accomplish our goals for 2013.

I am still spending some time thinking about all that I wish I had accompished in days, weeks, months or even years past. I however realized today that if my children wanted to quit just because they had not accomplished a task I would encourage them. The past does not matter. I would tell them to keep at it.

So I am telling myself that I want to accomplish it and I can continue working on it even if I have not done it already.

Isn't it great that we still get more chances.

Absolutely! We never fail here.

I have been thinking a lot about to do lists and I think they are a great tool but not a great motivator. I too often get distracted with other things, often necessary, that were not on the list but I had to get done... so whether it is today, last week, or last year, an accomplishment list seems more appropriate. What I have learned, skills I've built, tasks I have completed. You have done a lot! I have been friends with you for years and you have tried different things, some successful and some not so much. The challenges you tried, riding a bike, doing crunches, All those healthy lunches you packed to get through classes! You are amazing. You just need to find the things that "click" with you to let you know what you have done. Sticking with this is big too. Still here and still making steps forwards.
