A couple of days until my half century and I’ve been reflecting on some things, specifically, what I want to change and what I want to keep in my life. I’ll keep refining them as the year progresses. Have also jotted down a bit of a wish list.
What do I want to keep?
My work ethic which I think is pretty good.
Keep building on seeing the positives in things
Keep looking for the humourous – stay in touch with the child
Keeping helping people where I can – but increase
Keep anxiety at bay
Stay as physically fit as my body will let me.
What do I want to change?
My propensity to sit at home. I want to see and do more things. I’d like to be somewhere else on New Years Eve next year – Moscow or London or Madrid. I want to make the effort!
I want to be braver with opportunities.
My reprehensible tendency to not ring people back. Get over my phone phobia!
Not let pessimism and defeatist attitudes EVER get a hold of me!
Things I’d Like to Do (aka The Bucket List)
Write an episode/episodes for a quality TV series (like Spooks or Fringe) and have it produced – This is a BIG one for me!
Go to WNBA and NBA games – another big one
Travel (specific destinations in mind but won’t bore you)
Sing in a choir (but only one that does my kind of music – not something stodgy)
Have one of my books adapted for film or TV and actually produced!
