    Failure

    By wholysoul,

    Well 365 did fail for a myriad of reasons. Some out of my control, some totally in my control and some old issues which were brought in to the light due to the concept. So yes I failed but it wasn't 100% and the large goal of pushing myself to mend broken parts and face new challengs was meet. And I think I may try again this year but the approach must be far different.
     
    I think the block for this year is finding a non-baised way to hold myself accountable. Here isn't the best place, not that those who might repond will judge more some of the walls broken down are quite personal and being they type who doesn't actualize thoughts until they are said outloud or written, a blog isn't the best place to do so. Maybe go back to the old school journal.... eh I will figure something out probably after I get some more legit suff on here.

    ....a strong pair of gonads and a step.
     
    So I thought after spending a few months reading far too many stories on here it was time I put my own thoughts to pen....errr pixel? So tomorrow I officially will start writing in what I am now naming the "Bloodline" universe with most likely "Faery Boy" book. Both titles are a work in progress for now. I doubt I will nail them down until later. But I hope to have a first draft of chapters 1 and hopefully two done by Monday.
     
    So why bother with a blog if you don't have your shit together?
    I figured got to start making myself known enough so someone can help me edit. Hopeless at editing *points to self* and also I know I will keep up with my writing if I know someone, anyone is reading. Ie accountability :-p
     
    Next post should be a glimpse into the "Bloodline" Universe or talking about the posted chapters.
     
    Cheers

    p.s. gonads = balls/ovaries....well preformed ones
    p.p.s. In other words I tell my female friends to grow a pair of ovaries and women up. When gender is unknown I use gonads.

    Gung Hay Fat Choy

    By wholysoul,

    Completed
    1-hike - PG&E Trail in Lost Gatos
    1-gym visit
    3- movies- The Artist (academy winner), Robocop (good for a reboot), The LEGO Movie (everything is awesome!)
    2- Annual events – SF Pillow Fight, Chinese New Years Parade
    1-Un-Plugged day- twas a bomb b-day to not worry about stupid apps, e-mails, calls or texts
     
    Modifcation:
    12 of the 28 lazy days have been changed to Un-Plugged days
     
    I haven’t had a chance to work on some of the long term projects, I will probably do some guitar and start the deep clean/purge today.
     
    I was also thinking that having commenting enabled on here might be me seeking out validation and therefore undermining the long term project of getting some more confidence. I will toy with it a touch longer. Or maybe not worry about it if no one takes note of the blog…probably that it is what I will do. As long as I stay relatively anonymous I will keep it open but not respond to comments. But if it picks up any momentum I will lock it down.
     
     
    8 down in 3 days. 357 to go in 362 days

    12- craft projects; finish an old one or a new one, one novella-one physical-one poetry set
    6- new cities/places-3 way new (If I don't remember from early childhood or had a lay over it doesn't count as way new but it counts for new)
    5- visit 3 other places (only 1 SLO)
    4- 3 guitar songs and the basics
    1-be able to have a conversation in a new language
    1-better at giving massages

    28- hikes
    168-gym visits
    1-learn to let go of things
    2-toss two useless apps
    1-figure out that tick
    1-get some more confidence
    12-things that are out of my comfort zone
    12-get out and go
    1-keep this updated, at least weekly posts of what is done and some monthly, quartly or so cross off/changes of the list, picures to keep track
    12- anual events (Chinese New Year's Parade, mud runners, 1/2 marathones etc., at least 10 must be new)
    1-less impulsive
    1-don't let thinking bog you down
    1- less B.C.
    2-deep cleans/purges
    28-lazy days (I only get this many ie motivation to get the rest done also a cheat way to have 365 to do on my 28th year while not causing myself to age 3 years due to the stress of getting all these done.)
     
     
    Other rules:
     
    Categories that are long term self help issues, valid improvement will count as completion if said item is added to next year. Not sure if it will count as a new item or just and extra for next year.
     
    Substitutions are allowed since it is life and shit can hit the fan or find yourself moved to a new country or such.
     
    Bouns points for each lazy day not used but it has to be replaced with something.

    Second Chances

    By wholysoul,

    We don't always get second chances nor do we always take advantage of the first one. I guess that is the theme of my 28 year on this planet. You see I don't belive in New Years Resolutions. Why let some random date dicate when you make changes in your life. (Sure we should be doing that everyday) So I chose one viatal to me, my birthday. I have made a list of things I don't want to waste any more not time doing....well for the most part, a few are just to oblige me to do things I should but don't do :-p
     
    Since I already made this blog I am going to run with it and use it to keep a record of my b-day resolutions. Sure some of them easy like go to the gym a million times or go for a hike, but others will probably force me to break down some walled in emitions or fight some demons. I want to make a record of it to hold myself accountable and so I can look back at it.
     
    Just so you know 2 of the 365 resoultions are publish at least a short on here if not a noval and get a few pomes out.
     
    I am still hammoring the final list out but I will post it before the dreaded valintines day.
     
    And yes giving this blog a second chance too in the process.
