Do you ever feel like you’re spinning your wheels without gaining any traction? Yep, I’m hard on myself too. Sometimes making a list can help put a grip on reality. Before going to bed tonight, I challenge you to reflect back on 2016 and list all of your personal accomplishments from 2016.
Here are some of the oasis marks for my year:
January 10th, I became re-certified as a Lifeguard.
February 1st, my comic strip was copyrighted.
February 18th - March 4th: I became immersed in a self-directed M.C. Escher project. It gave me so much energy and joy. You can view it here:

April 11th I launched “Suits and Guarders” on Go Comics Sherpa.

April 30th I participated in the U.S. Masters Spring Nationals.
In May, Lifeguard Times Online Jobs Fair featured four of my cartoons about Liz and her first days at work.
I taught 18 sessions of swim lessons throughout the summer and fall.
In the months August through December, I entered six illustration/cartoon contests, started as an assistant swim coach for a year round swim team and got back in the water competitively.

I did get a re-post on Instagram of the Falkirk Wheel by RMJM, a world renowned architecture firm.
And…..I completed 100 comic strips this year.
Normally, humor is the subject matter for my blogs. Motivating blogs aren’t quite as comfortable, since I always imagine people reading and commenting, “Young whipper-snapper, what does he know?” Anyway, the list thing really helps me. I hope you found some hidden gems in your review of 2016.
Happy New Year everyone!
