Time for a Change

Do you ever feel that your life is just the same day over and over again?  That nothing every changes and your not going anywhere?  I had the same feeling and decided that it was time for a change.  Now, I can be honest and say that I have made this decision many, many, many, times before.  So what is going to be different about this time?  Well, in the last quarter of last year (Q4 '12) there were a ton of signs that change was in the air.  There are a lot of people in my life who seem to be starting new chapters of their life.  Getting married, having children, new jobs, and promotions.  I guess that these things happen everyday, but the feeling I had was that change was in the air, and I wanted a piece of it.

Everyday there are opportunities which we don't necessarily take.  I can't say how many times I've been talking with friends and we dream about starting this or that kind of business.  Last year, I had a conversation like this with a group of friends and the idea really stuck.  The group started with 4 girls, which quickly dropped down to three and then to two when it came time to put our money where our mouth was.  We are now in the process of starting our own business.  Regardless of how it turns out, this is a completely new experience for me and has been a fantastic new motivator in my life.

I've been a supporter of Vision Boards for a while, but mine was over a year old.  With this new found dedication to change, I did a brand new, kick butt, awesome one for 2013.  I did it the first new moon of the new year.  I look it at every morning to stay inspired and motivated.  I recommended making one if your trying to promote change in your life, the instructions are here.

Lastly, at least for this blog, I'm starting this blog.  It is mostly to make myself accountable to my commitment to change.  In project management, we push accountability to those responsible to ensure results.  The same applies here.
