Obama

So I am all signed up now to help in the Obama Campaign. I'm very excited as this will be the first campaign I participate in.

I really believe that Obama is the right candidate for our time and the situation this country finds itself in.

Last night I went to the Jefferson-Jackson rally and I am signed up to go to a Super Tuesday watching party and canvass next weekend...sounds like fun:)

February

So I decided I'm going to wait until February to start on my Ten new habits as this month is pretty much over and I didn't do anything anyway...

10 New Habits in 21 Days

I read somewhere once that it takes 21 days to form a habit. I also learned that "we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit." So I figure, there are so many things I've been meaning to do and never get around to, why not take the next 21 days and form great habits?

So, I want to form 10 New positive habits for everyday:

  1. Run
  2. Drinking water
  3. Read daily
  4. Learn something new
  5. Work at work, relax at home
  6. Blog Daily
  7. Go to sleep before 11:30
  8. Perform a spiritual activity
  9. Stick to my budget
  10. One random act of kindness
