I'm Baaaaccckkkkk....

I've made a new school year resolution to blog again.  I have been so busy (perpetual excuse, so I am not going to EVER say it again!).  I have made it my goal to blog at least 3 times per week on my various blogs.

whimsiewear@blogspot.com services my creative side (mostly stamping and fiber crafts-knitting). Devotions by Diana, Dining with Diana, Frugality Girl & 365 things to do this year (you are here) round out the bunch.  To date I have written a few posts and have them scheduled.

If you blog, journal or have some other  passion that is languishing because you are too busy why don't you
1)  Write down your goal
          Goal:  Blog 3 x per week

2)  Write down what hinders you
          Barrier to Blogging:  busy, not enough time

3)  Brainstorm several ideas to overcome the barrier
          Put it on a list and cross it off when I do it (I love lists)
          Get up earlier (nope, 5:30 am is early enough)
          Devote Monday mornings to blogging (get to work 15 minutes early)
          Use items written for other projects (devotions)
          Upload all the photos on my phone
          Take photos before I teach my stamp class
          Etc.
I include anything I think of no matter how wacky!  Often times those crazy ideas actually work!

4)  Practice which solutions work until you find one that fits

I find that I make time for the things that are important to me (running, cooking, sleeping, stamping/knitting, etc.)  If blogging is truly important then I should carve out time for that FIRST (Mondays work).

If I dream it I can do it!
