January Goals: Recap

I have been really horrible about posting lately, yet in my defense, my house is getting its floors redone so I have not been in my normal surroundings since Tuesday. You know how that is.

Anyhoo, I have some exciting news about the month of January...

Remember what I wanted to accomplish?

January was my most successful month to date. 

The red goals are what I did not do at all, but the lighter color are the goals that I have made considerable progress with and I did not just want to count them out. So I counted them for half! 

Maybe it's because I am so gung ho about New Year's resolutions, starting fresh, all that jazz, or maybe I just decided to get things done. Either way, it feels good to really accomplish a lot! 

I don't know what the purpose of this blog really is anymore. I feel kind of vain just talking about my life, but I guess that does make sense because I just want my friends and family to know what I'm doing with this year. But if there is anything I hope you take away from my novice little Mind the Gap blog is that we all talk a big game about "living our dreams" but it is so rewarding when you actually start seeing your progress. Living one small step at a time, one goal crossed off a list at a time, one dream at a time.  Or maybe you aren't a list maker like me; maybe you have always had that one thing in the back of your mind that you want to do. Somewhere in your mind or your soul or your heart or your gut you have always wanted to do something or be someone. 

Just do it. No Excuses. Carpe Diem. 

But really, just do it.
