365 – One Year
“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” – Anne Frank
I turned 50 this year – thankfully!
As happy as I am about that it was cause for me to step back and think about where I am and that brings me to this posting. I have been blessed with more than 18, 250 Everydays. And I have used them well on everything and everybody except myself. For myself I have allowed bad habits, bad choices (or even worse no choices), and general malaise to drive my physical, mental and emotional state.
So the question becomes….how do I change all this to get where I thought I would be (or where I know I want to be) from here.
The best answer I can come to is to start the One Year plan… I know I can do anything for a year. (I managed to commute between Chicago and Bloomington for 3 1/2!) For a year I will do it differently. I will look at it differently, I will make different decisions, I will do what I haven’t done for these many years….and see what happens. If I don’t like where I am at on December 14, 2012 — I’ll try something else. But, I am guessing that, if I stay true to what I am starting, I will begin the next 50 years in a much better place.
Hope you join in on my journey. Feel free to post about your “One Year” or just follow my observations, trials and errors! Here’s to a great adventure!
