New Year Resolutions - An Added Incentive
Jurgen Wolff's January 2010 Brainstorm E-Bulletin (http://jurgenwolff.com/ / www.timetowrite.blogs.com/) noted that there are a few strategies that have been proven to be effective when trying to lose a few pounds i.e. Keep the tempting bad foods out of the house and Jot down everything you eat! However, what he noted which really got me motivated was: Being creative requires energy and being overweight can sap it. Now, where did I put my trainers.....

I want to share with you this....
As we enter 2010, I want to wish you the very best of everything:
Confidence to pursue your best ideas.
Creativity to take you to new and exciting places in your work.
Determination to follow through on your goals.
Resources to support you as you go for it.
Patience to let things evolve as they need to.
Wisdom to see opportunities for what they are and let go of unhelpful habits.
Humour to deal with those around you and to see the funny side of your challenges.
Peace in the knowledge that you are in the right place and doing the right things.

New Year Resolutions
Last year I used being pregnant as an excuse. This year it was/is having a baby. I don’t feel I have really moved forward that much with regards to my writing in the last year. I feel disappointed that my 2009 Christmas present - the Writers and Artists Yearbook 2009 – never moved from its place on the shelf this year!!
My goals for 2009 were:
1. To complete (at least) one novel.
2. To enter one competition a month of any format.
3. To continue to write both blogs at least once a week.
This year I have added:
4. To continue to devour Writing Magazine, Writing News and MsLexia.
5. To try and write something or do something to move towards my writing goals every day.
6. To re-asses in 3 / 6 / 12 months time!
Other Resolutions are:
To remember that time is precious and to say No to things unless I really want to say Yes.
I will try to remain Positive at all times about all people and all situations!
I will aim to reach my pre-pregnancy weight within 3 months via diet and exercise.
I will save some money every week.
Wish me luck - Happy New Year!!
