A fellow belly dancer, Gina, recently issued an interesting 100 day challenge. Why wait until the New Year to start on the list of goals and resolutions lurking around in the shadows of your mind? Why not do it now, during the last one hundred days of the year? The challenge doesn't start until September 23rd so there is still plenty of time to get that list together and it doesn't have to be anything even remotely related to belly dance. If you don't want to share your list on Gina's page, then post it on your own blog, FB page, on the refrigerator, or anywhere that works for you, just as long as you make yourself accountable for it.
Here's my list, in no particular order:
1. Clean out closet and revitalize stale, boring wardrobe.
2. Lose weight.
3. Finish up a few crochet projects.
4. Yoga. Everyday.
-I just bought Rodney Yee's "Yoga: The Poetry of the Body" and downloaded "Yoga
With Weights" on the e-reader to keep things fresh and interesting.
5. Start a vegetable garden.
6. Reduce the "To Read" pile of 20+ books down to zero.
-This is mainly so that I can justify buying more books.
7. Transplant rose bushes.
8. Organize notes from Flamenco class.
-Right now they're in 3 different places: a notebook, on the sticky note app of my
phone, and on the e-reader.
9. Take "Teaching Yoga to Kids" class.
10. Write. Everyday.
-It doesn't have to be good, it just has to be done.
11. Organize yarn stash into just one room.
-Only the bathrooms and kitchen are currently yarn free.
12. Treat myself to a super awesome spa day.
I deliberately kept my list simple. My summer hibernation is barely at an end and my calender is already overflowing with bead related deadlines, workshops, classes, recitals, rehearsals, and volunteering, along with the usual never ending Mommy-Do list.
Some really exciting things are happening in my life and I'll be blogging about a few of them over the next few days.
