My Bookshelf: The Space Between Us
I realized I've been watching TV just to watch TV. If I feel the need to peruse pintrest or Instagram, I'm probably not that into it. So, one of my goals this year, is to replace some of my mindless TV watching with reading.
First book of the year: The Space Between Us by Thrity Umigar
I liked the feeling of this book far more than I actually liked the story or writing ( I actually really did not like her writing style). I did love the way it made me question how I develop relationships. The book left me wanting to truly get to know people, even if it means they will get to know me. I also feel more motivated to listen to people.
Easy read, a little cheesy, but good.
Also, I still watch a lot of TV. We've been watching Sherlock and I am a little obsessed.

Bagua Map: 2014
Every Year I like to create a Feng Shui Bagua Map of my goals. I didn't follow the colors of the Bagua, and I rearranged a few things. So- I guess it's really not a true Bagua Map, but it is an interesting way for me to think about and organize my goals visually.
I got the idea from some blogs that I really love:
Rachel Eastin ( I love the way she lives life. I also used her photo in the upper left corner of my map).
Jane Reaction (She is an awesome graphic designer.)
I've been working on this for a few weeks. I have so many things I'd like to work on and improve, so it was hard to edit my list. This year, I decided to add words. For me, it helps to stay focused on my intention.
I used this template (and switched some things around): HERE
The Bagau categories arranged to my liking: (From top to left- moving to the right):
1. Love and Relationships
2. Illumination and Reputation
3. Health & Well-Being
4. Foundation & Family
5. Abundance & Wealth
6.Creativity & Children
7.Inner Knowledge
8. Career & Life's Journey
9. Helpful People & Travel
Some of my goals are only loosely based on the Bagua categories listed above. You can try and guess the connection between my goal and the category. lol
If you make one, please send me a link! I love to see my friends making these. It's so inspiring.
