Usually, I don't, but I decided to do them this year. And I know how hard it is to stick to these goals. Especially long-term ones then the short term. Ugh. Even I have problems with short term ones. Thanks to my attention span being that of a goldfish. Getting worse every year it seems.

I know what you mean about the creative muse. My creative muse has been slowly waning over the last couple of years, and I don't want it to wane. As Jack London says, "You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it like a club." And I have been sitting on my butt and just sulking.

I always been an all-or-nothing kind of person. Like if I can't finish something now, I won't. I tried to do that you know do things in chunks day by day. I tried that this year. Never could get it right because my mind is like: "You can't write all of it now? What is the point? You know you will forget it tomorrow if do you wait. Then you lose your place then your motivation. Oh? Want to outline it? Oh okay. You lost the idea. Oops."

My brain is hell, sometimes. No, all the time. Yep. So I'm just not going to fight my brain. Well, not on everything, anyway. I realized how I am, and as much as I love to a pantser, I have to be a plotter. And stick to it. Crossing my fingers this year. No more daydreaming. Must take those dreams and turned them into reality.
