Excerpt: Letter to myself, dated 12.31.13
You finished grad school and you kept making progress at your job. You pursued your favorite artistic activities. You even finally broke your exercise rut...But there's always so much room to do better. Try more. Take risks. Fuck around less. Love more. Take more photos, judge less, keep your promises and start your own fucking business.
I'm doing Embrace13, which is a lot like the Reverb projects, only instead of looking back on the year, you look forward to the year.
I won't share all of my exercises, but I thought this one was particularly fun. Write yourself a letter dated 12.31.13 looking back on 2013. Write about all the awesome things you did.
The idea is that having those things in mind, the things so important you wrote about them in a letter to yourself, will help you focus your attention, energy and efforts throughout the year.
I will let you know how that goes...feel free to participate, I'd love to read other people's thoughts.
