- to spend less time worried about where and when I was moving on to my next work assignment and to enjoy the time I had at home
- to reduce the levels of procrastination in my life
- to enjoy the time I have with friends and family
- to let go of the worries of work once in a while
After experiencing a month of sharing a home with my sister, BIL, niece and nephew I know my goal was an inspired one. It sits in the back of my mind in the afternoon when I've finished work for the day and my niece and nephew want me to play hide and seek with them when, what I really want to do, is sit quietly and read for a while or catch up on blogging/email. That little voice reminds me I want to be present this year and that I won't have them with me for long; the time I have with them now is a rare gift.
I'm so grateful for the inspiration back in January that keeps me focussed even on those days when keeping up with a 2 & 3 year old makes me feel old!
Did you pick a word for 2011? Or maybe a goal for the year? Looking back, how is it going? Did you pick the right goal or is it time for a new one?
I've fallen in love with the way the day sounds at my house, full of childish voices and laughter.
