As I sit and stare at the remains of Christmas, I can't help but wonder what 2015 will hold in store. This past year has been very busy! I've had three books released - The Mystery Lady (March), The Bakery Lady (Sept) and Death of a Jaded Samurai (November). I've done a few author events, taken on a second part-time job, and been overwhelmed with many things in both my personal and professional life that have made me seriously consider major life changes.
Yet, here I sit.
Over the next year:
- I have a deadline looming for Murder of a Fallen Fighter (Book 2 in my Yin-Yang Series).
- I need to finish The Painted Lady (Book 4 in my Wild Blue Mysteries Series).
- I want to grade for my Brown Belt in karate.
- I want to integrate both Yoga and Meditation into my life to help keep my sanity. Eventually becoming a Yoga Teacher one day.
- I'd love to keep in touch and spend more time with my friends and family (even though they're 2,000 miles away!) Going to Las Vegas this fall with my mom, brother and sister-in-law was a definite start!
- I need to become more balanced and not let the negative things others say affect me so deeply.
- I want to map out several more books for over the next few years. The ideas are there, I just need to make a plan. Including one fabulous idea given to me by a neighbour. Lots of research needed for that one!
Baby steps - just as in the movie "What About Bob?" with Bill Murray. Whenever I have a large task to get through, I break it down into a series of baby steps.
Bob Wiley: (to himself) ...baby steps get on the bus, baby steps down the aisle, baby steps...
Bob Wiley: (to himself) ...baby steps get on the bus, baby steps down the aisle, baby steps...
I wish you all a wonderful 2015 filled with both big events and baby steps,
Happy New Year!
