2011 Resolutions

Last week I posted my reverse resolutions for 2010

I'm going to be brave and post my resolutions for 2011 as well

1-Begin each day with a Prayer of Gratitude

2-Practice Discipline

That's it.

A freight train can be moved in a different direction by pulling a simple switch. 

Over time, great canyons can be carved into solid rock with a trickle of water. 

Small actions can create big results. 

(I got to DRIVE this freight train in Kamiah Idaho!)

Do you have any short and/or long term goals?
Can they be distilled into a simple word or a phrase?

I'd love to hear about them.

Procrastinating

What do you do when you are procrastinating a deadline? When you don't want to do what you know you really need to get on with doing!?

My website links to my blog by saying something about only posting "when I have time... which is only when I'm avoiding a deadline." Like today. I need to make a couple of quilts for a show and I just want to do something else.

So I made another sketchbook cover.


And here is another doodle. From a few weeks ago. All the doodles I've made recently turned out ugly. That's fine. Doodles aren't meant to be your masterpiece... they're just doodles.

Now I really need to get into the studio and force myself to work. I'm having discipline problems.

Really, I'd love to hear what your favorite thing to do is when you are "procrastinating."
