I have decided to write a book.
It will not be about personal finance. For lack of a better term, it will be a spiritual book. It may or may not ever see the light of day, but it’s something that I feel that I must do. I’m going to try to write a chapter a month, and have the book finished by this time next year. When it is finished, I’ll let you guys know.
I have decided to try to encourage 5 people per day.
Now, I like to think of myself as a pretty positive guy, but I really want to do a better job of encouraging other people. I’m not just talking about words, but I’m talking about finding unique ways to encourage the people in my life. And, 5 is just a target. I’m not going to “hold” myself to 5 people, and I’m CERTAINLY NOT going to be fake. Instead, I’m going to look for opportunities, each day, to encourage those around me.
If you know me in real life, prepare to be encouraged! And, you better encourage me “back”! Rock on.
I have decided to learn to putt.
I love to play golf. I’ve been playing once, maybe twice a month. With summer coming, I hope to play a bit more. I hit the ball well, and I am a pretty decent short-iron player, but I really struggle with the flat stick. My plan is to head to the golf supply store Tuesday, to be fitted for a new putter. After that, I’ve scheduled a lesson with a local pro, and I plan to do whatever he says to do, so that my putting will improve.
The last round I played, I “gave away”, by my count, four shots, due to the fact that I failed to make four three-foot putts. Missing those short putts just killed my score. I’m excited about taking the lesson, my first in more than a decade, and I’m also excited about my new (budgeted-for!) putter. In a few weeks, I’ll let you know how things are going.
