52 Books in One Year: January Wrap-Up

 





Feeling really pumped going into February because I actually exceeded my January goals. I read 4.5 books this month! I cannot believe this. I used to struggle reading 3 books in a month. Making reading a priority has really been the key to this success.

This month I tried to work on my focus. As I mentioned in my previous post, I really need to keep an eye on  my youngest during his zoom meetings. So, I’ve been reading at the table with him, but I found the zoom audio to be very distracting. I did try ear plugs, but the ones I bought didn’t fit properly in my ear canal. So, I pulled out my old noise reducing ear muffs from the farm. Not the most fashionable accessory, but they did the trick. 

Another thing I noticed this month is that I tend to fall behind on the weekends. The flexible schedule  seems to be my downfall! This is something I’ll have to work on next month. Luckily, the first book I read, Truthwitch (also my favoirte pick of the month), I was able to get on audiobook as well. That really helped me catch up on the days that I fell behind.

Overall, I’m really pleased with my progress this month! There are definitely some things that I need to fine tune, but I’m hoping I can keep up the good momentum. I wish you all luck pursuing your goals this month!
