Lose weight
Run a mile
Take a yoga class, and keep going if I like it
Sell a photograph
Got to bed early, wake up early.
Save money
Pay off debt
Throw a party at my house
Read more books, watch less t.v.
Rise above gossiping
Sew an article of clothing
Quit smoking
Live by the ocean
Go rock climbing and white water rafting
Grow my hair long and not cut it all off again
Volunteer regularly
Only eat out twice a week, cook at home more
Send Christmas cards every year

The Beginning . . .
Here's my plan. I have a lot of big changes that I need to make in my life. Changes that are going to take a lot of hard work over a long period of time. I have tried over and over and over again. But each time, I find myself staring failure in the face. Some of these things are 10 years overdo, 10 years! That makes me feel old, and I am not old. I am 28 years old, and I have been avoiding things for a long time. The older I get, the harder this keeps getting. I am no fool people, I know that it is going to keep getting worse. I am going to keep feeling like I am stuck, imagining the life that I want, that I daydream about.
After reading about Mighty Girl's Mighty Life List, I realized several things. One, it was incredibly difficult for me to make that list. I kept excluding things because I thought they were too far out of reach. I couldn't dream big enough . . .wow, that's scary to type. Second, even the miniscule list I could manage, scared me to death. I want that to change in 2010. It is going to take me much longer than a year, but that is the point, I guess. I want to learn a new way to think, live, and experience my life. I want to be more compassionate, responsible, adventurous, loving, loved, respectful, challenging, and inspired.
So, in the posts to come, I am going to start compiling my list. It will probably be small at first, but I hope that it will grow. Also, my goal is to do one thing everyday that contributes to changing me for the better. So if nothing else, I can right about that.
Today, I started a blog that I hope will keep me accountable to a goal, or a series of goals.
