Back to work after long weekend...

The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.
-Walt Disney

I am a master dreamer, schemer, plan-maker (what ever you want to call it). I can talk and talk and talk and talk about the things I want to do or might do. But, something always seems to get in the way.

What do you anticipate might hold you back from your goals in 2007? What are your "roadblocks" and how will you over-come them?


I, too, am a master dreamer, schemer, plan-maker and list maker. I love all the planning, writing it down, figuring it out, making charts....but then comes the doing! It's like with vacation, I enjoy the packing list, finding info on the area we are going to, packing everything up almost as much as going on vacation! What will hold me back from my goals this year??? My biggest road block is moving from the list making phase and applying the enjoyment I feel with that to the actual doing phase. Just as in the last two days, I need to go ahead and do it whether or not I feel like it....the feelings will come. I WILL see things thru to completion no matter how I feel. I have way too many projects half done or almost done, but not quite. I don't enjoy this about myself and am setting a goal to finish what I start. As Nike says....."Just Do It".

I could have written your post word for word! What a great goal - finish what you start. I'm going to try that too. Good luck!

I totally understand what you are saying - I always seem to have a lot of partly finished projects - but - to get them finished, need to stop thinking about it and just get it done!!!
