That really should be measured for economic calculations, I bet that number is way in the billions. Oh, and how about exploring the cost per load ratio too!

I've always maintained that the best place to meet men is outside of the men's room...Being Mom to two now adult boys, is that an oxymoron?, I've hung around many a men's room over the course of the years. Trouble is that I didn't appreciate it when I had to do it on a regular basis...

I love your gym analogy ... Anyone who goes regularly to a gym HATES those first 2-3 weeks after "New Year's Resolution Day" when hoards of overambitious but undercommitted folks come in determined to get into shape in approximately 3 workouts ... I think you also hit on something else great ... that we SHOULD get excited about making a big change in our lives ... but we should channel that excitement into seeing the "bite size" day-to-day results we get along the JOURNEY to those big transformation goals. Great comment Adam!

Go to a gym on January 1 of any given year and it's a mad house of people who have vowed to workout 5 hours a day every day of the week and lose 30lbs. in 3 weeks. By the end of January they're gone from the gym and haven't reached a single goal. It's great to set ambitious goals, but they've got to be realistic and then broken down into bite sized chunks. Enjoy the bite sized chunks, they're tasty. :) I find it useful to keep a journal for pretty much everything that I want to track the progress of. A few years ago I focused on losing weight and kept a journal to track it, and what do you know I met and exceeded my goal. My focus now is to get better at the art of conversation, so I keep a journal on my interactions with people (anyone, not just women). I track my strengths, weaknesses, areas to work on, good interactions, bad interactions, and daily goals to work on. It's not only a good goal, but I'm having a lot of fun doing it. People really are great, but sometimes you've gotta bring them out of their shells. I love starting an interaction with someone that is very droll and boring and by the end of the conversation they're smiling and laughing. I really like the analogy of life being a marathon, not a sprint and use it all the time. As long as your analogizing life to a journey, remember to enjoy the journey and not focus on the destination. We all know what the destination is anyways.
