Talking To Myself Again

Blogging.... As always, an important tool. But what good is the tool when you have nothing to say? Does one always have to have a message? Is it important to give out random thoughts?

Yes, it is.

Journaling or Blogging helps you organize your thoughts..... assuming you have any. (I seem to be lacking them at the moment)

It helps you stay in contact with others and keep them appraised to your life, goals, progress and so on. Bla bla bla.

Well what are my goals? Get back into shape (preferably not round, even though that is a shape). Continue my education in personal interests (I have achieved Coach 1 and am working toward SSI, JM, and Coach 2). Creating new projects for the Kwoon and the community (working on that). Increase my awareness and empathy, and live by the standards I feel are important (working on that too). There are others, but a rendition of personal and professional goals are as much fun to type as they are to read (like watching paint dry).

Why the verbal barrage? Being consistent and practicing follow through is how you achieve goals. I have never been one for journaling or blogging. If I have nothing to say, I skip it (it drove my teachers nuts in school, as my marks were known to reflect). But that is not how one achieves their goals. Taking consistent action, remaining focused, and recording one's progress, that's how it works. So with this most simple of tasks, I am going to succeed. Even if I am just talking to myself.

BTW, for those keeping track, UBBT... I'm in.
