Great in '08

Yesterday I actually made it to Karate for the first time in a very very long time. It's good because that means after I finish writing my essay I can get my yellow belt! Yay! Finally! Of course it's a little unnerving that I have to write an essay to get something that I pay money for, but I guess that's just how it works. Surprisingly, my fave Sensei was teaching the class yesterday even though it's not his usual time slot. Lemme tell you, it is HARD to get back into something you haven't done in a month!!! Stuff that I could easily do before, well not so much. But I know it's doable, just a matter of time. Well as always, we had the little prep talk at the end of class. The topic was "I am going to be Great in '08." TO make the long story short, apparently, if you visualize and write down everything that you want to happen to you this year ("no matter how outlandish") and if you believe it, it has a 10x higher chance of happening than if you just want it to happen. He also said something like "goals are just hopes with deadlines" or something like that. So sit down, write down your dreams and aspirations for '08 and then go to step two and go out and make it happen!
