Different and Better 2011

I am always looking to make myself a better person. True, I should do it all the time but turning points, like a new year, are always a good benchmark. I want to 2011 to be a better and different year. I have made my goals for 2011. Here we go:

Physical - lose 42 pounds by eating healthier and riding my bike (I lost 38 pounds in 2010) - OH, and attend Bhangra 'n Bollywood dancing classes with my friend Amanda at the JCC

Mental - join a scrabble league of some sort, to exercise the brain & commit to reading four books this year - I know it doesn't sound like a lot, four books, but with a four year old it's nearly impossible to find time to read, I use to read four books in a month...

Spiritual - Learn about the Islamic culture and religions belonging to it by researching and attending their churches/Mosques and cultural events.

Financial - to save money - ha! right? this one always wavers, any amount of money I can keep in my savings account will exceed my goal - ANY!

These are my tangible goals for 2011. Pray for me :) ha! No, really, I hope to achieve them all and learn and grow from them. Life is too short to just sit around. I always love the spiritual goals because that means learning about people and what they believe and most importantly why they believe it.

Anyhoo - nite nite!
