In Pursuit of Happiness

We're all in pursuit of happiness in some form or another. You may even know of the GNH (Gross National Happiness). Evidently, I am not as special or unique as I thought. I fall into the majority of women (72 out of 100 if you are counting) who feel happiness as we make progress towards a goal--even if the actual goal isn't achieved.

It's a fun statistic but it means so much more to me. I NEED progress of some form. Chicken Little can be knocking at my door but as long as I have a plan towards progress of some kind I feel like I can weather it--even if 'the plan' does not stop the sky from falling. To feel progress is to feel alive, for me.

I haven't been big on New Year's resolutions in the past. As much as I like lists and planning and tracking I don't like anything compulsory. It seems too forced. That said, I am primed and the timing for my personal Renaissance lines up with New Years. So, brace yourselves. I have a plethora of listing tips and resources coming your way.

Starting with this List Me, Doodle Me from Lobotome. It's an all-inclusive approach to list making.
