New Month, New Me (Again.....)

First day of October! Gosh this year has FLOWN by! The Holiday Season has just begun. First Halloween, then Thanksgiving then CHRISTMAS!!! Add into that all the birthday's plus trying to plan a wedding and my eyes start going crossed! I'm going to need some serious help to get through the next few months!

I've been thinking about discipline. I have no self discipline. NONE! I can't stick with anything for very long. (I know this is a major change of subject from what I was talking about before but hang with me a little bit. I promise I'll make sense!)

I tried Gymnastics when I was a kid. Quit.

Violin lessons? Quit.

Girl Scouts? Quit.

College? Quit.

I'm tired of quitting! I find it very hard to discipline myself to a routine. I'm more of a fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of person. And I talk myself into any reason to quit something. (I did quit smoking 2 years ago (cold turkey!) so I will give me a couple brownie points for that!)

This is my resolution to Quit Quitting! LOL With a new month and the holidays upon us I need all the routine and sanity I can get. Below are my resolutions for the following year!

1. Get up every morning and MOVE MY BODY!
     I have followed www.toneitup.com for a couple years now and have their Nutrition Plan and everything. But again, I quit on them. No more! I need more energy and my body is not in very good shape at all! There is no reason to QUIT this again!

2. Go back to school!
     I have already started this ball rolling. I went and applied for school last week and signed up for Orientation today. I am finally following my dream of becoming a Marine Biologist. Yes, I know I'm going to be about twice the age of all the other students but I'm tired of living with the regret of never finishing college.

3. Blog more!

     I enjoy writing and reading. I have had this blog for some time now but I'm not disciplined enough to make my self sit down and write for a little bit a day! I'm going to work on that! I love to read other peoples' blogs and am so envious of their perfectly written beautiful blogs with pictures and links to this and that. I want to know how to do that! So I'm going to work on it!

Those are my resolutions so far! I may add more as this project progresses! We will see what each day holds! This blog will be for public accountability. It will be my place to clear out my head and put what I'm thinking into words.
Hope you enjoy!
