While I was busy creating a 10-day plan for all of you, I had been negating some homework that had been handed to me. Part of my commitment to personal development in 2012 meant finding a group of people, in this case women, who would hold me accountable and challenge me to take my dreams and aspirations to the next level.

One of our exercises to be presented early in 2013 was to write and share a personal manifesto with the group. We were told that we could present it in any manner we wanted. In keeping with my desire to create more mechanisms of accountability in my life, I have decided, that in addition to my mastermind group, I would share it also, with all of you.
