ideas behind new blog

So I read this blurb about a book (written by the host of The Amazing Race...did you know he's a Kiwi?) called No Opportunity Wasted or NOW.

I like it. I'm going to buy it. I'm sure its just another of lifes little books that tell you how to take advantage of your life and make the most of it.

I want to live by that motto. I live in this amazing place, New Zealand, yet sit on my ass most of the time doing nothing. I'm so LAZY. I'm the FIRST to admit it. I LOVE to be active and do stuff but I seem to need a motivation or friend to do it with.

I need to be in the 'mood' to start walking and am going to try to start... but again, I'm not going to make myself upset, depressed, whatever if it doesn't happen right away. Maybe once a week to start. Maybe the three times a week was too much. I'm not a fan of winter and getting out there is ick for me. I hate it.

More so than that... I really need to get on a sleep schedule. And even if I'm tired as all heck get out of bed. I need to stick to it. Maybe take Oscar out in the pram...as I seem to like walking better when I'm not alone. Hmm, I dunno.

This is just a thought. My first thoughts. But really, this blog is going to be about my journey in NOT WASTING the opportunities I have. Am I able to get in shape? Am I able to make friends? How does my move go? Do I do those things on my list?

This is where I'll talk about it. Probably. Just because I feel like everyone that reads the other blog doesn't want to read the jibberish that I always write. So read, if you'd like, don't read if you don't want to. Its up to you. I'm going to try to live by a No Opportunity Wasted mentality and see where it gets me. I'll start small. For the next week.... and see where that gets me. And go from there.
