362 days of A- mazingness

I was never a believer in New year resolutions. To be honest, I dont even necessarrily like the idea of "time" and a new "year". Whats another birthday? If we are counting the days we are here, then we are not FULLY living in the moment. And in that moment, really there is no time and space.
However, I DO like the idea of having a new beginning, even if it means now you write 2011 on your checks and not 2010. And instead of resolutions, I think I would like to figure out how I want to be the changes I want be within myself and to others for the next 52 weeks plus infinity. Besides, ALL and any "resolutions" Ive ever set for myself, have ended up in the black hole of resolutions never carried out. How can I (or you) have 362 days of A-mazingness?
Now there are alot of things I want, a great self-fulfilling career in the non-profit sector, a hot bf, a puppy, a place of my own and so on and so on....So how do you connect all those things I want ( which are very tangible by the way) to my new beginning into 2011?
First off, I need to think more positively. I think the bulk of things that transpired in 2010 left a cloud over my head like grumpy care-bear. I totally need a care-bear stare to get out of that frame of mind. Some BIG doors may have closed permananetly this year for me. But windows will open (if they havent already), and I am grateful those doors were ever open in the first place. And if the window doesnt show up, guess what? there is always the doggy door... I had the chance to experience a year that will never be repeated in my life (same goes for you too). I have come to realize I need to be more careful and gracious to the things that happen around me, even if I preceive them negatively, because they are part of me, they are not bad at all. Love and inspiration are around every corner, you just have to be open to see it. So Im positively going to be more positive starting three days ago.
Im going to take more risks. I am a person that tends to take risks, but they are ever so calculated, betting that I will be more happy than sad if I choose to take that risk. But no more. I am going to really focus on putting what I have out there because in the end, I truly have nothing to lose. Well at least as long as I have let go of my pride and ego, I truly have nothing to lose. I have love from friends, family, and a good stickin head on my shoulders.
Lastly, Im going to try to be a better driver.... Yes for any of you that know me... Im not joking. Directions? That may be pushing it but I really need to hone in on some road rage and take a little more time to be a better driver. My stress level will decrease and maybe my friends can let me drive more. But then again, who am I kidding? 2 out 3 aint bad!!!!

What changes can you work on within yourself that will create 362 days of A-mazinginess for you? Maybe a change you can work on with a close friend, spouse, lover, or family? This can be calculated as you go through the year and see if there are any positive changes in your life? But for those of you exercising more, eating healthier, fighting your vices, I hope you stick with it and get the results you are looking for. Change is good if you can help mold the direction of where your destiny might take you.

Lets just check in with each other in 6 months and see how we are doing.... Maybe Ill even pick you up and we can share over some coffee/tea.
