So I feel like my "One Life" has turned into about 5 lives that I don't have time for lately. One part of my 5 lives includes a new job that I'm super excited about! I'm still not completely sure what I am going to be doing, but whatever it is, I have a good feeling I'm going to like it. And it's got a much more promising future than my current 3 jobs. Basically it's a REAL job (no offense to my current employers) and I'm kinda terrified. I know I can do it, and I know I can do well at it, just slightly intimidating to go from a job where I know every in and out of what I'm supposed to be doing to something completely new. I think I am at a good point to be taking on something new though. I'm ready to be challenged and to prove that I am way smarter and more talented than I give myself credit for.
So, speaking of new challenges and all that, my friend just started a project/blog called the Day Zero Project. You can see her blog here http://jennik101things.blogspot.com/ and her Day Zero List here http://dayzeroproject.com/user/kushionjen (hope she doesn't care that I'm sharing this with the world). Maybe you've heard of it before but I never have and I'm really intrigued. I like that it's a very well rounded set of goals. Like she said, it's goals that force her to push herself a little (or a lot) but are attainable. . .and some of em are just downright fun! Once I get a little more settled into a new routine and have time to think, I plan on making my own 101 things list and I think you should consider it too! I love her first post where she talks about being so busy with kids, work, life, etc that she worries about forgetting about herself. I think that's all too common with people (even for those of us without children) to get wrapped up in everything going on that we forget about ourselves. We can all be much better parents, friends, spouses, employees than we are now if we just keep working on ourselves and growing. Plus, I'm kinda obsessed with sticky notes and "to do" lists and this is like one great big post-it of things to do in the next 1001 days!
Since I'm advertising other people's blogs you should check this one out too. . . http://wgvuengage.blogspot.com/ It has nothing to do with anything I just talked about but I'm one of the writers and I like to self promote :)
