So when I started this blog, I was really motivated.  I was going to change my career, join twitter and tweet.  Get a website ASAP and blog every other day.  But just as fires tend to die out, so did my motivation.  I’m finding that I’m forcing myself to read the next book on my list of business books.  I haven’t watched CNBC in a week.  And I almost completely forgot about this blog.  Twitter? that’s what people who have blackberries use.  I have an old phone that I can barely text with.  That’s not going to last very long. 

But about my motivation to change the way I work?  It’s hard to motivate myself.  Sure, if I had a job I would work, but that’s only because I wouldn’t want to be fired.  And I wouldn’t want to let down the people I was working with.  But at home, it’s much easier to nap while the baby sleeps than work.   Reading a boring book on business in my spare time is not fun.  I almost finished one of the books on my list, and was ready to give it a review on this blog, but I misplaced it, and I have no idea where it is now.  (It’s a library book, so I’ll eventually have to turn the place upside down to find it).   In truth, my second book that I started was not that boring.  I just have trouble picking it up when other things are more enticing.

I have to set goals for myself. 

My first goal: Finish my second book by the end of the week and write a review.
