How I did it: Well, I put it off, and then put it off a bit more. For me knitting is a very wintery past time. It feels so right to be inside knitting when it is cold and dark outside. Now it is November the knitting season has really arrived and I think that spurred me on.I also said to myself and my boyfriend that I would not start any other knitting projects until I'd finished the socks.I had to 'reverse engineer' the part of the s… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I did three, internships over the last 6 months. One here and two abroad. I looked for placements abroad for which I could get funding, and was lucky enough to get some. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I challenged the gut reactions that I felt towards individuals and to social groups and made explicit to myself the reasons for these reactions. So if I saw someone who sat at the back of the bus in the hoodie I might have said to myself that I felt dislike for the individual because I was worried that they might be an unpleasant person, who might think I was uncool or whatever.

I love the idea of working with animals and still can’t commit to a pet, however things are just too busy at the moment and I don’t feel like I have space in my life for this at the moment. I feel like I already have an outlet for my caring streak at the moment. Maybe one day when I am more available.
Ok, so I’ve listed the books on amazon. A few sold, a few didn’t… actually only one sold. But, hey, I tried. I’m away at the moment so can’t really do much with the rest from afar. I’m going to take this goal off my list…
I love ballet. But I can’t really make the commitment to study it. I don’t really have the time and I worry it might be a bit of a chore if I force it. Maybe one day when I am more emotionally available I’ll be able commit myself to the art . But for now I’m going to cross this off my to-do list. Its not going to happen any time soon and I’m not going to carry on feeling that I should be working on this goal. I’m going to let it go.
