I Did It!

Yahoo! I did it! Yipee!

I completed February's Nablopomo by posting to my blog everyday in February. I have learned so much and gotten way more from this experience than I had anticipated. I have learned things that I want to do in my blog that I've started like the journal questions, and I learned things I would do differently like - blogging everyday doesn't leave any room for a break. So....

I am committed to blogging 4-5 days a week, giving myself a break, but maintaining some consistency. I hope this will continue to work for readers.

And, I want your feedback on the journal questions. I have had a couple of people email me saying they love the new addition. That kind of feedback is very helpful. More feedback is welcomed. I would like to know if you find the journal questions helpful? Do you like them? Not like them? Why? Is there anything you would change about them? Any ideas of how to make them better or more helpful? more inspiring? more empowering?

Thanks for being a part of Re-minderz!

NaBloPoMo

In November I wrote a post entitle "A Pie With 8 Pieces." In that post I said that it is important to know which piece of the pie needs your attention, or in other words, which of the 8 aspects of your life needs the most attention. Last week in "Two in One," one of the two re-minderz was how helpful it can be to talk something over, out loud with a good listener. Just the other day I was talking over my life with a friend, incidentally the same friend I mentioned last week, and I had another important awareness. Again, I am so grateful for friends!

Currently the piece of the pie needing my attention is the career piece. Now the interesting thing is this was a little tricky for me to see since I also have more work for the month of February than I have had in 3 years! Nonetheless, I have not been blogging like I want to, and that is an important piece of this pie for me.

While beginning to give attention to this, I ran across NaBloPoMo. My daughter had participate in NaNoWriMo, in November - isn't that interesting timing, and so I was interested. For NaBloPoMo, authors can sign up to make a commitment to posting to their blog everyday. I did it. I signed up! That is one way to hold myself accountable, but then I pondered whether or not to say something to you....and here I am sending this out. Now that really feels like accountability.

So, I'll be here everyday in February. I invite you to stop by and say hello. I always enjoy your comments, and I just found a way to make it easier. You no longer have to become a member to comment. Simply click on the word comment below, and type away!

What area of your life needs attention today? What one thing could you do to make a difference for yourself in that area? What are you committed to? How does accountability work for you?
