I've joined the social networking site 43 Things.com -- it's designed to help you set goals (silly to serious) and get support in making them. I only have 26 so far, but the advice on the site is to have 20-43 so that'll do it!
I can't figure out the short-cut way to get my list of goals onto this site, so until I have time to type them all up again, I'll start by telling you about one goal idea I got from the site, "Make a list of 100 things that make you happy (besides money)." I've started with that one because I figure if I know what things make me genuinely happy, I'll have an easier time setting goals that I'll actually find fulfilling instead of doing the things I think I should, the things other people expect me to want. On first thought, only 16 things that make me genuinely happy occurred to me, but I'll have more.
The first 16:
1. Popping bubble wrap
2. Warm laundry, right from the dryer
3. Flower bouquets
4. Listening to just the right music for my mood
5. Snow
6. A really rich cup of coffee
7. Squirrels
8. A good haircut
9. Getting a pedicure
10.How I feel after a workout
11.Puppies
12.Strawberries -- small and sweet, or chocolate-covered
13.Rollercoasters
14.Singing
15.Storms
16.Driving with the top down on my Mustang
Does it make me a little pathetic that I could only do 16? I'm pretty sure it doesn't, because these are really like little serotonin shots straight to my brain!
