12 For 11
Y'all know how computer pictures go - everything is backwards BUT you get the point. |
However this year as Mike and I planned our next BIG art project - we are creating an arts project out of our New Year's Lists this year. I will show you guys how it comes out! Anyways, as I was reading through my list and doing my daily devotional an IDEA HIT ME!
I am going to create a 12 FOR 11 list (so I have to add two more items) and each month that word will be my theme. Every day, I will research the word, whether in the bible, read a book that deals with the subject, watch a movie, scour the dictionary, etc. and I will also attach an action to the word. For instance, I have decided this month is JOY (growth will be next month). This month, I will focus on finding out the meaning of joy (definition), finding out the meaning for me, and doing things that bring me joy!
That way, I have a quantitative and qualitative way to measure my year's success. Did I find the meaning of my 12 for [20]11? Did I truly live them out? Well, I will keep y'all informed on this list - please, keep me informed on your 2011 list! I love to know what people do... if you write out resolutions? Do you stick to them? What does it look like for others.
