Blonde Ambition

Ambition (noun): desire to achieve a particular end (Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary)

I’m giving myself, and this blog a fresh start. Everyone needs one once in awhile, don’t you think? So, I revamped the look of the blog, and I’ll be focusing on my ambitions for my life.

So, what are my ambitions?

Money, for one. I don’t need a lot of money. I’m a simple kind of girl. I don’t need or want a lot. But I would like enough to be able to pay off some bills so I can quit my part time job. Working two jobs is wearing me down fast.

I suck with money, so this one is going to be hard for me.

I would also like to be a (successful) writer.

I named this blog Blonde Ambition before I really knew what I wanted it to be about. I just liked the play on words (blind ambition)…and I’m blonde.

I could have joined the Boundless Living Challenge to motivate me to attain my goals. I considered doing that. But I’m not a very sociable person most of the time. I have my moments, but for the most part I don’t like feeling like I have to participate in things. And I can be very self-absorbed which makes me feel guilty when I don’t feel like I’m supportive enough for others in the group.

Okay, so my goals are to gain financial freedom and to work harder at my writing. Lucky for me, they’ll go hand-in-hand. The more successful I become at writing, the more money I’ll make, which will enable me to quit my part time job and focus on becoming even more successful as a writer.

So for the rest of this week, to help achieve my ambitions, i am going to:

1. Keep a log of every cent I spend
2. Submit my two Demand Studios articles
3. Write one article to submit to a magazine

That’s a pretty good start, don’t you think?
