Thanks for reading John!

If journaling doesn’t work for you that’s absolutely fine. From what I gather it’s just what feels comfortable and gets you into the mood. Try something, experiment and see if it helps.

I love the fact that you make time to comment on various other blogs. I haven’t worked this into a routine just yet but it’s a handy thing to do to make sure you’re always keeping your finger on the pulse otherwise we can tend to stray and forget to get involved.

I have the same goal as you. Blog once a week. There are times where I don’t but these are in general few and far between. The important thing is if you do forget to get right back on it!

I’m no different. Although, I can look back on each year and see that I’ve progressed in at least one area. This year was mostly career and skills development.

I don’t much like journaling but I am committing to daily routines. Here’s what I’m working on this year:

1. Wake Up between 5-6am each day. If I get up early enough, I might be able to knock out this whole list before work.
2. Keep a Food Diary – I have about 70 pounds to lose to get to a healthy weight.
3. Exercise 30 min – I have equipment in my house and plenty of sidewalk. There’s really no excuse for me to not get this done.
4. Practice Sitting Meditation – I’m starting with about 15 min a day.
5. Comment – ‘Making the hang’ with other professionals. Finding articles and blogs online and joining the conversation.
6. Blog 30 min – My content goal is at least one post per week. 30 minutes a day should get me there with room to spare.

I’ll make a point to check back on this post at some future date. See how well I’ve ‘won’ this year. 🙂
