"Aha" Moment... of sorts

With the passing of 2009, I find that my focus has been a little bit lax lately. Not really motivated to do anything but the same old mundane things. SO with that feeling and 2010 beginning as a motivation I have decided to really make this year count.

Yeah, I know people say this all the time. new Years resolutions and all of that but I have never been that type of a person. I have a short list of very doable goals that I plan on concurring before the year is up. None of which are cooking related, but I guess I could throw a couple in for good measure (At least those I know I'll do lol).

First on my list?

Finish my Grad school Apps. My GMAT test is in less that two weeks and applications are due right around February 1. By the time my next blog is completed so will these apps!

Second Goal:
Kind of woven throughout - Be more outgoing

I want to be a little more outgoing. I'm not shy around family and friends but as soon as people I'm not too familiar w/ come along I get uncomfortable and start to watch my words. That could be a good thing, but generally it just makes people think I'm standoffish or snobby. Not cool.

I also want to spend more time w/ friends.

Third Goal:
Read more books than I did in 2009.

I read quite a few good books last year but I want to improve on that, and add in some non-fiction industry related ones. Any suggestions? shot them my way. Im most interested in the Entertainment industry as well as Business and Hospitality/Restaurateur-ness (is that a word? It is now). I read about 9 books so I'm shooting for 10 or more.

Fourth Goal:
Learn Guitar.

This is my fun goal for the year. I got a guitar for Christmas and It's already a challenge but I welcome it w/ open arms. Im looking for a digital tuner now so I can really dive in.

More goals will be added as I think of them, but this is a good start I think. Wish me luck!
