The world needs dreamers and the world needs doers. But above all, the world needs dreamers who do. - Sarah Ban BreathnachI have big dreams. Always have. But I am often disappointed when those dreams or more often goals are not achieved. It seems like ever school year I have a goal for myself. Sometimes it gets accomplished, sometimes...well, it doesn't. But this year I have decided to start early. And to be honest, this is going to be a tough one...
So as I am planning our 2011-2012 school year, I have decided that I want to get up earlier. Start school earlier so we can end earlier and either 1.) We can both have our respective personal times, 2.) I can accomplish more cleaning, or 3.) We can spend more fun time together. And I have begun the journey to that goal.
So all this week I have been working towards that goal. That hour that I need to wake up has now been set. I have two alarms set, one on my alarm clock for 8:30AM and a back-up alarm that I stick under my pillow for 8:45AM. So far it has been working. Once I get up, I find breakfast, shower, get dressed and go to Facebook. I am trying to limit my time on Facebook to only an hour or so a day. That dang thing is addictive!!! But ladies and gents, I think I might just be able to pull this one off!
Every day this week, I have been getting up at 8:30AM or a little earlier. I feel rested, and energized. I am happy (or at least after I have had my hour to myself). I have decided not only to be a dreamer but to be a doer. A doer who accomplishes those goals I set for myself and for my family. (And to finish school no later than 1:00PM!)
