Changes for the New Year

As we approach the end of the year 2009, I wanted to reflect on my goals for the upcoming year.  I really feel the need to accomplish something.  In previous years, it was completing my education and I have done that.  I earned my Masters in 2008. So now I have to really take a look at me, something I don't like to do, and fix what is wrong, what I don't like.  To me that is the hardest thing to do.  Why?  I have no idea.  I just feel lazy and yet I was never like that.  I don't want to just exist.  I want to make an impression in this world before its my time to go. So, I pondered and reasoned until I came up with the following list:

1. Lose weight for real this time!  Meaning change my diet.  I am going to go vegetarian.  I have friends that do this and have such energy and vibrancy.  I want some of that!

2. Exercise 3 times a week. No if ands or buts!  I need to do this for me. One hour with 15 minutes spent on ab work!

3. Join a good church and become active like singing in the choir.  I remember singing when I was younger so I think I need to start back up.

4. Explore and take pictures.  I love to scrapbook but its hard when you don't have any pictures.  I need to get out and take some.  Explore the world around me.  Why not?  I haven't gotten out and enjoyed life and this new year marks my start.

I am sure I'll come up with more but for now this is a great start!
