I suspect this would be a tight schedule for me, but then I don't have the stamina I used to have; nor can I operate under pressure like I used to. I agree with Marnie's comments and I am pleased that you have considered what she is saying about forgiving yourself for failures or things happening that are beyond your control. That being said, however, I will spin my office chair and cheer for you, in Brenda Leyland style, when you complete your novel. Blessings on your project, Susan. Thanks for sharing.

Definitely I will not beat myself up when something doesn't go the way *I'd* planned it to, but I hadn't considered rewards for success. I will give that some thought!Susan Barclayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12668380401591029520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-26546984973776255572016-01-30T16:26:24.765-07:002016-01-30T16:26:24.765-07:00thanks for your project.

Great job setting up your goals into manageable pieces. I trust you've given yourself permission to "fail" when something God-designed interrupts, and have set in place rewards when you successfully avoid man-designed interruptions. 12 weeks is very "seasonal" so seems like a good way to break up the year. Thanks for sharing this wisdom - I am excited to celebrate your advancements with you!Marnie Pohlmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07338321752143838051noreply@blogger.com
