Things that I want to accomplish in 2011.
2010 wasn’t the best year I’ve ever had. It started slow, had a great middle and a terrible end. I did learn a few things about myself and life in general due to the end of 2011. I’m still learning about life and relationships and I am far from where I want and need to be. This is sort of a New Year’s Resolution list (24 days too late), but it is really just a few things I want to work on and hope to accomplish in 2011. Why are you seeing this? I want to ask you a favor. If you can offer words of support, encouragement, insight, or wisdom, I would welcome it. I know that most people can’t do things on their own. I believe I fall into the category of “most people”. So, here is my LIST!
1. Health - This one is on everyone’s list. Eat better, exercise, blah blah. You know how this one works.
2. Travel - It has been a passion of mine to travel more. I’m not sure if 2011 will be the year I get out of the country or not, but national travel is definitely on the agenda. So far this year I have trips planned to Chattanooga, Indianapolis, San Francisco, Louisville/Lexington, San Diego, Bloomington - IN, Shaker Village - KY, Orlando, Boston/Salem, and St. Augustine. If anyone wants a visit, I’d be happy to try to come see you!
3. Read more - This one is always a tough one for me. I love reading, but rarely make the time for it. I have picked up a lot of books on recommendation lately. Which leads to
4. Better time management - Having 2 jobs has made time management come to the forefront to make my life function normally. I’ve not had to manage my time over the past year. It was wake up, work, do whatever, sleep, lather, rinse, repeat. Finding time to hang out, go to the gym, work, etc. is proving to be a challenge. Oh yeah, sleep, I can’t forget to do that.
5. Learn the guitar - This is something I’ve been putting off for far too long. I am looking to buy as soon as I find a good deal. If anyone wants to donate a guitar to the cause, I would accept that as well.
6. Be a better friend - I think I’m a pretty good friend, but there is ALWAYS room for improvement. I want to support my friends more than I have lately. Sorry about that.
7. Be in a band - This actually may be happening, stay tuned.
8. Go on a date - Yeah, sounds easy, doesn’t it. Well, I’m still working on this one.
So yeah, there are probably other things that will pop up from time, but this is what I could think right now.
