I'd like to wish everyone a Happy New Year for 2010! Wow, not only have we started a brand new year, but we've also headed into a new decade. I'm really looking forward to what this new year will bring. The feeling of new beginnings is in the air around my house.
One thing I can bring to you today is a brand new wallpaper. I've finished up success wallpaper #78, which is entitled "Decide".
This past week, I tweeted this quote on Twitter.com, which really seemed to get picked up and retweeted (shared) by others. After thinking about what this quote by Emerson had to say, I thought that it would make for a good motivational wallpaper. So, I decided to see what I could do with it. Looking around on the Internet, I came across this image (see bottom for source credit) of this boat headed out into sea. I felt it embodied the idea of a person making up his/her mind to travel out and become (or accomplish) what they had already decided on doing. Anyway, I really liked what I saw and put the two together. So that's the quick background on this wallpaper.
The other thing I love about releasing this one now is that we are at the beginning of a new period of time. This is a time for new decisions to be made for how we live our lives. I know I can look back at this wallpaper as a great reminder for me to keep the decisions I've made to accomplish. Using this as a tool for inspiration to keep those decisions going can help me achieve my goals. I hope and wish this for you as well.
