    New Year | Making Things Happen 2013

    January is going by in a flash…I knew that it would simply because I was gone for the 1st half of the month & I only had 1 week to recover and regroup before I started my new part-time gig yesterday.

    My main “To Do” for this month is to set goals & layout a plan for 2013.  I know that a lot of people set New Year’s resolutions during this time of year, but not me.  They never work out & I usually forget what I resolved to to by the time February rolls around.  However, now that I have started this business, I do want to use this time to re-evaluate, set goals & plan for the year.

    I’ve been following Lara Casey, the editor-in-chief of Southern Weddings, on her blog as she encourages her readers to “Make Things Happen” in 2013.  As I follow her through the 10-step process, I’m discovering things about myself that are pretty interesting to me {more on that later}.  I’m a little bit behind in the process because of my crazy schedule these past few weeks, but I’m making progress & I hope to be finished with the final step before the end of the month so that I can start the work to make it all HAPPEN!

    The 10th & final step is to set goals for 2013, so once I’ve completed that step, I’ll post them here so that you can all help me stay accountable.  {Which is totally scary because then you’ll all know and if I don’t make it…you’ll all KNOW!!}

    Thank you for following & encouraging me along the way! I’m so grateful to everyone for your support this past year.  You’re all amazing.vPINIMAGEV
