through the desert on a horse with no name...

Well...Hello again. Clearly, it's been a while since I've posted. I wish I could tell you a lofty tale of how I was traveling across the Moroccan desert and came across a small group of people who needed my help and because they were so grateful, they made me the leader of their village and asked me to stay. I did, of course, and spent the last 3 months selling exotic rugs and fruits at the market in Marrakesh.

But....and brace yourself...that's not true. I've been here, I've just been blogularily challenged.

So now it's January and I'd like to set a goal of at LEAST one post a month. I say goal and NOT resolution for a reason. Resolutions don't last (trust me - I'm a complete professional on this).

Resolutions can be infinite...There's no end to them. For example:

-I'm going to run 5 day a week ( for the rest of my life)
-I'm going to lose weight (not sure how much, just some)
-I'm going to blog every day or until my fingers cramp (I'm sure I am)
-I will never eat potato chips or chocolate again (ya....whatever!)

We talk about this at the office, 'what is not celebrated is soon forgotten' but how can you celebrate something that never ends?!!

Goals are definite...there is a date of completion. For example:

-I'm going to run 3 days a week for a month
-I'm going to lose 15lbs
-I'm going to blog at least once a month
-I will have potato chips and chocolate once a week (ok...chocolate maybe twice)

Start the party!!!! With every accomplished and celebrated goal, I can almost guarantee you will gain momentum rather than others with resolutions who lose motivation.

So here's to a year of partying -for all the right reasons!!
