What’s your biggest remaining challenge?

Did I really just commit to doing this in front of the world?

I did, didn’t I. Hoo, boy.

My internal dialogue sounds something like this right now:

Maybe if I quickly delete the pages, no one will have noticed. It’s still early. I can just slink away. I can’t make a commitment like this. Why, there should be a law against allowing posts in the middle of the night when people aren’t thinking clearly!

I think my real underlying fear is, what if I can’t do this? And everyone sees me?

OK, deep breath.

Commitment is exactly what’s been missing in the past on my end. Taking care of myself has been something I did at the end of the day if I had time after taking care of everything else. It’s time to prioritize this “one last thing” and tackle it as I have everything else. I have the resources to do this.

Phew, OK. Blogger’s remorse has passed…. Hmm, fair to categorize this post under “persistence” even though it’s only Day Two of the Grand Experiment?

I do want to share a picture of myself with you so I’m not a faceless person out there in the blogosphere. I was going to post a professional head shot, but opted for something a little more personal instead. Here we are at the free Como Zoo on a trip to Minnesota. Great place to visit!
