Let's do this!

Okay, so one of my New Year's Resolutions is to Blog weekly. And, I'm already beyond that deadline as it's now 10 days into 2016. But - better late than never, right?  I rationalize it like this - my son was home from college for that first week of 2016, so it was still vacation. And NOW - the New Year has started for me. Which brings me to my resolutions.

I'm sharing them here because, as studies tell me, I'm more likely to stick to resolutions if I share them with others. So Here are my 2016 Resolutions.

1. Create a Blog post at least once a week. I'm not really sure what I'll blog about, but I'm going to try!  Probably about the author signings I'll be at this year (I'm already doing 5!) Maybe it'll be about a book I'm writing. Maybe a meal I'm cooking. Or a tool or product that I can't live without. My daughter will be looking at colleges...my son is in college... What would you like to see me blog about? Comment below or send me an email! 😄
2. Write at least 2,000 words a day on any WIP (work in progress). I usually write at least 1,000, and some days I'll knock out 5,000 - but there are days I barely get 500 on the page. 
3. Walk at least 10,000 steps a day. I have a Fitbit - do you? Friend me! Keep me honest!  You can find me with this email: ditchingthedream@gmail.com
4. Start a gratitude journal. I usually try and think of a few things every night, but I think writing them down would be better...then I can look back remember.
5. Be better organized. My desk is a mess. My stack of "to be filed" is ever growing. The top of my dresser is the same. My files in my computer could use a good cleaning out and purging (Apple keeps telling me that my Cloud is almost at capacity - surely I don't need all those things in the "cloud" and my laptop's hard drive is also in the same boat.)

What are yours?

​Good luck to everyone & have a WONDERFUL 2016!!!
