Goals for 2012

These are my intentions for 2012 (my best year yet!)

-to know and feel my goodness regardless of what "obstacles" I may encounter (I put that in quotes because we all know that obstacles are really there to teach us something...!)
-to meet my man, my life partner, and begin our amazing romance :)
-to create and record an amazing album with my wonderful producer Jonathan Baker
-to play gigs of my music that inspire my listeners
-to book 10 national commercials
-to extend and strengthen my community of love, friends, teachers and healers
-to book wonderful film and television roles
-to have fun performing onstage regularly
-to establish a base of tutoring clients in walking distance or short driving distance from my new home in Los Feliz

I welcome your insight, constructive advice or assistance with any of these, and I'd love for you to share YOUR goals here in the comments!
