The great goggle search ::: Sports Authority ::: January 2, 2012 |
On January 2nd I jumped feet first into my resolutions list.
Yes, I am that girl who writes up a three page word document full of goals for the new year. It might be dorky, but last year I typed a detailed resolutions list for the first time since I was a pre-adolescent. I found the experience empowering, as it gave me a keen sense of purpose and focus that I had not anticipated. The success of my 2011 list, prompted me to spend last week joyfully filling up another word document. I titled it, "2012".
This brings us back to January 2nd.
As the second day of the year arrived, I was armed with my list ready to go. I was ready to act boldly. Try something new. Face a fear. Tackle a bear. So I went swimming!
I knew I was being silly, but I let the fear take over for months.
I felt free.
Lighter.
Fear no longer choking the life out of actions.
And the possible judgement of others no longer consumed my thoughts.
Later, I flipped open my lab top. I placed a strike line through the words, "swim at least once at the gym". My first resolution of the year completed.
I grinned with pride.
I added another underneath it.
"Swim often. @ least four times per month."

Cheers to facing fears and being bold in 2012!
