Starting My New Challenge

Why Hello! I hope all is going well with you. As for me, I couldn't be happier. In fact, I am glad to see you chose to stop by and check out my blog. I have a new personal challenge. I would like to include some of my hobbies in my everyday life and have been unsuccessful for the past two years. So I have started a blog to tell you how this goes... and I am using this as motivation.

My goal includes adding exercising and writing into my daily schedule, and on the days that I have time, I would like to include playing piano as well. My daily schedule already includes working full-time, taking care of pets, and making time for family & friends, but somewhere along the way I lost the motivation to take care of myself. Inspired to lose weight, accomplish my writing goals, and find a way back to playing piano, I have decided to tell you about the daily accomplishments and challenges that are involved each day.

Have you seen the movie Julie & Julia? This was actually my inspiration. Julie Powell was inspired by Julia Child's cooking. In an effort to become more of the person she wanted to be, she decided to take the challenge to cook a Julia Child's recipe each day for 365 days and tell everyone in a blog about her experiences. In the process, she learns so much about herself and inspires others on her journey to self-improvement.

In my case, I would like to work on becoming the individual I have always wanted to be: happy, healthy, and able to inspire those around me.

My 365 day challenge begins February 15th, 2012. Until February 15th arrives, I am using these days before hand to adjust and create a routine. What I plan to inspire you with is the different foods I eat to be healthy, the various exercises I do to become physically fit, writing in this blog will tell my story along with encouraging me to publish my screenplays, and music is included because it fills the soul in a positive way.

Have you ever wondered how adults are able to accomplish so much in a day? They are extremely busy, yet they are very successful. Well, through trial and error, I'm going to guide you and show you how it is possible to become the successful individual you would like to be... along with making my dreams finally come true.
