Well, it’s 2013 and I still haven’t fucking done anything about writing. So, here I am, writing.<\/p>\n
As usual, I have had a tumultuous first few days of New Years- trying to figure out how not to sleepwalk through the year ahead. I’m a big list maker, and a shockingly bad procrastinator. I think about what I want to do WAY more that actually doing it, and while it’s good to be a dreamer- I don’t want to be a 50 year old thinking ‘what if’…ya know?<\/p>\n
This year is all about shaking it up. 2011 and 2012 basically could have been the same year, except for some interesting parts in 2012…but that’s another story. I’m wanting to shake things up and change the course of our life, not in a crazy way- but just enough to make a difference. I want to push the boundaries of what we thought we were doing- make opportunities and stop being such a fatalist. I’ve been waiting for something to happen, but I think it’s probably time for me to do that myself!<\/p>\n
I also want to continue down the path of wanting less. We’ve become pretty pared down in our consuming- and I want to\u00a0move that to the next level. We’re still gonna spend money on travel, eating out etc, but I want to cut the small amount we spend on consumables even more. It’s been getting easier as we’ve gone along. I liken it to sugar- the less you eat it, the less you want it. Then, when you do have it- it just tastes way too sweet \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
So there you go – Challenge 2013- do more, want less, shake it up, always be mindful, present, deliberate and considered. Let’s try not to sleepwalk.<\/p>\n
