[...] the DYL series. I loved her intention to eat dessert (it’s right up there with Brooke’s intention to drink wine, if you ask me). Why not order something sweet to share with [...]

@Laina: Thanks for the great compliments! Although, my writing prof in college told me there was TOO MUCH of my personality in my writing. But I can’t help it. Cheers!

@JessicaDeal: Thanks for retweeting my entry and I hope you were inspired!

@Rachel: Love your blog! And thanks so much for the compliment. So happy that you enjoyed reading and walked away with something positive. Go get your read on!

@Powered by Tofu: Loving the list life! And to everyone else, PoweredByTofu’s 101 in 1001 goal list is what inspired me to do my own version. Check out her list; I dare you to not be amazed!

@Julia(Color me Green): Thanks for your insight on my Drink Wine intention. Actually, I usually wait to poor myself a glass after I’ve accomplished the other important things in the evening. It helps me wind down.

@Jessica: I’m glad you enjoyed it!

What a great post, I can certainly relate.

I’m a new follower to your blog and look forward to reading more!

i agree with Laina that i really enjoyed this Design your Life. although i have to disagree with the glass of wine as a stopover before taking on other things after work, because i end up too lazy to do anything once i start on the wine path…

Yay for list-makers! I’m doing the 101 in 1,001 Days list (actually I’m almost done with my 1st 1,001 days). Love seeing other people’s “life lists”.

This has been one of my favorite DYL’s to date.

I particularly love the part about reading everything. After starting my blog, it shed light on the sheer breadth of information and generally cool and even lovely things there are out there. I read, stumble, and grow every day. Knowing stuff in general is such a graet virtue.

99 goals in 999 days… that’s amazing. I can barely achieve 1 goal in 365 days. This is an inspiring post. Thanks so much for sharing. I’ve retweeted it so other people can get inspired.

I love reading these each week, but this is one that I really enjoyed because I feel like I really relate to a lot of these intentions, but you also get a great sense of Brooke’s personality. I especially love Brooke’s intention to Drink Wine. Nothing is better after a long day then a nice glass of red wine and some time to chill/reflect(and maybe add a little dark chocolate?).

Go Explorin’ and the Dream it. Share it. Do it. are both things that I have started to embrace myself within the past few years – which has led to many adventures and even a few “WTF was I thinking??” moments along the way, but I have no regrets – can’t ask for much more than that!
