As with the beginning of each new year we, or at least I, begin to question all the things in our life that we want to change. In truth the first day of the new year is just another day in our lives no different than the one boefore or the one after it. Yet, it symbolizes an opportunity to start over, to change all those things that we meant to do last year and never got around to.
Loosing weight, getting in shape, making old contacts, finishing a book... the possibilities for a new year are endless.
For me, as I contimplate this next year a couple of unrelated ideas have been on my mind that have finnally melded into one genreal idea and concept for the year.
#1 - We are broke, we have got to find some source of additional income, and time is limited, between teaching and coaching and four kids its going to be tough to find an additional source of income.
#2 - I have started to get back into reading (don't know why I ever quit) but as I have I have had a stronger and stronger desire to start writing again (both this blog and to finish my novel - which is on year four now...)
#3 - the overwheliming idea that my life is full of questions...
My overall conclusion and guiding force for this year is to live this year as an exclamation point and not a question mark. When I leave this world, whether tomorrow or 60 years from now I want my life to have been an " I DID !!!" not an overwhelming question mark of " WHAT IF ????"
Could I, Should I.... Yes I can and I should, and so should you. Make this year abour doing. I have decided that I would rather have this blow up in my face at the potential of success than sit around just guessing.
So - Mondays will be blogging day.... Tuesdays and Thursdays will be writing day... Get ready because I am about to explode and I am taking the rest of you with me.
