There is No Way...

There is no way I can anticipate all the good things that will happen today ~ Brian Narelle

I hope you had a good Monday.  This is the first day of the first full week of the year.  I have to say, my new year is going just fine.  And I love this quote, because there is no way one can anticipate all the good things that will happen from day to day.

I hope that you're continuing in your dream journey, just like I am.  Hopefully, unlike myself, you reached your goals for 2011 and are moving on to other things.  If you are like me and didn't meet a goal or dream you set for yourself in 2011, I hope that you haven't beat yourself up too much and have looked at your dream again.  I didn't meet my goal of finishing my book last year, but I am determined to do it this year.

I can't help but to share once again that getting on my New Year's resolution wasn't something that I started last Sunday. It's taken me all week to work my way into it.  On Saturday, I shared that I had been awake at my goal time for three days in a row.  I am happy to report, that I continued that wake up time yesterday and today.  So to reach my goal of finishing the first draft of A Place to Call Their Own by August 30th (not 31st, and I am sticking by that), I have started towards my goal of getting up early in the morning to work on the novel during the week.

Hang in there and no matter how much life throws at you, just remember that there is no way you can anticipate all the good things that will happen when you wake up each day.  Just make sure your vision is clear and your goals set so that your routines and boundaries will be in place when you're ready to pick up your dream journey where you left off.

I'd love to hear how your New Year is going, please share your comments with me...
