So last night the ball dropped and it is officially a new year. A great time to get started on our 365 project, or if you are not ready, choose to do nothing, and use today as the first of many days to be abbreviated. Don't feel any pressure to start right away if you are not ready. It will not matter in the long run....trust me!

Maybe today should be a day to gather your thoughts about the theme of you book. Are you doing random happenings, your favorite things, babies first year, or a compilation of things in your past. There are so many possibilities. Or it would be great fun to do a month to month themed book, where each month has a different focus. If so, decide what this first month of the year will be dedicated to.

Or start out simple by just getting organized. Go out and buy a new notebook to do your journaling in, or take some snapshots of what the new year in your world looks like, without any idea how you may use it later on.

Start by writing some journaling. Possibly your first entry will be about how you brought in 2010, or your thoughts about what the new decade will bring. Resolutions, new beginnings, things to avoid, what you rose to in the morning, even if it is dirty dishes from the night before (actually, that would make a great photo).

Start out this project with what you feel comfortable doing. Today I want you thinking, no matter where you are at on understanding the project, just get your brain focused on the next days, all 365, what ever they may bring.
