It all begins with a decision
I have been thinking alot lately and I am ready to make some changes in my life. Today I made the decision to start by implementing simple alterations in my daily activities to better position me for making the most of the time and energy available to me.
Doing little things such as beginning each day with an open heart and practicing the art of forgiveness have been shown to improve the health and happiness of those who invest in themselves in this way. I am making a vow to myself to integrate these aspects of focused awareness into my everyday life.
Staying on point
To help me stay on top of my goals and moving in the direction of achieving my aspirations, I have decided to make a short post each day to my steemit blog that I will call 'Dear Life'.
I look at it as a way of directing my energy where I want it to go and also to help me document my progress. If I am able to inspire others as they have done for me, or help someone else who is also making lifestyle changes & improvement, that will be a wicked awesome bonus!
My observations, inspirations (& honorable mentions)
have been coming to me from many people & places, (including but not limited to all of my followers and those I am following).
Among this crowd there's a select few of which I have the pleasure of interacting with that I would like to take this moment to give some extra Steemit LOVE for having already made a lasting impression & positive impact in #mysteemitlife thus far. Thank you!!

The 5 Goals I have set & their 'Target Dates'
Here's a few things that I would like to establish/achieve by the end of this year....
- Begin each day with meditation; open my heart, clear my mind, practice forgiveness & set schedule for myself.
- Reach 150 STEEMPOWER. I am presently at 75.920 so this is a BIG challenge for me in a short amount of time, but I am up for it.
- Post 4 x's each day from today through December 31. This is mainly to help me with my self discipline and consistency but also to help me reach my other goals.
- To curate expansive content (read, comment on, upvote & resteem 10 posts that inspire, enlighten or educate me in some way every day.) This will help me to learn & earn at the same time. I love STEEMIT!!
- To prepare & position myself mentally, emotionally, physically & financially to be ready & able to purchase/start a complete internal cleanse in January 2018.

That is sooooo strange!!! If I go to my reply tab I can see that you wrote, but I can't read it. When I click to see it, its gone and just shows me the video. All I can see is "I am glad you asked me about my goals." :(
I wish I could read the full reply. I really appreciate your taking the time to share with me Captain. Lots of love my friend!!

In a previous reply (that I think was lost) I explained how the bible tells me that I need to also be concerned with the wellfare of the animals that I will have on my future farm. So I have bee looking through an orchard supply publication and placing a 'X' next to future items that I would like to own. There was 10 different varieties of blackberries for sale, and I read through the product discriptions and tried to choose a bush that I could go gather food from, but also that chickens could get to.

You are awesome my friend! I love the way your heart shines and your mind works :) You remind me alot of my aunt @thereikiforest. We (the family, but April is pretty much leading the charge) are in the process of (slowly but surely) setting up a homestead, too. No chickens or anything like that yet (or for while) we're still working with all the plants and trees while getting situated and acquainted with the land and all she lovingly offers in preparation for the next steps.
I really like that you draw your wisdom and inspiration from the Bible and share it in a kind way. You are awesome captain! Hugs!!!
I hope you have a great day!!!
