Balance is a good way to think about a ToDo list. I should start thinking in those terms, instead of the big ol' list.
I did pretty good, though, today, in balancing life.
The only thing I missed on was making a good dinner for my family. But, something had to give, since I was out of the house most of the day.

I am tired reading all of those goals/ habits. But the fact that you have taken the time to prioritize alone is a great accomplishment. Do what you can with what you have where you are…that is what my dad always said to me. That's what I try to do to BALANCE. Keep us posted Cris. I am most interested in finding the time to exercise 5x a week and your Bible reading goals!

Isn't it so funny how we can look into someone else's life and know exactly what the problem is, lol?
You did a great job of breaking down what to focus on! Normally I would say that this is a lot to focus on, but these aren't all *goals* but habits you are wanting to build into your life. If you find it is too much, back down to 3 or 4 to really get ingrained.
Now if I can just get motivated…

Help? Looks like you've got it under control! For some reason whenever I make a list -actually put things down in writing- it seems so much more do-able. When things are just floating around in my head it seems nearly impossible to achieve what I want.

I share a lot of your goals and need to add a few. Guess I need to start writing! More power to you!

How about now you make my list now :)

This year I'm reading a yearly chronological bible. I really like it. The English major in me appreciates chronological order.

Midnight?? You go to bed at midnight? And what time do you get up to begin accomplishing all that - 4 AM?? I'm thinking you're expecting a lot out of yourself. Just sayin' ;-)

I have really enjoyed using 'The Daily Bible' this year. I usually use my NASB, and I know where everything is in that Bible, but The Daily Bible has the date on the top of the section I'm to read, which is very helpful. I'm really enjoying it.

I like the idea of the creative space, but I bet yours would look better and not so busy. A busy creative space would freeze my brain.

And now a question: I took my subscription option off my blog because I realized that people wouldn't see all the rest of the stuff on my blog - like my book and my soaps. Do you think there's an advantage in keeping the subscription option available?

Have a great weekend! :-)

That looks pretty ambitious to me!

I went through a long funk last fall, where I wasn't accomplishing much (anything) and now that I'm being more productive, I feel so much better. PRODUCTIVE is my word for 2011. :)
