Right word... Right time

It's Monday and I was thinking I need to introduce you to a very new and important person in my life but I will do it on a later post because this is a good New Year thought!

My SwtHt and I each have a new toy... an iPad2!  My game playing has increased 70%!  A new way for me to slow down my day (at the end <grin> no game playing during of course or I'm hooped!).  The iPad effect on him is he is reading heaps!!!  Who knew?  He's a natural learner and absorber.  The iPad makes his books more accessable and organizes them all in one place.  This, my friend, is how my guy's mind works.  The benefit for me?  He is my best referral recommending articles etc.  Last week he hit it on the head when he first taught me what he is learning from an article by Peter Bregman, 'Your Problem Isn't Motivation'  (it's follow through!)  I've been letting this principle simmer and I think it will be my buzz quote this year.  I am a thinker and even though it is my strength to 'think ahead', I can 'overthink' things. Yup... the other side of said strength and gets me in trouble regularly.   If you get snagged in the thinking tank, like me, check it out.  If you don't.  I would like to hang with you.

Sometimes you say it... Sometimes you show it

It's official!  Check it out!  On Dec 29, 2011 my goal to raise $200 to provide a Dalit family with a micro loan was accomplished with an extra $10 to throw in for good measure!  So many wonderful friends coming alongside.  Great things are never done alone.  To all of you who spread a pocket of love through purchasing a Love Letter... Thank you from me and from a Dalit family on the other side of this very earth.

This does not shut down the LOVE LETTER shop. It helps me think through what other project I want to work toward!!!  Keep watching!
