Why do you want to do this?

To let the people I care about know that I am thinking of them and that I make time for them.

What three things will you need to make this happen?

Calling on the phone more to friends and family....less internet connection...more physical connection.

Acknowledge friends and family more on holidays and birthdays. Make an effort to acknowledge them with calls, cards, gifts, time, etc.

Visit family and friends that are not local to me more. Make time and effort to get out and visit and get to know. Let kids get to know there extended family.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

Making the time and putting forth the effort!

This is such a great goal too.  It's awesome that you've already taken steps to connect with those people who are important to you.  Another friend of mine set a goal to have an actual telephone conversation with a different 'far away friend' once a week for a month. She loved going through that goal too.  Just taking the time to write out this goal and make 'connecting' a priority in your life is fantasti progress.  Who's next on your list?
