One of my greatest regrets in life is being a perfectionist. Maybe "perfectionist" is a nice way of putting it.

Me + Sports = Disaster in the Making. Let's just say that I'm not the most athletic person you've ever met.However, in my personal challenge to make my life more of a daring adventure and add some zest to the everyday, I recently took the opportunity to go ice skating with some friends.

It's been a long time coming, but now that I've finally gotten college under my belt I am ready to get some parts of my life in order that have been scattered to the four winds, so to speak.
One of my October resolutions was to create my 2013 goals. In order to do that I thought I should narrow down my top 10 values, and I should also create a mission statement. Thanks to Dan's great materials, I was able to come up with a paragraph that embraces my values and gives a somewhat vague…

I must have heard the term “bucket list” at least four times in one day. It’s the title of an Oscar award winning movie, but more than that is a popular concept among positive-thinking, life-changing, entrepreneurship-type blogs and podcasts. It’s the idea that you should make up a list of a hundred, fifty, or…

Mildred Talabi said… That's brilliant Abigail, congratulations on the novel! It takes a lot to go from thinking about writing a book to actually put pen to paper so that's a great achievement!
What's your book about or is it top secret? :-)
I love the US - in fact, I'm going for the first time ever in two weeks and I can hardly wait!

Thanks for joining Strengthen my Spiritual Life. Feel free to add your thoughts to our first discussion topic: "What are your biggest challenges in the Spiritual Arena at the start of 2011?" and/or on any of our other discussions. We recently finished a discussion series about Spiritual Gifts. If you haven't already done so and/or are interested, feel free to look at the Spiritual Gift App discussion and take the short survey, then use the quick links at the bottom of the article to move around the various discussions.
Also, if you are interested, check out Reflective Bible Study and sign up for our weekly newsletter.
Looking forward to growing Spiritually together in 2011 and beyond!

- Hi Abigail,
Just noticed you joined 48Days.net -- WELCOME! It's a great site with tons of great people.
If you happen to be a speaker or author (or want to become either), check out the following groups. They are two of the most popular groups on the site because of all the great conversation taking place.
* Speak It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Speakers!
* Write It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Writers!
One other thing…I want to offer you a gift. You can download my FR EE e-resource entitled Goal-Setting That Actually Works! by joining the REAL Success E-Zine community at www.liveitforward.com. It's a growing and dynamic community of people striving to live WAY BEYOND their average in the most important roles of their lives. I think you'll get a ton out of both the Goal-Setting product and the REAL Success E-Zine. And again, both are absolutely free.
Looking forward to connecting with you!
Live it forward,
Kent Julian

- Hi Abigail -- Welcome to the 48 Days community. We're glad you joined.
This is the idea and social networking site for people that want to create their own opportunity.
What are some of your ideas for moving into the work and life you've always wanted?
Depending on what your interests are, there is a wide selection of discussion groups to get involved with.
One group that is worth looking into is 180 Service Station.
Good stuff going on in there.
Another group you'll want to stop by is the 4 points coaching compass.That's my group.
You are invited to get involved in this week's discussion. We are talking about whether or not anyone ever really needs a coach.
