Okay so who said my new year's resolutions/goals had to be declared by 01.01.10?
I mean really?
I think any day is as good as ever to decide to make a change. And as I mentioned yesterday, today is that day. HOOORAY! :)
Once I reveal my Goalutions (lol, I mixed resolution and goals teeehehehe), it's official. No more bitching. No more whining. No more excuses. Game on!
And to preface my Goalutions I would like present my mantra for the year. I am sooooo a mantra person.
I dubbed "2000 - Great" for 2008
I dubbed "Time to shine in 2009"
And now "Doing it Again in 2010" (This refers to having an amazing and productive year such as that of my 2009)
I now present you with My Top 10 for 2010.

ReplyDeleteI love your list. It's so sensible, yet gives you something to work toward. I like "eat for health." Not "eat to be skinny"! You know? There's a difference :)
Do you speak a bit of italiano? I wish I would have picked up more when I lived in Rome.
And #8. Yes. Oh yes :)
