Day 1 Continued

Just kidding on that last entry! I thought maybe that would get your curiosity flowing on what the question was! Hee hee - a little Shermie joke for you guys...now I'll continue and I promise not to pull that crap again.



The answer is absolutely true - yes I have absolutely committed this heinous act, but in my defense it wasn't for the wrong reasons. In my life I haven't always had the most confidence in many areas, but in my abilities to do good work, learn quickly and be dependable for my work responsibilities, I must say that I always had a pretty good sense about my capabilities and have actually taken it very seriously. However, there were times when I took on too much and didn't ask for help when I probably should have. The only person who really suffered from that though was me...I basically was a workaholic and probably could still be considered such if I were to allow myself to fall back into those habits. I guess I don't look at it as overestimating what I can do...I just look at it as wanting to do a good job.



This folks, is why I have tried to adopt the opposite style in my life...aim low. Then whatever you do accomplish feels great! I highly recommend it...

See you guys tomorrow...for day 2. I guess I'm sort of copying the "Julie and Julia" idea, but when you have low amounts of focus as I do, having a guideline to follow can only help! Make sure to give comments and, again, the name of the book I am following is "Journal Sparks" by Shery Ma Belle Arrieta-Russ. Join me!

Bye bye -

Day 1

Dudes, some of these are quite thought provoking, not a strong Shermie quality, so I will do my best here.

So, here we are on day 1, question 1...January 1, 2010: Yes.

HAPPY 2010!

Hey Friends!

Happy 2010 - this is going to be an awesome year...I can just feel it in my creaky bones. Or maybe I just feel arthritis - not sure yet.



So here at Life with Shermie, I am going to take on a little project that involves you all. I recently purchased a book called "Journal Sparks" and in it there are 300 topics or questions on which I am going to comment every day - I am just going to comment on them, not actually repeat the questions/topics on the blog, so I hope you guys will find a copy of the book and follow along - but more than anything I hope it inspires you to comment to this blog or even start journaling yourselves! The fun part is that if you don't have the book, you have to try to figure out what the hell I am talking about in my rambling Shermie way, so I guess that could be a little entertaining in its own way...however it works for you! I am excited about it~I hope it's fun for you guys too.



Okay...I'll be back with the first entry...see you soon Shermites!
