Make 2009 My Best Year Yet

Woooop :)
I’m going to transform myself into an entirely new person. Goodbye 2008 me!

2008 was probably the worst year of my life. You know how you have moments and you suddenely realise you’ve done nothing, and in fact you know deep down that it’s up to you to change your life? Not sure if that makes sense but the other day I was really thinking about my life and where I’m going. I realised I haven’t been following my dream (to be a musician.) I have a bass guitar but I hardly play. Anyway, I only started thinking about this when I saw a bus go past that said ‘Sydney.’ It made me think how amazing it would be if my dream came true and I travelled the world. It’s strange how something as little as that can really make you step back and look at your life.
So, I’ve realised that 2009 is going to be a great opportunity for me to get back on track despite what has happened in the past. I am NOT going to dwell on the past ANYMORE. What’s done is done, I can only look forward to my future and make choices to make my dreams come true. So I aim to do these things in 2009:

-Play bass everyday. I’ve already made a timetable to make sure I play for at least an hour a day. This is going in my room to make sure I don’t let me dream slip away.
-Stop dreaming and start doing. I’ve dreamed about my future for so long I need to actually start doing things to make this happen.
-Exercise more. Haven’t been doing this and I think I will feel more energetic if I do this.
-Get my braces off and really look after my teeth.
-Make the most of every opportunity.
-Do my best at TAFE.
-Keep saving so when I turn 18 I can go to Europe.
-Really BELIEVE IN MYSELF. I’m going to really try and do this. I know I am capable of doing things but sometimes I just don’t have the courage to do it. Repeating mantras will help me; I’m going to put some up on my wall in my room soon.
-Be more creative. I know I’m a really creative person and doing creative activities makes me happy, so I thought I should do this more often.
-Get my L’s.
That’s all I can think of right now.
I really can’t wait for 2009 :-)
