New Year's Resolutions

Can you believe that it is already February? Is it just me or is 2012 moving faster than 2011 did?

A lot of people are very serious about their resolutions. They proudly announce theirs, but we rarely hear how they are doing a few months in. I don't usually like to say when I do have them because the accountability can be scary. Im feeling brave today, so I'll throw mine out there. I figure it is time to check in with you and see how you are doing. What kind of resolutions did you make and how are you doing so far?

Even though I don't make them at the New Year, I am constantly trying to do better at certain things. These are usually the top ones on my list.

1. Drink more water. Its great for your skin!
2. Get more (beauty) sleep.
3. Work out every day.
4. Get organized and stay that way.
   

This year I had some big things on my list. My list: get a new website out, explore more speaking opportunities, incorporate more videos into my marketing. So far I have touched on two of those. I had the opportunity to speak with a panel of my fellow professionals just last week at The Special Event show in Tampa, Florida. What an experience!

I used this as a deadline to get my website updated, since it had not been updated in 2 years. With the help of some amazing friends of mine (mostly Julie Renee Photography), I got phase 1 of my site up and out in a week. Thanks, Julie, I could not have done it without your encouragement.

It isn't perfect, which is why I haven't made a huge deal of it yet. Once phase 2 goes up, you will hear me screaming it from the rooftops. Be patient. It is coming soon. But for now, here is the sneak peak. What do you think? Check it out at www.emilyhudspeth.com. You can even leave me a little comment, click the bottom left "leave a comment" box.

Man, getting back on the daily blogging schedule is tough! Thanks for your patience. I haven't down so great with those first four that I listed, I think this month I will be better! I will be back to posting daily and look for videos soon! I hope you are doing well in 2012 so far. Keep me posted and let me know if I can help you with your goals.
