Resolutions, or another idea? (Word of the Year, 2021)

 One of my friends has inspired me (after another too-long hiatus from blogging)... 

Here's her post:

I love the idea, and when she started talking about it over the past while, I realized that maybe this would work better than traditional goal-setting, or resolutions, for me too.

I keep paying for my business license, I keep plodding along making things - but I don't document things enough, and I don't finish what I start - almost ever. A lot of GREAT words that I might use are already on her list - so for this, first go, I'll make sure I find something that doesn't duplicate hers (but still fits).

I know, that whether or not the things I envision and create get done - there can be no product, no end result without

PROCESS

There's a process to building physical strength and stamina - and I'm re-starting a 100-day movement challenge today.
There's a process to getting enough inventory together for the web storefront I keep dreaming about - and it starts with more than just opening the webpage.
There's a process to growing my core textile skills - and I'm grateful for the opportunity to study with Abby Franquemont, and chat with the other students on her Discord.
There's even a process to getting my scattered thoughts onto some page, somewhere - whether it's here, or my Facebook business page, or some other venue. I've started, slowly, by trying to post more on the Loomacy and Lace Facebook page. 

...and once there's more widespread vaccination, and the world opens up? There will be a process to that, too.

I have thoughts, and goals, and dreams - I always have. Maybe by recognizing that I'm a PROCESS person, and honouring that, I'll get further than I have by ignoring it.

I did finish a small item or three last year, and started some that were real firsts for me. Here are some pics.
