Project, "Win"...
When I think too much I can't function. It's like being in bumper to bumper traffic, beeping at the plethora of vehicles in front of me--aside from the headache from all the racket, nothing productive comes from it. So many ideas, so many things that I want to do, so many things that could fail just as quickly as they looked promising. I wrote my three most important goals/visions a couple of weeks ago (http://ctaretz.xanga.com/770527748/a-new-years-around-the-corner/), but, do I have the balls to stick with those goals/visions? Well, today I must exclaim--DAMN RIGHT! I've walked away from the goals/visions I've had in the past, and this has been the pattern I designed for myself my whole life. Why?--because things didn't go my way from the beginning, I couldn't obtain the success in those said goals/visions from the beginning--whether it was because of a "catch 22", or, it was more work then I anticipated. This got me discouraged and I left them to freeze in the frigid blizzard of "fail". I know today that, because of the fact that life isn't easy in general, the goals/visions I want to succeed in will take, not just working hard, but, working smart after a good amount of planning--this is a must if I want to succeed in earning the freedom to live the life I've been dreaming about ever since I can remember. Or close to it (nothing in life will work towards my advantage 100%).
A list of three things that will start me on my way to success:
1. Write down my attainable goals/visions, along with a mission statement.2. Work out a plan to achieve said goals.
3. Create a balanced schedule--business and personal--so I don't get burned out.
I'm in control of my life, I make my own choices, and it's my responsibility to work towards the success and happiness I seek. Yes, I believe that my higher power, friends and family will help me along the way but, there's very little they can do if I drop the ball and kick it down the road.
Project, "Win!"--has begun...

@Colorsofthenight - I'm going to check your book out when I get back to Chicago. I did try to check out your trailer but, when I got there it said it was removed. I hope things get better for you. You are a good woman. I like you. I want things to work out for you, and don't worry about reviewing my book, take your time, and if you still can't get to it, it's okay. Congratulations on your book, that is a tremendous feat... I'm proud of you...
@ctaretz - no problem.
@ctaretz - yeah, errors are hard to catch when you self-publish. I have a few in my book as well. I had to edit it like 8 times. What do you think of the trailer? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEGflUIO25E
Did you make a trailer for your book? So far, it's helped me make some sales. My book is free. I just want to see what people think of my writing.
I did read your book, but I didn't write a review. I'll get to it. Lots of bad things have been happening to me... LOL
It's hard for me to be coherent sometimes. Plus, forming words is getting harder for me. They've really gone after that left side.
@Colorsofthenight - Thank you very much...
Keep writing. I enjoy reading your written word.
@RighteousBruin - Thank you, I sure hope so...
These three steps will get you just about anywhere. Of course, it probably won't happen tomorrow, but winning is in the cards.
@PPhilip - Agreed.
@ctaretz - A lot of time people hide errors so that different versions will give you a clue to where (The source whether it is copied from an e book or from a printed source.) someone is plagiarizing or not. Spell check tells you if a word is really badly spelled and grammar is a harder error to spot.
@PPhilip - Thanks. I'm actually aware of the errors in my book. I've started to correct them for the paperback. Oversights, it happens, but, I'm happy that you are willing to help me to excel. Was it you that gave me that nice review. Awesome if it was, I appreciate that, Honest and you told me that my book was good but, not perfect, I expected that to be the case, it being my first written book, ever.
I appreciate and am grateful for your input...
Pss, instead of missionary statement it is mission statement.
In Paycheck to paycheck e-book it is petals not pedal
and in another part it is monster not moster.
Catastrophe not catastrorphe
Being perfect is not easy but we can work towards perfection.
