Making specific goals

I am getting my Zumba certification on May 22nd. I made the decision yesterday. I am going to sign up when I get a check on the 17th. I KNOW that in order to be successful, I have to lose weight. I am going to find Zumba classes in the area where I can pay by the class. Meanwhile, I am workout at home and start taking my dream seriously. I just know that I have to be strong enough by May 22nd to be able to make it through the certification. I am sure that it will be a pretty hard cardio day. I also realize that I will feel more confident, in every aspect of my life, if I lose weight. I know that I will be more attractive to my future spouse and I will be happier when I look in the mirror.
I am also going to start putting on make-up, regularly, start dressing cute, start getting a little color, and that will help me to start feeling better about my life. I have made the following decisions: I will lose 10 pounds by April 30, I will have a part time job by next Tuesday, and I will be out of credit card debt by December, 2011. Yay! It feels good to have a plan.
When I fast forward to the end of the movie (that I am writing), I have a husband that enjoys going to the gym with me and spending time with me in other ways. This man, by the way, ADORES me. Also, my children are reaping the benefits of their mother living her dream. They are healthy, happy and enjoying the time that we are spending doing things as a family.
I know that I can achieve these dreams if I keep the movie, that I have written above, alive and in the forefront of my mind. I also HAVE to take the bull by the horns. I went into Mardel's to get an application today, instead of just filling out an application online. I also received the owner's card so that I can email him after I get the application back to the store, which will be today at 4:00, after I pick the kids up from school.
I love this scripture from Psalm 139:

You have looked deep into my heart , Lord, and you know all about me. You know when I am resting or when I am working, and from Heaven you discover my thoughts. You notice everything that I do and everywhere I go. Before I even speak a word, you know what I will say.
