whatever. This will never happen. When I can afford First Class if i give up my seat it will only be to make someone else happy – not to challenge myself or remind myself. I wanna buy a helicopter instead so this goal had to get the boot.

How I did it: I found a few magazines that I knew would welcome my expertise. Then I emailed or called their editors. I sent them a sample of my writing too. I haven't yet tried the bigs - they want a query. Pick small or medium or regional publications first - unless you have a following already. Read how I did it…
So – I met this cool guy with a bright smile at the store.
He gave me his card and I looked up his site.
toolstolife.com
and I joined the site because i figured—what the heck maybe it can change my life!
So here I am 7 days later and I have been getting out of bed happily when the alarm clock goes off. you can do it too!
in the past: this was me too! I cut n pasted from jazaminax below:
Now I rarely pick up. Blame it on school, or work, or only having a car charger to where my phone is always almost dead, but I do feel bad. I’m not trying to avoid anyone… Just basically don’t feel like picking up more often than I used to. But I’m going to change that
NOW: I answer almost always!! And after a month people stopped saying. WOW!!! I cannot believe you answered!!!
yay!
