to finish all three by the end of the month.

I think I'm fixing to begin reading something else that will help me get the reading out of the way. I'm finding that Flowing in the Supernatural is mentally not what I need. Extravagant Worship is not something I'm interested in reading right now either. The only time now that I really read is when I go to bed and these two books while they help me sleep I just don't get through but a paragraph or two before I'm falling asleep. If I want to really get anything from the book, I need to read more of it when I'm awake and can understand what I'm reading. If I were to choose another book to read, it would probably be a romance. 50 Shades Freed by E.L. James is too long for the middle of the month. Let me look around my library and see what I can find.

I made at least one goal. I began reading Insights in Faith by Andrew Wommack on December 21st. I don't know if I'll finish it. Probably will but will keep track if I do. Year end WC 141,309 I don't know that I have ever written that many words in my life, let alone within a year. that's an accomplishment even if it didn't hit the mark for 2k words written a week or even 1K words written a week. 3. Personal Goals Revisited ▼ 1. I work in the power of the Holy Spirit to know what to do for others and in my own life. My prayer life has become more active. I realize how to speak the word over others and how to use the word in my own life every day. 2. I write my stories every day. I realize that this lofty goal was not going to be completed this year when the only thing I wrote was the devotions. 3. I accomplish all I set out as a goal. Yeah, this was a goal that was not going to get done because I limited my writing. 4. I know who I am in Christ. This goal is a process that will probably take the rest of my life to accomplish but I've started seeding the word for this one so it has time and heart space to grow. 5. I know what it means to be a child of God. The answer for this one is in 4. 6. I will create lessons for new HSP classes. Still looking at this one to see what we can do with the classes. 7. I exercise and stay in shape to keep my body from becoming lazy. I wish I could do more than what I've done this year. I realize I don't exercise at work as much as I would like to think. 8. Complete the classes and challenges I have set before me. These were the classes outside of WDC. I haven't finished much of anything this year besides the devotions writing and reading 12 books for this year. End of Year NOTES ▼ I completed the book reading challenge for the year. That's been a plus. This year has held some uncertainty and a lot of fear for a lot of people. I am thankful I still have a job. My family has been healthy through this time of virus; that doesn't mean we haven't come up with our own positive test results. We are all supposed to be quarantined till the Saturday after Christmas. Poor us. I'm still writing the devotions and have them updated here for the rest of the year. I want to write something other than my devotions though. I want to write an erotic romance story. For some reason, the ideas that I have are not coming out as erotic. I have to write the story and then add erotic emotions to the characters. I want to accomplish something more with my writing. I received my ReMarkable this year and am using it for the Bible research I have going. I haven't read anything completely on it. I have things to read saved to it. I just need to read what I have and continue the story. My husband has shown his selfish side and it's really so annoying. He comes home for Christmas this year and doesn't want us to go anywhere on Christmas Eve. So my children can't go to church. We went one year while he was home and no one died, the world didn't end and we still got to spend time with Tony. It was nice to do something different but we did it while he was home and he wasn't happy about it and threw a fit about us having to go. I have one more week to take off for Christmas break then I go back to work. Looking forward to that. I'm working this next week to get some organization done around my office area. I've had to do some rearranging this holiday season as we have gotten new carpet in a couple of bedrooms (mine being one). so I had to downsize for a few days and it was nice not to have as much stuff in my room. I've changed my bookcases up a bit. Not quite exactly the way I wanted them but it works. I realize I've failed this year with my writing project. I'm really not too upset about it. I don't know what resolutions I have in mind to keep this new year. We'll see what happens. Just did the math for the year end word count: 141,309 words written this year alone. I didn't hit the weekly goals that I wanted. but this encourages me to keep going with the writing I'm working on. It's nice to know I can really write some words for myself or for others if I could ever get them out there. |
