Ugly Bully, Beautiful Soul

Ugly Bully, Beautiful Soul 

I’m just like you
But I’m nothing like you
Because I wouldn’t do that to anybody
But you don’t even think twice

Never in my life
Have I seen so clearly
What is wrong
What is beautiful
Thank you
Thank you
Pick myself up dust your ugliness off

I’m here to do my job
I’m here to love on this world
What are you here for?
That’s what I thought

Try as you will
Bring me down if you can
But you don’t know me at all
Not a thing
No not even close

Alone and scared is what you wanted me to be
Empowered and proud I feel
My greatest weakness is my greatest strength
Try as you will

You won’t bring me down.

Goals. Planning.

Goals: I have goals but am I working towards them? Yes but not in a structured way. I want to be more goal driven. When it comes to professional or health goals I tend to stay on track. But I often struggle to follow through with my creative goals. I know that adding more creativity to my life will make me more fulfilled and that I have a lot to offer in this area in a variety of different ways and yet I rarely make the time to sit down and create. So that is what this entry will be about. I want to start creating goals for myself and holding myself accountable. So how am I going to go about this. What is it that I really want to create. I have such a large array of interests that sometimes I get mixed up in the choices of what to do. But then I never get to become proficient in any one of these areas. I really want to work on this part of myself. Firstly, though I think it could be important to make a list of the areas that most interest me right now. I want to come up with a doable plan for actually doing these things on a day to day basis. It's okay to rotate between projects as long as it is organized chaos. Getting excited. Okay so my list. Here goes nothing.

Writing- Long term Goal: Write Novels- Short term: Write a blog entry daily for a week. Short term: brainstorm and outline a book idea. Next: start writing the first chapter. AHHH

Okay so I think that is a good place to begin.
So. How am I going to fit this into my life. For starters. For 1 month I will rotate between each of these interests daily until it become a way of life.
