I'm not usually one to make New Year resolutions but I'm feeling differently this year. There are some things that I need to be made accountable for. Things that I want to accomplish. Things that I should be doing that I feel guilty for not doing. You catch my drift? There is a very good chance that I will fail to a certain extent, but at least by writing it down I will have a guideline and a reminder to look back on.
one. Take a picture a day.
In high school I was the designated picture-taker. To the point that I got made fun of. I've always been pretty good about documenting randomness, but I have to say that as life has gotten busier (ie. a husband and 2 kids), I tend to slack in that department. This is one of those guilt things because I wish I was capturing all of those little moments with the girls that will be fun to look back on 10 years from now when this phase of life is long gone. I have no excuses. I have a DSLR and an iPhone. This is just a kick in the butt to use them more often!
two. Step out of my comfort zone more often.
This covers a variety of items in my life. This blog for starters. I created it back in the summer and have hardly written on it. I blame lack of confidence. My invitation business is another one. I have remained pretty low profile and need to step out and try to capture more of an audience. I would also like to try my hand at an Etsy shop. I have some ideas and I just need to go for it. Easier said than done.
three. GET ORGANIZED.
I'm not sure where my life went wrong here. I have always been a neat freak, but somewhere between moving into this house a few years ago and having another baby, I lost my rhythm. My laundry room/craft room is a complete disaster and I don't even use my office any more because it is in total disarray. There are other areas that I want to work on too, but those are the ones that need it the most. Hoping to have this somewhat under control in the next few months.
That's it. In a nutshell I just want to be a bit more on top of things and allow myself to be present instead of having a constant nagging feeling about the stuff that I want to be doing but am not. A clear mind is a productive mind.
Cheers to a successful 2014!!!
