Taking stock…
I read an article today that challenged the reader to take stock of this past year and identify things that could have gone differently and work on those items rather than setting resolutions that won’t last the week. So this is what I’ve decided to do. I’ve decided to identify those items that I did right:
- move closer to my friends
- excel at my job
- learn more about wine
- focus on getting my life back in order
- work on my repairing and strengthening my relationship with my parents
I can say, that without a shadow of a doubt, a check can be placed next to the items above. Now for the soul-searching things that could have gone a bit differently:
- get healthy – I need to work on this to make sure that I not only make sure that I’m healthy, but that I begin making healthy conscious descisions about what I eat and how I exercise
- work on a personal relationship – at the beginning of the year, I joined match.com to meet men. I met a few, but the reality is that I’m tired of meeting men who say that they know what they want, but really don’t. this coming year, I would like to work on meeting quality men and establishing a connection with one.
And in the spirit of following the article’s advise, I’m going to make an effort to work on those areas that I feel that I fell short in this past year. I know that it won’t be easy, but as long as there’s wine to taste, I should be able to get through this next year to become a healthier and stronger woman.
Today’s inspiration: 2004 Mandolin Pinot Noir! it’s good ;P
