Active: I have been going disc golfing nearly every day, and that has allowed me to walk a ton. It is super enjoyable

Connect: I have been talking to more people around me due to things opening up a bit.

Mindful: I have been doing great at taking time for myself by going disc golf. It is a great way to be alone and outdoors for a bit.

Mindful 2: I have been doing a great job of giving myself more compliments, and this has allowed me to boost my self confidence a bit

Learn: I have been struggling to write songs recently, but I am really enjoying learning more about the guitar via books I got at from professors

Give(Daily): I have been doing a great job of checking up on people and making sure they are doing well.  I still try to do one nice thing for someone every day

Give (Big): We have done a great job of changing the stigma of fraternities on this campus by making it known that we are not part of the stereotype.

Active:I still struggle to go the to the rec, but I have started taking more walks around campus as well as the push ups, sit ups, and stretching.

Connect: I just recently had a call with a couple of high school friends to catch up, and that was very nice.  I am still doing everything well.

Mindful: I am taking time for myself, but I still struggle to go to others when struggling.

Mindful 2: I really have been doing better at being more positive toward myself, but I need to make an effort to do a little more with my goals.

Learn:  I am currently writing my 4th song, and it is honestly so relaxing to just write stuff down.

Give (Daily): I am doing great about this, but this is mostly towards friends. I need to focus more on strangers as well.

Give(BIG): I am currently doing what I can with this goal during COVID, and it is going quite well. We have already established ourselves as a fraternity that focuses on community service in the Greek community, and we need to show that to the rest of campus.

Current State-Average Movement Throughout the Day
Things I would like to do at least 4 days a week:

1. Go to the Rec to lift, run, or play volleyball/basketball

2. Do 30 Pushups per day

3. Do 30 Sit-ups per day

4. -Stretch

Update:
I have been doing ok with this challenge.  I do not make it to the rec often, but I have done the pushups and sit-ups.  I get these done roughly 4 out of the 7 days. I just need to go to the rec.

Keep in Touch with Friends/Family During the Pandemic
Things I wish to do weekly:

Text at least 1 friend to just check in

Check in with the guys I live with

Do an activity with my friends (board games, video games , etc..)

Call my parents at least once a week

Update:
I have been fairly successful with this one. I text at least a friend a day, and I talk to my parents often. We do an activity in the house I live in at least twice a week. This is going smoothly.

Accept Yourself!
I have always struggled with treating myself worse than I would treat my friends. This exercise is simply treating yourself like you would treat a well liked friend.
Things that will help me succeed:

Daily check ins(make sure I am taking care of myself)

Take time for myself (SAY NO SOMETIMES)

When a friend is down, I want them to come to me to talk. I must return the favor to my friends.

Listen to music at least once a day for enjoyment! I am a music major, and I need a reminder of the love I have for this amazing art.

Update:
Taking time for myself and Listening to music are going well, but the other 2 are a bit rough. I just need to trust my friends and bit more, and I need to set reminders for the check ins.

Mindfulness of Difficult thoughts
I know this is very similar to the other goal, but this is something I have truly struggled with for a while now. I really need to be mindful of the thoughts i have about myself to become healthier mentally.
Things to help me succeed:

Whenever I have a negative thought toward myself, I must follow it up with a compliment.

Write down ways to change the way I think about myself.

Give myself Daily compliments.

Take 10 minutes before bed to rearrange my thoughts for the next day!

Update:
This is the hardest one for me.  I really haven't been able to force myself to do this one because I do not think about myself enough. I need to place reminders in my room for this one for sure.

Writing Songs!!
I love writing songs, but I have neglected it due to a bit of self consciousness. I would love to write at least 1 song a month!
Things to help me succeed:

Put time in my planner to write everyday

Write for myself and not for others

Set a rough completion date (you can always continue to make the song better after)

ENJOY IT!! (This is suppose to be fun and therapeutic)

Update:
I am still writing my second song, but I have gotten quite busy. I am really enjoying the writing process. I need to set aside time more often to write.

Daily Acts of Kindness: Before COVID took away the ability to do a lot of these, I really enjoyed performing random acts of kindness.
Things to do during the pandemic:

Send a up-bringing text to a friend or family member

Leave a random anonymous compliment for someone to find.

Give a hug to someone you live with or family (Stay safe though)

Update:
I have found myself paying more attention to little things like holding the door, complimenting someone, etc. This has made me feel better about the world just from making others a bit happier. I would say this one is going very well.

Change the ideas behind fraternities!
I am a part of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity on campus, and I would love for people to truly get to know our group for who we truly are. We enjoy community service, music, video games, and just talking. The poor image behind fraternities of only being a place to party is something I would love to make a dent in with my time here.
Things I can do to succeed:

More community service on campus (COVID permitting)

Show the good of Greek life through videos and pictures.(community service, acts of kindness, and fun events)

Show the leadership benefits with people I have in class through my actions and work ethic

P.S. This is a broad goal, but I have the ability to be the change I want to see.  If one person sees the truly good aspects, I will count that as a success. However, where is the fun of stopping at just one?
Update:
This goal is a tough one, but I am doing what I can. I have conversations with people about why Greek life is different than what they think. It is also nearly impossibly to do the events I want until we are allowed to do in person events, so that will be a longer term goal. Covid is really the biggest struggle currently.
