10th Annual Groundhog Day Resolutions!

2018-02-02 06:00:00

Its that time of year again. The 10th attempt at creating life-long habits for myself. I’ve discovered that right after the end of the year holidays I am not mentally or physically capable of sticking with resolutions for the upcoming new year. I need a break so I take the whole month of January off to reflect and plan.

So the kickoff is today on 2/2! My resolutions, goals and life-changing habits are listed below. These are not to be confused with items on my “F*%k It List”. I will check in very month and then review my progress. Next check-in is on March 3 (3/3). After that will be 4/4, 5/5 and so on. Here we go:

Fun-

Get another tattoo

More camping

More skinny dipping

Learn Spanish more fluently

Join a book club

50 Books a year challenge

Snail mail friend

Volunteer

Fitness-

Kickboxing

Self-defense

Yoga

More 5 & 10k obstacle course racing

Consistent training

Consistent nutritional training

Hashing

Hiking

Geocaching

Meditation

Creative-

Complete my book

Photo essay on a topic I am passionate about

Video log every month

Leave inspirational notes everywhere

Year in photos album

Shoot more film

Find my muse

DAM

See you back here on 3/3 for the first review.

2018 Photo Goals

2018-02-03 06:00:00

Just like my Groundhog Day resolutions, I need photography goals. I know that I shoot from the hip but a part of me needs more as well. The following goals are in no order other than what is in my head.

Finish this website. Streamline it and make it professional again.

Organize, once and for all, the Archives.

Shoot more film. My Holga is collecting dust and I am neglecting her.

Re-define who I am as a person and then translate this to my photography

What is the purpose of my photography? I’ve asked and received mixed results.

Add emotional impact to my work.

Continue to share my knowledge, to learn and to grow from my peers such as the Texas Shooters and Shots photography groups
