After almost a year of making career plans that have fallen through, and quickly approaching 30, I need to re-evaluate my life. I have been very focused on leaving where I am at, with the idea that happiness will be wherever I end up. Now, I know that until a new path becomes clear, I need to find happiness where I am at, even if where I am at isn’t where I want to be. I do not like the bitter person I am becoming, and finding happiness will help that.

How I did it: I got one of those "learn to knit" kits a year ago, and promptly threw it in my closet. Then this summer, I was dog sitting for 3 weeks and had a lot of free time in the evenings, so I pulled it out, and voila! I would say that this is probably something that you can never say is completely learned, because there are so many facets of it. Read how I did it…
