Giving my all for June 1.

June 1 will be day 180/180. On December 1, 2024, I challenged myself to take steps to improve my life. I have not been impressed by my outputs up until then so I decided to make some changes.

With 37 days left, do I have any chance at showing up for myself on June 1? I am hopeful. I would like to give my all. I will try my very best.

I used to be an extremely positive person. I always look at the brighter side of things. I think I am still more postive than most people I encounter but I’d like to be closer to my previous cheery & vibrant personality.

But lately, I have not been my better self. A lot of simple things irritate me easily nowadays. I think a huge part of this shift in behavior is my frustration of not getting things done as I hoped them to be. I have goals that I want to have reached by now but I have no motivation to act on them.

They said counting your blessings is really important in order not to loose sight of what I have accomplished so far. So here are the things that I have achieved or set in place:

I have a good-paying job
I have a house
I have a car
My family is healthy
I have life insurance with some investment option for retirement
I have pension from work

These are the things I want to set up or goals I want to work on:

Maximize my RRSP &TFSA – these are savings account for my retirement
I would like to bring my parents & siblings for trips around the world
I would like to be more efficient at work. And eventually find a job that is towards disease prevention through diet and nutrition as opposed to medication-focused healthcare.
I would like to work 3 months then off 1 month and so on
I would like to get my house organized the Mari Kondo way. (I have already started this in January 2025)

How am I going to do this, financially? This is how I plan to breakdown my expenses monthly:

10%- Tithe

10%- life insurance with investment option

10%- RRSP/TFSA

40%- constant expenses (cut down if possible)

20%- money set aside for trips with family

10%- money set aside for atleast once a year trip for myself (with friends lor family)

So help me God. This is my plan, but your will be done. Thank you.

Giving My All for June 1 (ChatGPT version)

June 1 will be day 180 out of 180.
On December 1, 2024, I challenged myself to start improving my life because I wasn’t proud of my progress up until then. I felt stuck, unmotivated, and disappointed with myself. So I decided something had to change.

Now, with 37 days left, I keep asking myself:
Do I still have a chance to show up for myself on June 1?
I believe I do. I’m hopeful. And I want to give my all. I will try my very best.

I used to be an extremely positive person—cheery, vibrant, always looking at the bright side. I still think I’m more positive than most people I meet, but I’m not as lighthearted as I used to be. Lately, even simple things irritate me. A big part of this shift is frustration: frustration from not getting things done, not meeting my own expectations, and not moving toward my goals the way I imagined.

They say counting your blessings helps you stay grounded and recognize how far you’ve already come. So here’s what I have accomplished:

I have a good-paying job
I have a house
I have a car
My family is healthy
I have life insurance with an investment option
I have a pension through work

These are huge blessings. And they remind me that I’m not starting from zero.

Here are the goals I want to work toward next:

Maximize my RRSP and TFSA for retirement
Bring my parents and siblings on trips around the world
Become more efficient at work—and eventually shift into a career focused on disease prevention, nutrition, and lifestyle, rather than medication
Work a schedule that looks like: 3 months on, 1 month off
Fully organize my home the Marie Kondo way (I actually started this in January 2025)

And here’s how I plan to break down my finances each month:
