I'm taking advantage of summer break and the down time my condition has given me to do a little personal development.
I joined a 30 day challenge and will be posting up my progress in regards to that as well.
(FYI for anyone interested its called the 30 Day Push Challenge by Chalene Johnson; its free, pretty much they send you personal development emails every day.)

Day 1:
Your first assignment is to take a look at these 10 areas of your life and rate each area on a scale of 1-10. 10 being very satisfied, and 1 being dissatisfied. Jot down each of these areas, give them a score, and hold on to this list because it will help you determine where you need to focus.
#1: Physical Health - 5 (Must recover my health)
#2: Emotional Health - 5 (Stressed and homesick)
#3: Environment - 3 (Too hot, too different, too homesick, its ruining my health)
#4: Financial - 7 (I can survive, but I could use a little more)
#5: Leisure/Fun - 4 (I don't really go out and do fun things)
#6: Friends/Family - 3 (I miss my family; I don't go out much with friends here)
#7: Significant other - 9 (I *love* my boyfriend; he is the BEST in this world!! But the -1 point is because I sometimes lack confidence in myself as a good girlfriend. I want to do more to become a better person for him, and US!)
#8: Purpose/Career - 2 (I don't know what I'm meant to do anymore!)
#9: Personal Growth - 2 (I don't do much for myself as a person.. usually only for other people, aka work and stuff)
#10: Spiritual Growth - 2 (I could be more of a positive and spiritual person, and have more faith..)
