Looking Back at 2010 and Forward to 2011

Monitor link

2010 was a year of great significance and growth. I lost and gained friendships, reacquainted familial relationships, broke toxic emotional ties, moved, and gained people in my life who allow me to look at myself, appreciate myself and learn.

Through every negative experience I learned something from it and walked away a little wiser.

I am not sure what 2011 will bring but I am excited and hopeful.

I am looking forward to quitting my part-time, starting school part-time and getting back into dating in 2011.  Since the toxic ties have been broken I feel ready to move forward. I have a blind date lined up in the next 3 weeks I will definitely write  it and let you guys know how that turn out. I am crazy nervous and excited all at the same time.

I am also considering exploring alternative dating options. My three single girlfriends have all tried online and speed dating. I’ll wait and see if I can convince them to hold my hand through the process and write which ones they like best and their experience in a whole. 

In order to help make 2011 a success I have made resolutions and I am trying new tips in hopes of keeping them.

Have you made your Resolutions for 2011? Do you usually keep your resolutions when you make them?

Every year I make a plan but attempt to keep them in a half assed kind of way. This year I will be creating a plan to help me make my resolutions come true. Give it a try!

Create a Plan...for example instead of saying I want to be healthier. State how you would achieve that goal. Create healthy meal plans; organize a walking group at work so you and coworkers can take 30 walks at work. Write it down. For some reason writing things down make things more realistic and achievable.

Set Timelines...You don't know if you’re not on track if you don't set dates

Print it and Post it....If you don’t see it you might forget it. Give yourself friendly reminders to keep you on track

My Resolutions for 2011.

Go back to school (part-time). I have decided to get my professional certification in Public Sector Management. Printed out Study plan checklist so I know what requirements I need to get this certification. Set a time line of September 2011 to enrol.

Quit Part-time- The whole reason of renting out my house and moving in basement was to quit my part-time why am I still holding down two jobs 6 months later. Will use funds to get some home renovations underway

Deadline summer 2011

Be Healthier... I am eating healthier through portion control. Trying to find Work Life Balance. Promising myself a vacation in 2011. (No time line set based on my friends, my wallet and work flexibility)

It’s a little late but I wish you all the best for 2011 and I thank you for following me. Mwaaah
