One of my intentions of the year is to write more, to my peeps, and have more to say about life. I went through a phase of wanting to change several things about this blog, including the name, but when it all comes down to it, I really just want to give you words to live by. I want to make you laugh, cry, and feel like someone else gets what you're going through. Changing everything was all about procrastinating, which I have damn near perfected.
I have learned to procrastinate like it's my JOB.

Does this ring a bell with anyone else or am I the only one???
My goal for this blog is to find and connect to more readers this year. I know that means streeeeeeetching my writing consistency and creativity. Most of the time, I sit and struggle with what to write, thinking that I've already said what I came here to say. I will literally get through an entire post and delete it, thinking WHO IS GOING TO CARE ABOUT THAT?
Well that time is done. Of course I'll still go over some of the same topics, but change is in the air.
I even made a fancy little manifesto to drive the point home.
Here are some simple things we can do every single day to make sure we're living our best lives. Obviously some of these are easier than others, and everyone's list will look different. This baby is just mine.
After my month of gratitude back in November, I really learned that I'm not all sunshine and butterflies inside. Shocking, right? Stop laughing.
But seriously, I will be the first to admit that I should be dressed a in full Darth Vader outfit some days. Other days it's sunshine and butterflies. The practice of gratitude (and it is a practice) will simply improve your chances of sunshine on any given day.
More sunshine - even in Michigan - and less Vader. Check.
More time management - it's number 1 for a reason - will prevent me from uttering things like 'I don't have time.' I have the time. I just choose to use it watching Scandal, or whatever else is on any given night.
Senior. Executive. Procrastinator.
This year is about the beginning of change. I started on this journey last May, but this is the year I will intentionally change to get what I want.
And these are my words to live by....
Amen sister! You always seem to be here when I need you. Here's to 2016!
