project beginning

with january came the beginning of my 2011 happiness project. i have almost all of the months formed. only august is lacking. i have developed 12 personal commandments and will be tackling one each month and bringing what i've learned from the last month to the current month. the goal by the end of the year is to recognize the things that drain my happiness and cut them out of my life while discovering and accentuating the things that increase my happiness.

january's commandment is be prepared. i'm huge on planning things and find i become quickly frazzled and unhappy when i am unprepared. this week i'll be working on setting out my clothes the night before, whether they be work, gym, or other. sounds simple, but makes a huge difference when the morning comes and i'm running late. it worked great this morning when i was getting ready for church. wish me luck!

ps- it is not too late to start your own project!
