Third time's the charm (hopefully)!!!

With the world's changes over the last year or so, I decided it is time for a new me. Not in a dramatic or a drastic makeover way. But the times are unique. There is more, not less violence around us. There is less of resources, not more. Oil prices rocketed to record highs and stock prices spiralled down to new lows. Unemployment struck the close and dear, while foreclosures struck far and wide. Advancements were made in diplomacy, and governments were taken to task for human rights violations. Families pulled together to solace at times of distress. Large cities were held hostage and bombed. All this while, many reformative thoughts have flooded my mind. Writing is certainly a relaxing activity. So, while struggling to cope with these fickle times, I decided to start blogging again. Yeah...where have we heard that before? A large part of my life, I was plagued with delivering less than I promised. With the naivety of a 15 year old, I have jumped to accept challenging tasks and then drawn schedules without scoping out the work correctly. Am I alone? Hmmm...probably not. But a change is in order. There must be a decision to try and then a decision to execute that decision and then a decision to align the daily work to allow me to execute that decision and finally, execute that decision. I think I am at the first box of the decision chain. It is a start..a firm start! Will I survive the challenge?? We'll see :)
