Will I "do a Don Quixote” in 2009?

Probably inspired by the Don Quixote case study that we discussed in the Leadership class recently, I have come up with a seemingly “crazy” resolution for myself for 2009. This year I have decided to go beyond mundane (yet seemingly do-able) resolutions such as finding a “perfect” job, reducing x kilos from my heavy frame, living a more balanced life, joining the gym, blah, blah, blah.

At the expense of possibly “doing a Don Quixote” in having larger-than-life (and beyond-reality) objectives, I have decided that I will move ahead with my long term dream of writing a book! “I will by the end of 2009 try and come up with a plot/story line/character details for my book.”

Though I have been dreaming of initiating this for a while, and despite having a “vague” idea of what I want to write, I have not done much about this “dream.” Hence I am putting it down on my blog so that I am committed to moving forward on this.

This may be one of my zillion dreams……but what is life without one anyways?
