Saying hello to October means a few things: that the leaves are changing colors, it’s time for boots and sweaters (I can’t help it, I’m a basic white girl!), pumpkins are starting to pop up everywhere, and it’s time to write my October goals list!
Last month was SUPER busy, I ended up doing 7 weddings (eek!), and that’s on top of all the other awesome-ness that we had going on (like fall mini sessions and shooting for the Harrison Opera House!). As far as my September goals, I think I did pretty well! I didn’t get the chance to go apple picking, but that’s on the agenda for this Saturday, plus I’ve been super happy to be blogging weddings once a week (love showing off my gorgeous couples!).

October Goals List

Personal Goals

• Finish the book I’m reading
• Get to bed earlier (I’m super bad about staying up late!)
• Be proactive with wedding planning (this month I want to secure the venue)
• Take the kids on a fall outing: hayride, pumpkin picking, etc.

Business Goals

• Write out a calendar of blogs and what day they’re being posted
• Schedule times to do all my client viewings
• Better response time to clients when they email/message
• Time – schedule specific times to work and times not to work (so I’m not sitting on my computer 20 hours a day!)
