As The Year Winds Down...

I looked back at my goal list from the beginning of the year and yikes! I didn't get one freakin' goal done. Nada, zip, not one thing done. Ok, I wrote them down, so one thing. Just before Thanksgiving break, during a coffee fueled cleaning sesh in my office, I found the list posted on my board that I see daily but didn't take action. 

This is also the time of year that I evaluate my goals and set up another goal list for next year. I've kept my other lists from years past so I can track my progress - this one hurt a little.

I didn't accomplish anything. 

Am I gonna be a negative Nosferatu and wallow? 

Nope. 

I went down a rabbit hole of my own journals, habits and self-evaluation - what is going to work for me?

I'm a 51 year-old perimenopausal artist and what used to work for me before does not anymore. Getting used to what's happening to me physically, life happening in between paintings and having a job - UG. So I’ve been creating gentler routines, planning my projects with more intention, and giving myself permission to set things up in a way that actually works for me. Less chaos, more clarity. Less “push through it,” more “design it better.”

What are your goals?
