Share with us here what the three zones are for you and if you haven't done so already name your year!

If MJ Ryan is a new name for you go back down through the forum to read the background to catch up.

For those that don't know, my year is the Year of Art.

Comfort zone: my comfort zone is to keep sketching and doodling, procrastinating and doing other things instead of painting. One reason I stay in this zone is because I have not carved out a space in my home that is for painting. Painting is a messy business. Another is cost. It cost money to buy paper and gesso and paints and varnish and canvas... you get the picture.

Stretch zone: Get over the above and get on with it. Carve out the space and time to concentrate on painting. Paint small paintings. Post these on the internet.

Stress zone: My stress zone would be expanding to larger paintings or even submitting art work to a juried show or festival.

This is my year of organization

comfort zone....writing reminders on post-it notes, picking the same date for all my bills to be due so i dont forget, being okay with digging in a box or drawer looking for something I need

stretch zone...buying a calendar and actually using it for more than a week, actually organize, label and keep organized the drawers and boxes in my closets where i keep things

stress zone...graduating from a calendar to an electronic calendar/organizer and using it, becoming so good at being organized that I could teach someone how to do it too :-)

Hello?!??! Where is everyone today? No one wants to commit to claim their comfort zone, stretch zone, and stress zone for their Year of...?

I don't want to speak for Ray Wattson, but I have a feeling he would tell you to snap out of your comfort zone and share!

Comfort: Enjoying my house as it is...

Stretch: Spending a little money each month on an item of choice

Stress: Hiring a consultant or unloading thousands on new furniture!
