Today is January 1, 2011.
As with all “new year” beginnings, I always stop and reflect on the year that has just ended, asking myself: “Would I consider that a ‘good year’?” Sometimes the answer is ‘yes’ and sometimes the answer is ‘no’ – as I am sure is the case for most people.
For me, 2010 was a good year. My measurement to determine positive or negative is typically not based on financial success or material things – but mostly on accomplishments:
1) starting my blog
2) checking off items from my 40 ‘drops’ list
3) increasing my ‘good time quotient’
What can I say? Big, happy sigh.
Feelin’ good about last year, feelin’ good about next year.
So, my projections for 2011 are exciting and intimidating – all at the same time:
1 - It’s exciting for me to look ahead, particularly to the Travel section of my Top 40 list. There’s some good stuff ahead; places I have wanted to go my entire life, and haven’t made it there yet….. so I have great expectations for the coming year!
2 – Heads up! Look out for a new page to be added called The X-List. This page will describe events, places, and things that I have already “crossed off” or “X’d” off my list (hence, the X-List) prior to starting my blog, so you’ll have a better idea of why certain items aren’t on my current Top 40.
And now – the most ubiquitous question anyone ever asks:
What’s my new year’s resolution?
Well, there’s more than one:
1. Suck down some vitamins
2. Get the car tuned up
3. Renew my passport
...and get ready for possibly the best year of my life.
Happy New Year!
