Learning patience...
I am not the most patient person. I often expect instant results and find myself disappointed when that doesn't happen. I know I'm not alone, but more and more I find it counter productive. It's part of the reason I have many half-assed ideas and half completed projects lying about the place. I have a hard time plugging away at something day after day - I want it done now. I know this is also made worse by my pursuit of perfection. I want instant, perfect results...and that is crazy. So it's more logical to keep the ideas in my head where they will remain perfect, if unrealized.
I'm working to change that. This is a year of change - or so I've deemed it. I've kept daily to do lists, but now I'm trying to plan much further into the future with weekly and monthly goals to keep me on the steady path and making sure that an idea that excited me one day won't slip my mind months down the line.
I figure it should work a little as I do so enjoy ticking things off a list.
On the health related note, I've been maintaining my food journal, have been exercising week and I'm proud to say I've broken a weight milestone - dropped down below into another 10 bracket (I'm not going to post the actual weight), but I'm now only less than 30 lbs away from my goal - so yay 9 lbs down!
Also working on getting my photography together - experimenting with a Wordpress site that should do the job nicely. Then I just need to reorganize my design work. That's right...getting things done.
That's all for now.
