This is Everyday Summer Life

Well I feel like I've been such a stranger here, which is a shame, because I love this blog and I love writing and, well, I need to be more consistent.  Seriously, how many times do I say this and fail? I try mostly to write blog posts that will help you make the most of your everyday life, but I have to say that sometimes I just want to share what's going on in my life.  And I'd like to let you know that there is a real person here behind this blog that does get busy and frazzled…

30 Days to Success: A Step-by-Step Guide to Achieving Success in 30 Days

I've been spending some time lately thinking about goals, success, what it means to be successful, and how on earth I can accomplish my goals this month in order to be successful.  I even wrote a post on why many people fail to achieve their goals or be successful.  All of this thinking causes problems for me.  Like it makes me think.  And then I come up with ideas.  And then sometimes I try my ideas.  Sometimes that's scary.  Ha! This time, though, I think I've had something good come out of all of this thinking, and I wanted to…
