Goal #5

My final goal for 2011 -  project 365. Take one picture everyday (or more...but at least one)

I hope this will help me get to know my camera better, help me remember special moments and make me less self concious about taking photographs in public! I figure they'll be days this is really hard, days when I don't feel like taking a picture - or can't find anything to photograph. I've created a new 'set' on my Flickr (here) and I'll upload all my pictures there, as well as doing the occasional update on here too. I

And that's it! 5 goals for 2011 (goal #1; goal #2; goal #3; goal #4) and a (small) to-do list! I will post on here as to how I'm getting along throughout the year!

Goal #4

Be proud of who I am. Stand up and shout out loud what I believe in (well, maybe not shout ha!) Do not be afraid to say what I think - even if it isn't the same as everyone else. Fitting in isn't all it's made out to be! Dare to be different. Follow my heart and do what pleases me... not what makes someone else happy.

Final goal will be posted tomorrow!

{goal 1: goal 2: goal 3}

Goal #3

I want to sort my eating habits out once and for all. After a lifetime of disordered eating and eating disorders (and yes, there is a difference!!), I struggle to eat healthily. If I restrict what I eat in any way - even if that's by cutting out junk food) I end up eating nothing at all. But if I don't restrict what  I eat, I eat anything and everything (think lots of junk!!) I want to get to a point where I eat healthy foods 90% of the time, but equally be able to have some 'treats' occasionally without going crazy! Any tips would be gratefully received! Right now I'm an all or nothing girl - and I'd like to be somewhere in between.

Goal #4 coming tomorrow.

If you missed them, check out Goal #1 and Goal #2

Goal #2

Challenge myself every day, every week, every month. Try something new...step out of my comfort zone...

Goal #3 coming tomorrow! (Goal #1 here)

Goal #1

Easy one to start off with. I already try and do this every day anyway. Creating is my therapy - it's fun and makes me feel good. It doesn't have to take much time, the idea isn't to do a whole painting every day, just find 5 minutes or half an hour to do something.... take a photo, write a poem, knit a few rows, paint a little, sew...anything!

I'll be back tomorrow with goal #2! Are you setting goals for the year?? Leave me a comment to tell me yours or link to your blog!

p.s - Living Life Your Way will resume next Monday. I've looking for more people to be featured. If you're interested or want to nominate someone email me!

One Word.
Encapsulate the year 2010 in one word. Explain why you’re choosing that word. Now, imagine it’s one year from today, what would you like the word to be that captures 2011 for you?

Goddess Workbook 2011

 

I was excited this morning to see that Goddess Leonie has released her workbook for 2011. I LOVED this years one, and found it incredibly helpful in manifesting the year I wanted. So much has changed for me this year, and I'm sure in part it's thanks to the guidenace in the workbook - actually making me stop and THINK about what I wanted to achieve this year.

I've already bought and downloaded my copy of the 2011 workbook. Here's some of what you get:

I can't recommend Goddess Leonie's workbook enough - if you want one for yourself, go here
