This is the time of year for me to reflect on all that has happened this year and to anticipate my goals for the coming year ahead. Last year, I made several goals for myself. I'm more than happy to report that over half of them I did indeed accomplish!
This list included many wonderful things, including unsaid, unwritten goals that I honestly did not write down because I felt they would be too far out of my control to include on my list for the year (as in a stable job that pays money that will pay the bills as well as be a job I can grow and mature in for years to come)! I am elated at these accomplishments and I am eager to see what this year brings!
I do have 2 goals this year to accomplish that retain to writing. And yes, one goal includes you!
1. Continue blogging on a more regular schedule.
2. Complete my book.
That's right. I'm daring to include it on my list of goals and declare it publicly. Why am I challenging myself to this so daringly (in my mind)? Because I want to hold myself to it, for one. And honestly, while it was a goal this past year that was not met (due to so many life changing events this last year), I feel that this is the year. I felt the impression that it is so when I came across a quote earlier today:
"Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway." ~Earl Nightingale
It hit me so hard. And truthfully, it's been weighing on my mind for awhile: when I should sit down and finally finish this. So I believe it is time. Truly the time to take the time and write.
I have no idea how I'm going to accomplish this. I have no clue how I will balance everything. But I also had no idea how we were going to move across country in a matter of only 3 weeks with no idea of where we would live and how it would work. Everything fell into place beautifully to move my family because it is what needed to happen for our family. So to will this fall into place.
So I'm committing. I'm saying it, loud and clear. I will have a completed book this year.
That sounds exciting! When can we begin?
excited for you to write in blog more this year!!
