New Year, New Dreams

It's a new year, and that means it's that time of year for thinking about goals and how to reach them. My 2007 was driven mostly by reacting to life, and I'm ready for something different in 2008... I'm ready to make some things happen. I'm tired of just taking whatever life hands me and having to somehow find contentment in that. Somehow, I've finally figured out that if I want something to change about my life, it's up to me to make it happen.

Some people are innately driven, I guess, and they figured out a long time ago how to set a goal, define the steps needed to reach the goal, then tackle them one at a time. I'm not one of those people. Guess I was a slow learner that way. So, I hope 2008 is a year of change. Wait. Let me re-state that: 2008 WILL be a year of change for me. Stay tuned.

  2. Go Rebo! Actually, I'm right there with you in being a slow learner in making the change. And perhaps the whiny me still wants to say, why can't change just happen to me? But you have the right mentality. God bless.

  3. You go, girl! I'm joining Mary Hunt this year and making my goal to be less wasetful. Among other things, that means no more wasting time wishing things were different - either I accept the current reality or I take action for change.
