How I did it
How to learn to swing dance
It took me
1 month
It made me
jump, jive & wail!

How I did it: I saw an introductory offer for four private lessons at an Arthur Murray's studio. I learned all the basics (swing, cha cha, rumba, tango, foxtrot, waltz) in about a month and could easily follow a partner with a strong lead. Most dance studios offer a combination of private and group lessons as well as practice sessions where you can dance with other students. For years thereafter, I would learn advanced variatio… Read how I did it…

Make a "Book of Possibilities" (read all 3 entries…)
Done 10 months ago

It’s more of a workbook than a vision board. I am keeping some of my favorite found photos in there along with articles from magazines. I pulled a lot of yoga sequences from my Yoga Journals in the event that I ever get back into a personal practice.

Make a vision board! (read all 2 entries…)

My vision board is pretty up to date with all my latest dreams, including the gypsy caravan and horses.

Make a "Book of Possibilities" (read all 3 entries…)
Pocket book 10 months ago

I made a binder sized possibility book, but I want something I can carry around with me all the time. I came up with the idea of printing out playing card sized photos of my desires (mostly pics I found on flickr that haven’t been spaceballed), laminating them, punching a hole and putting them on a key or binding ring. But then I thought it would be easier to put pics in a brag book along with inspirational sayings, affirmations, etc. Keeping the vision alive! So important…Oh, and also the list of my 43Things.
