Starting the Path of Positivity for 2020

A new year starts and another chance to look for the positive in life. At Path of Positivity our first theme for the year is character traits. The problem is, certainly speaking for myself, is I think I know what my character traits are but they are not always the same perceptions as other have of me! One thing that my family and friends do agree with is that I endeavour to be crafty, in the creative sense not the devious one! I also like to think that I am organised. Certainly I like to make lists and try to record ideas for future use. So this year I have made myself a crafting notebook to put down the creative thoughts that now and then pop into my head in the hope that they will become reality at some stage during the coming months. It's a plan but it remains to be seen if it works. Watch this space, as they say!

Here are the details for the challenge:

This challenge, our optional twist is a focus on Character Traits. We are all made up of different kinds of qualities that come together to make up our overall character. If you would like to challenge yourself, create a project that helps to portray one or more of your own unique character traits. Examples include: kindness, humour, charity, generosity, integrity, devotion, etc. At the start of a new year, let's learn a little bit more about who you are as an individual.

In order to be considered eligible for this month's prizes, remember that general types of  projects/posts will not qualify for the prizes UNLESS they are also positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some nature. Prizes this month include:

$12 gift certificate from Bugaboo Stamps, our guest sponsor for this month, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.

ONE image (value of $5 or less) from Scribbles Designs, for the post or project that the team deems most inspiring of the bunch based on all qualifying entrants.

Thanks for dropping in. Take care.
