YES - it would be great if there was a social media site for working on big rocks that was every bit as fun and engaging as twitter and facebook. If that site could also make healthy food taste as good as dessert and generate instant motivation for working out - well, that would be priceless! ;-) Kristi – thanks so much for the comment!

It definitely falls in line with what I have been noticing about myself. I recently realized I spend so much time on that wonderful thing called facebook, and not really for any particular reason. (It almost feels like an addiction.) But the big projects in my life I am facing, the really important ones to my life and my goals, get very little attention. I am going to actively try to reduce my time on relative meaningless activities, and try to focus more time on the big things, my "big rocks". Wouldn't it be great if we had some sort of social media like web-page that was all about our goals and "big rocks" that was just as easy to spend hours on like we do with the popular social media sites?

Maybe a forum or something similar - I need to look into that, because I think feedback is SO important, especially for newbies to the writing game (in my case, fiction is a whole new world to me - but I love the idea of being able to just write, let ideas flow, and see where it takes me, you know? But, to your point, prioritizing and setting aside specific time to tackle things is important, and something I really need to work on.
