Thinking

Happy 2012 to everyone in the blog world.
I hope that it finds you healthy, happy and safe.

As always, the new year tends to find a lot of goals, resolutions and reflections.
I am not one who usually does any of those.
I am not sure if I want to do them this year.
I am not sure if I don't want to do them this year.
I am in a state of flux.
So, I'll just type some thoughts from the gray matter in my head.

Goals
MBB and I have a 10 year plan financially that we worked out earlier in 2011.
We have the foundation for something we both want and I don't see a need to mess with it just because we passed GO, so to speak.
I would like to get back into the fitness arena a bit more in 2012.
Yeah I have a kinda sorta goal!
Yes, I know that it is specific enough, quantifiable, measurable, etc.
Baby steps people!

Resolutions
I despise New Year Resolutions.
To me, these are just things that become "How many days before you broke it?". . .
Just setting up everyone up for failure.
I tend to do changes in the summer when there is no pressure of day counting.
Nope, not going to do a resolution!

Reflection
I have to admit that 2011 was a very rough year for me - well a certain part of it anyway.
To be honest, there were days when I wasn't sure if the life I woke up with was the same as the one that I would finish up the day with. . .And I don't mean that in a good way.
I had "growth opportunities" both personal and professional that I was not confident that I could handle.

To be honest, I am so praying, wishing, hoping - whatever I have to do - that 2012 is better as this "certain part" was at the latter part of 2011 and I DO NOT want it seeping over into 2012.

Not to completely be one sided on 2011, I am breathing, walking, earning a paycheck and have MBB. And yes, those are big items in the positive side that tilts the balance very much to that side.

It would be nice, however, to be told that I am a big item on someone else's positive side every once in awhile. Should that be in my goal section?

Namaste.
