About This Author

La Bene Vita
I am a professional musician  , worship leader , small business owner , songwriter , aspiring author and freelance nonfiction writer with a chemical engineering degree .
But that's just my resume.
My profile of qualifications is only one of the ways in which I am unique. Here I chronicle my personal and professional goals and my efforts to achieve them. Occasionally I fail. Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

Don't be shocked, but... I may not do NaNoWriMo this year. I haven't decided for sure, but I hate to wait until December to get back to all my other goals. I have a NaNo idea, but it's waited for over a year, so what's one more, when I know I'll have more time next November? I haven't even edited last year's NaNo novel yet. One novel at a time?

 Goal met.
Learn one new cover band song per week.
In progress. Truthfully, I'm nervous that Luis will think I'm a slacker, since we haven't met in a month, and I still hardly know any of the songs we agreed to work on.  I'm more into popular and rock, and not so familiar with this punk stuff.
Launch one new Potbelly song per week.
Goal met.
Write one new original song per month.
Goal met, with "Is This Thing On?" by lyricist Robert Waltz  .
NEW: Launch one new Praise Band song per month.
In progress. I'm leaning toward "Lifesong" because writing my own song would require - you know - writing it. As in, arranging for all the instruments and actually writing the music on paper for the other musicians, not just throwing together a melody and chords on the guitar. I have until next Saturday to decide.
Post at WordPress at least once per week.
Pending.
Write one Textbroker article per week.
Pending.
Resign from Abbott by 6/1/10.
In progress.
Maintain 150.0 lbs.
Goal met.
Weight:  Oops.
Meals:
9:00am FiberOne cereal (2) with milk (2), coffee (1)
12:30pm Chicken noodle soup, English muffin with butter, 1/2 cup ice cream
...and then a whole bunch of party food.  |

I don't know how you do it, but I assume there's magic involved *^*Bigsmile*^* I have really enjoyed this month of planning and preparation for NaNoWriMo and I love how organized it all is. Thank you for hosting a great challenge and for your dedication to helping so many of us prepare with confidence and trepidation for National Novel Writing Month (known to sane folks as 'November' *^*Laugh*^*) at your [Link To Item #1474311]](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Organization-1150.gif)

For your hard work, commitment, talent and innovation in running the October NaNoWriMo Preparation each year, which helps many of us get our scattered thoughts together for November's novel-writing. And also because this badge has ducks on it.](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Leadership.gif)
