Here it is, last day of Winter break and I have accomplished none of the projects I have been dreaming about doing – I got one of them set up for someone else to do during break. It still sits out waiting for me to make use of it.
My paints have been calling me.... no answer... "Line is Busy"
I was able to put over 2 hours into making and decorating a cake for someone – but no time to do the artwork I want to do for my dreams.
My DH has been begging me to “Do Something”. He believes in me. He has been infinitely patient with my plans to make and sell all kinds of things I dream of doing. But finances are increasingly tight and my ability to focus and accomplish continues to allude me.
I’m going to take the advice of the Rabbi Friedman video clip I saw yesterday and not waste time, and derail myself further, by asking WHY I am not doing what is so clear in my mind that I want to do, but instead work on the question of WHAT I am going to do about it.
In a recent posting, Darren Hardy spelled out what I need to do about it. He stated: “It doesn’t matter your goal and it doesn’t matter your anchor, the formula is the same.
Take your goal and anchor it with something tangible. Track it and display your tracking publicly.”
I am very determined and dedicated to keep my commitments to others and I am careful of what commitments I agree to – whether it is to my employer, to my kids, to people I bake bread and desserts for, etc.
So, here is my commitment to YOU, my DH, my Uncle S, and myself. “Made-a-Move Mondays” - My commitment to be SNM – Stuck-No-More!!! My commitment (bli neder) to post on every Monday (IYH) something, anything, I created in the past week. – It could be one of my crafting projects, a writing, a prototype …. Something tangible – not just more ideas to add to my wish list. Not just progress for setting things up for future projects – but actual things I completed.
I welcome you to join me in being SNM. Share with me how you are making a move to be “stuck-no-more” – what are you committing yourself to accomplish? What progress did you make on that commitment this week?
Wishing all a good, happy, healthy and successful 2012!!
Lets grow and blossom together!
