Happy New Year!

Of course, if you're Chinese, I'm a little early! :-D

What a marvellous opportunity for new beginnings!

I'm not into resolutions - they're too easy to break. Instead, I've decided to work out my top 10 goals for the year, and work on achieving them. More motivation, I'm thinking.

  1. Build my blog (this one, of course)
  2. Get rid of my clutter (everything that isn't functional or beautiful must go!)
  3. Get Erica sorted out and set up (well, as much as possible. She'll have to take responsibility for her own life too!)
  4. Develop gratitude.
  5. Slim down to 59kg/130lb
  6. Sort out my wardrobe (I really need a functional, coordinated wardrobe, and with my new, svelte self... heheheheh)
  7. Learn to speak Spanish
  8. Get my PPL
  9. Begin my travels to 127 countries
  10. Publish a novel
Achievable, yes. Easy? No. So, it's a challenge and I've always been good at rising to one.

So, what are your goals for the year? Post them here and we'll keep each other on track.

Here's to 2008!

  1. Hi ToniQ, tks for the link to the photo blog.

    Seems like we have some of the same goals this year. My big one is to get rid of the clutter, and all I can handle is one day at a time. Thats fine, cos after all, thats all we have. Doing the photo blog got me started with the pattern, now all I have to do is keep it up.

    Take a look at Health Wealth and Happiness. Start your own and join me. If we do this simple one together we can encourage each other and enrich our lives.

  2. Clutter can be described as one's own personal effects ;o) ask my daughter, she can verify that.!..
    However, our local council commented in their monthly newsletter that the residents [means me] have helped achieve the recycling target, and I contribute every single week!!!! New me!
    One goal notched up.
    Weight is one not open to discussion at this point. :-(
    Travel, mmm, sounds perfect. News about that later in the year.
