Well well well.
I will soon be revisiting some of my old posts. Last years resolutions being one of them. I am a bit sad I did not blog since last year's writing project. Admittedly the year went by faster then I could have ever expected. Needless to say of course there's a reason I'm writing. Who would ever guess that blogs are filled with the vague, subjectless rants and ramblings of those with too much on their mind.
I need to find a quote for the new year, at least the start of it. One that I can live by and apply to my current state of life.
A whole hour into new years I have a wonderful head ache and too many thoughts to even pretend to consider. BUT I am determined to sort this out and propel myself forwards as I know I can and continue to improve myself. More to follow. With that (and some NyQuil) I am off to bed to try and get a somewhat decent amount of sleep ... fingers and toes crossed.

All the way to 60 days!
Just something else I noticed lately - Facebook is awfully negative - I'm gonna write a positive post :)
Im also working the next 6 days in a row, I'll take that challenge!

Well well. Time for a legit post. So in wrapping up this process I definitely think that there is a bit more I can do. Re-read my posts for example. I know there a lot that helped me in them, and I mean I wrote it so the thoughts are in my head, but there are times when you can use positive reminders and I think that this blog will continue to serve as a great tool for that.
I can honestly say I don't now what I was truly expecting from this project. I know it was very ambitious and that I wasn't sure I'd even make it to half-way. But I did. And not only that I was actually seeing the change in myself I was trying for.
In talking about this the other day I was asked why I felt that this was something I needed to do. My attitude wasn't necessarily viewed as poor , even positive perhaps, and I knew that too when I started. I guess I knew that there was more that I could do. Also, I figured that while others might not see it, its how I do that's important. So changing my mindset vs saying the way I act is a key difference. Not particularly how I handle things or what I say or do, but how I think about it. Granted hat of course is connected with the rest and altogether it makes a great difference.
I know I have a day of writing ahead of me still, but I'm still not too sure what I want to do after that day. Honestly keeping writing is again forcing me to think about things and process them - and that's great. But writing just for the sake of writing (as I've done more than a couple times) isn't helping at all. I guess a good goal (key word right there!) would be to write a few times a week, and make at least a couple of them legitimately count. Even if its still reflecting on a quote that still opened my thoughts up a lot. I suppose one thing to do would be to look at quotes I've already done and see how my thoughts have changed about them or at least how I am applying them to my life.
In any case I can't even begins to say how happy and proud I am of myself and this project. I know theres still a lot more I can do to challenge myself and get my goals accomplished. When I started this project I didn't even have goals written out. It sure feels good :)

Tomorrow I will blog extra long.... kinda a "wrapping this up" type of post. If I had any more to post tonight but I'm pretty blank. :-\ Tomorrow will make up for it for reals.

Today..... I WORKED OUT.
I almost can't believe it myself! Other than that I pretty much wasted my day off, but you gotta just do that once and a while no? And 2AM is far to late to post for reals. Regardless, talk about feeling good ;) I got to talk a bit about this whole process to a close friend tonight as well. Its simply reassuring and feels good too. One day on and then another day off ;) Not to bad!

Well today was full! Quite sleepy all day but work went smoothly and had dinner at home with the family and some out of town relatives. All in all I would say that my mentality for this situation is incredibly improved over where I've started. Tomorrow I will write considerably more, I need to figure out my motivation for this after a long days work still!
