The Challenge

by Kate Van Raden

Ok my dear sweet blogosphere readers…

I have put it to myself to begin my resolution early this year, in order to be that much better off in time for 2011 (a challenge for sanity all on its own). For the sake of said vice, I will attempt to maintain some level of  discretion regarding specifics. Without disclosing too many details, I will say simply that I have it in mind to give up something in my life that is keeping me stuck/not enhancing my self growth. This ‘something’ is something I really and truly must peel my fingers away from one at a time. It will not be easy. I will certainly be grumpy; and  in no way do I feel confident towards my success in the matter. Yet, try I must. God only knows that I would never do anything of remark if I only undertook the tasks with guaranteed success. To the contrary, I have always been a bit of a dragon slayer, a fate temptress; much to my parents dismay ;)

Half of me wants to say ‘well, if I accomplish this, great…if not, no biggy’, but I believe I know myself well enough at this point to admit that I need to be held accountable here. Hence the fact that I have decided to bring my challenge to the blog. I’ll let you know in the next few weeks how I am doing.
