Christmas has passed, and the New Year has started! I love
this time of year. For as fast as it seems to blow by, there’s also a sense of
slowing down and surrounding yourself with family and friends. Great memories
are made as we enjoy one another’s presence, look to our past year, and
contemplate our future.
And that’s exactly my challenge for todayJ
Writer friends, take a moment to look at the goals you set for 2016. How many
did you meet? How many did you miss? And if you did miss some, were they realistic
to begin with or did procrastination get the best of you? Be honest! Then
readjust for this year as needed. 2017 is a brand new slate, so take what you
learned from 2016 and apply it.
Most of all, don’t forget to celebrate your successes—big or
small! And have a very happy New Year friendsJ

Susan, I'm so thankful 2017 is a new slate! I did publish a novella but failed in editing a manuscript. It was doable- procrastination got the best of me. It's high on my 2017 goals.
ReplyDeleteHi Susan - wonderful post. I really didn't get as much accomplished in 2016 as i'd hoped but instead of beating myself up I'm looking forward to 2017 and a chance to meet some goals! Blessings and happy new year!
