Eco-chic Lifestyle Change Week 6: Weekly Update

My SMART goal was to walk to school and work at least 5 times a week. I did great this week and completed my goal, actually I made the walk 6 times.

Successes & Challenges

This week I had more successes that I faced than challenges. I have been in the mindset of walking places so I did not put up a fight or make exuces of why not to walk. I started to wake up a little earlier on certain days, to help myself in not running late for school every day. Another great success I had was the weather in the last week, specially in the last 2 days. I was walking to school with only a sweat shirt on and fetl totally comfortable. This lead to the feelings I felt this week, which was happy and not cold. I have just been thinking a lot about the cold weather coming and how it is going to affect my goal but I'm still waiting.  I did not face many challenges this week, it was a very positive week. However, I did come to the decision that if I am going to continue to keep walking I should invest in some new shoes. Mine are wearing out and do not provide much comfort. So that is a challenge I can continue to work out in the weeks coming.

Plans for Next Week

I still feel that I am going to keep my SMART goal as it is. I did not complete it last week, but I did great this week. I looked ahead and I only work 2 days next week, so with my 3 days of school I should achieve my goal. If I worked more days I would consider making my goal more challeging.
