Tis the season for all things Christmas. We took at least 50 pictures of our daughter this weekend "decorating" the tree for our Christmas card. I bet 50% of the population was doing the same thing this weekend.
Also, looking ahead, I am anticipating New Year's. Now, as I have mentioned, I am very into self reform and New Year's is big for me. Some years I have done days long exercises of answering questions about goals of years past and future. But this year may be different. I feel a change in myself. And I recently read a good post from a blog that I felt captured my thoughts. (If you have time- here is the link: zenhabits.net/achieving/ ). The author of the post says: "Goals take credit for our accomplishments, like a bad boss." And once written out (in clear block letters with color coded tabs, etc) then they just sit there and mock you. It's not like we won't accomplish anything if we don't have goals, right? And instead of being excited by taking action, I find having all my goals written out- robs me of that joy. So does it count if my goal this year is to get in the habit of not having goals?
