I want to write every day.

I have a massive lists of things I want to accomplish to improve my life. I followed Gretchen’s lead and looked for 12 themes to help organize my list. I am also keeping track of my happiness project on my blog –

Good luck to all of you!

I was thinking about my resolutions last night. Actually, I’ve been thinking about the for the last couple of weeks.
These are just a few (yes, there’s a lot):
1. exercise
2. eating healthier
3. thinking positive
4. marathon #2 (I’ve only got three months to train; is it even possible?)

Last nite my family and I wrote out, on strips of paper things that we want/intend to let go of in the the coming year (2011) and then burned them. Mine were:
*Fear
*Anger
*25 lbs.
then we wrote out what we intend to accomplish in the coming year (2011). I signed up for the Big Picture Classes course – One Little Word with Ali Edwards and my word for the year is HAPPYNESS ( I’m spelling it this way cause it makes me happy).
HAPPYNESS in:
*My work life
*Home life
*Relationships
*Finances
*Vitality
*Creativity
*MySelf
I also intend to yell less, show love more and surrender my opinion about all the little unimportant things that don’t really matter in the Big Picture of my life.

Almost through the first day of the year! Just found the Happiness Challenge. I intend to take care of myself so I can enjoy better quality of life with my family and loved ones. A couple of things I want to do this year…
*My husband & I will train to walk our first 10k late February
*We will take our summer vacation at the beach
*We will travel to Orlando in December. I love Christmas!

I am reading “The Happiness Project” now and am excited to join the challenge. I would find it helpful to have a calendar or template to record my goals and check them off like Gretchen does in her book. I look forward to the weekly encouragement emails and reading about other’s successes.

My intentions for 2011 are to live mindfully and to be open to joy.
I have registered for a Mindful Eating retreat in February. Also my husband and I decided to share 5 things each evening for which we are grateful.

I want to have more motivation and less fear! I want to think positively and realistically, to appreciate the small things (like the first taste of watermelon after a long winter), to think less unkind things about people, and to argue less.
I want to work harder at school and retain more (rather than getting a good grade and forgetting it all).
I want to follow the Happiness Project to the end!

In 2011 I want to rediscover the real me underneath the facade and within the corporate life that I live.
I designed my 12 month Happiness Project and pledge to follow it through!
