Progress Report 26 - Half Way?!

How can we be half way through the year already?! Unbelievable. I was just looking over my list from the beginning of the year and have realized how much my priorities have changed in just six months. I am also feeling a bit forlorn at the thought that maybe I overreached in my list. Perhaps I have only lost my focus, but how to get it back, is the question. I don't feel as though my desires are any different, but the energy it takes to keep up the pace seems to be leaving me.
What have I accomplished in six months from my 2010 list?

1. Write a business plan for Designed by Row - I took a couple of seminars which pointed me in the right directions, but haven't actually done a formal plan. I have also read a couple of books that, I feel, were more of a benefit to the actual running of DbR.
   
2. Plan a trip to Scotland for spring 2011 - Haven't done a thing. Too depressing at the moment. This type of trip will probably have to be put off for a few years.
   
3. Complete 2 semesters of classes - I think I have killed this idea. I spent a year trying to complete one semester and didn't hit that goal. Now I am overdue and screwed.
   
4. Complete renovations of studio and move in - Interior renovations are complete and I am working out of the studio now. The outside has not been done yet, but hopefully before winter.
   
5. Pay off my computer - not even close
   
6. Pay off my credit card - nope
   
7. Take a family vacation - It's not looking good for this one either, but perhaps late summer.
   
8. Plant cedar hedges - Not happening this year.
   
9. Bring in regular freelance or web income - What I failed to realize when I was writing this list, was that if this one came to fruition, I would have very little time for everything else. However, I have had some regular work coming in. Not a lot, but it is steady.
   
10. Wainscoting and new paint for my kitchen - I definitely have not given up on this one. It takes money, which has been a bit hard to come by lately.
    

My goal for the next half of the year is to try to stay focused. I am too easily discouraged and part of growing my box is to break away from old habits that hold me back. The negative self-talk has got to stop. Life is what I make it. Obviously I need to get back to posting more often as it will help keep moving forward and not just treading water.
