It's that time of year when I take stock. What would I do differently? What character flaws do I want to improve? If I could spend my life doing exactly what I want what would that look like and more importantly how do I get there? Soul searching; and I've been doing it for weeks. So in an effort to be accountable, and who better to be accountable to than the coffee girls, here are the changes I'd like to make in 2010. I intend to:
Be present in the moment more. I spend most of my life doing rather than being and thinking about what needs to be done next rather than in the moment.
Give myself some slack. I have high (and unrealistic) expectations for myself and what I can accomplish. When I don't achieve my goals I feel like a failure. I am going to break this pattern and learn to love and accept myself.
Live healthier. I could write a blue streak about this failure of mine. Instead I will say that working on my feeling like a failure and worthless will be a major part of the plan. The rest will be organization, healthy food choices, the Wii, walking and writing in a journal daily.
Meditate every day. I need the quiet space in my head to think clearly.
Take my meds and check my sugars daily. No gasps from the coffee girls.
I hesitate to write this one because I've said it so many times and haven't succeeded. Yet I am in a believer in intentions so I'd like a less stressful more creative and fun job. Learning how to deal with work stress and still maintain a healthy lifestyle will be a huge challenge.
I am determined to succeed. Let the new year begin!
