Great Expectations

"Write your goals down on a piece of paper and look at them at odd moments throughout the day. Sometimes you work best without specific aims but today you must focus on the essentials, and nothing else."

 O.K. Here goes:

1) I am going to win the lottery, and pay off all my debts.

2) I am going to drive to Rhode Island with four cats.

3) I am going to be 29 years old again and star next to Nathan Fillion in Castle.

In preparation for achieving my goals, I'm going to the corner Citgo station and buy some lottery tickets. Then I'm going to buy 400 cans of Fancy Feast. This is what it will take to feed four cats for three months. 

Then I am going to watch re-runs of all four seasons of Castle. Beckett, watch out. Next season, he's all mine.

"Before you splash out on something shiny and new ask yourself if you really need it. If the answer is "no" then you would be wise to give it a miss. You'll only hate yourself later for wasting your money."

"Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny."

With three Cartier watches, two Rolexes, a Blancpain, two gold Bulovas and numerous vintage platinum and diamond cocktail watches, do I really need this over-sized fashion watch I saw at Nordstroms while I was waiting to see the latest movie I was in? Probably not. But... sigh. I want it.
