Day One, Act One, Scene One

So here it is another year and this year I desperately want things to be different than last and the year before that… and really from the last seven years.  My hope and prayer is that by blogging about what life changes I want to make and then what I’m doing to achieve those changes I will be held accountable and actually change.  These are not resolutions these are things that I know, that I know, that I know if I don’t do my life will continue to spiral downward.  I don’t want to continue to live in the mediocre life I have created but live the exceptional life that God has created me for.

I am a self-help reading nut.  From Zig Zigglar to Dan Miller to Stephan Covey I’ve read them all and have extracted things from reading them that I plan on incorporating into my life.  Also being a Christian I incorporate the Bible and various teachers and scholars knowledge and suggestions to help guide me.

I’ve broken everything into seven categories: Financial, Physical, Personal Development, Family, Spiritual, Social, and Professional.  Basically the idea is to highlight and focus on what I don’t like within these areas and figure out where and how to make adjustments.

A journey starts with a single step; but it will end if you don't continue taking steps forward.  I pray that this is the first of many steps.  I welcome any and all who wish to follow along or just to observe in my adventure.  I plan on posting every Sunday throughout 2012—Lets see where this path will lead.
