There are things I have been neglecting this year. I have been so busy with so many things that I feel I have missed my life a little. Just realizing that it is November already is freaking me out. I have experienced so much this year, though. I have been to other countries for the first time in my life. To 11 other countries!! This is so incredible to me. I have met so many great people all over the world. I have been able to get to know my colleagues, whom I LOVE!
Yet, I feel that I have neglected my friends. I have neglected my family, my self, my dogs, my house (and my blog). I seem to lack some focus at the moment. So, I need to challenge myself to be more organised. Make time for the most important things to me.
I have so many new things I want to learn. It is so important to challenge your mind on so many different levels.
I would love to learn Spanish. I would love to start taking a dancing class. I would love to know more about so many things!
I have, thus, decided that I need to join a dance class and I am starting my Spanish classes in January. :)
And I am setting myself a goal to find out more about dancing and where I can take classes here in my town. I will blog about my progress. This is also something I should be doing more of. ;)
I also need to make time that I can spend with my friends. My amazing friends. This is so, so, so important.

yep. get selfish with your dreams and ideals.
a topical quote Brian posted earlier:
Every successful man or great genius has three particular qualities in common. The most conspicuous of these is that they all produce a prodigious amount of work. The second is that they never know fatigue. And the third is that their minds grow more brilliant as they grow older, instead of less brilliant. Great men’s lives begin at forty, where the mediocre man’s life ends. The genius remains an ever-flowing fountain of creative achievement until the very last breath he draws.
~ Walter Russell Quotes from The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universeand you are undoubtedly a genius!
