October 2018 Checklist

Juggling school, some freelance writing, a social life, and working out has made the months fly by so quickly! I’m a little late on the game to this one…but here is what I want to accomplish this month.

  1. Stick to my skincare routine.
  2. Eat mostly gluten-free and dairy-free.
  3. Go to bed by 11 pm most weeknights. 
  4. Write at least 7 Forbes articles.
  5. Continue BBG round two.
  6. Go apple picking, pumpkin picking, or on a hike.
  7. Get 8 hours of sleep a night.
  8. Read at least one book. (I’m reading Marriage Vacation)
  9. Meal prep and pack lunch and snacks every school day.
  10. Publish Elana Lyn posts at least two times a week.

And here’s how I did last month.

  1. Go to grad school. (Yep!)
  2. Eat mostly gluten-free and dairy-free. (Yep and I think eating mostly dairy-free is much better for my skin!)
  3. Go to bed by 11 pm most weeknights. (50/50)
  4. Write at least 7 Forbes articles. (Yep!)
  5. Continue BBG. (I finished BBG round 1 and started round 2!)
  6. Watch less TV. (I watched a few movies but tried to be better about not streaming TV shows forever.)
  7. Get 8 hours of sleep a night. (50/50!)
  8. Read at least one book. (I started two books that I didn’t like and couldn’t finish, which is very rare for me. I read With Malice.)
  9. Meal prep and pack lunch and snacks every school day. (Yep!)
  10. Publish Elana Lyn posts at least two times a week. (Nope, I wish I did but I have a lot of work right now and I’m prioritizing school and freelance work!)
