I want to be more consistent with adding new posts to this blog. It's hard to *think* about things to write that others would be interested in. I've decided to stop thinking so much, and write what is on my heart at the time.
I have been *thinking* so hard lately that I haven't gotten much down. Soooo...that is going to change. I'm going to commit to writing a new post every day. They say that doing something consistently for 3 weeks will create a habit that can last a lifetime. So that is my goal...3 weeks of daily posts.
I find that consistency, in any and all facets of life is a necessary factor, not just health and fitness. For instance, I have a really hard time keeping up on laundry. It is the one chore I detest the most. And if I don't have a distraction to get it done, it just doesn't get done. So, recently I started a "load-a-day" rule. The overwhelming chore that consumed my weekends has become an easy, and almost (not quite) exciting part of my day. I can handle 15 minutes/day of laundry. I even fold the load straight out of the dryer!
So, I'm going to take the same mentality about my blog that I took about my laundry. 15 minutes a day is not overwhelming. Starting a blog is difficult: finding the right background, title, explaining yourself in a manner that captures others attention, learning the ins-and-outs.
I think being consistent and outright with my thoughts will make this an anticipated part of my day...even more so than the laundry! :)

I am working on being more consistent with the rhythm of our days. I find that being present, being in each moment, allows me to address whatever is occurring with a more consistent and gracious heart. When our days are calm, predictable, and rhythmatic, consistency follows. It's when chaos and toddler-dom take over that we all end up in trouble. ;)
Nice, Brooke! Thanx for sharing...those toddler days certainly can be challenging...but are so very precious. I love your rhythmic mentality!
