ACTIONS SPEAK * six things in 12 weeks

When I started this blog I set a theme for 2010 of “actions speak louder than words” and I wanted to use blogging to help me accomplish some of my goals and “to do’s”. I’m a list maker but yet getting things accomplished and off my list is a challenge. I’m gonna try blogging about a few and see if it helps with progress. I recently started a new nutrition and fitness journal, fitbook, which I love and I am the creative director for. The journal has a 12 week time period and this seemed like a good time frame to get six things off my to do list. I’m giving myself two weeks for each to do/goal. The theory and research behind writing things down is that your 75% more likely to achieve your goals so I’m banking on that this will work for blogging too. I plan to include some before and after shots and maybe even a vlog here and there to show insight on the challenges and show progress. 78 days to get it done.

start date =  08.16.10
end date =  11.01.10

Here is the list

1. fitbook & fitbook junior [health]
2. refresh Merlina Design logo [business]
3. clear clutter from office [business]
4. read book [personal improvement]
5. side yard clean up [home]
6. screen door. fix or get it fixed [home]

I picked a variety of categories. Some that are at the top of my list and some not so serious.

I’m excited and a little nervous as I’m putting myself out there. I’m thinking feedback and possible criticism [hopefully constructive] will be a motivating factor for the process. My hope is that I make progress, provide some insight and basically show some fun before and after shots that might inspire.
