Wishing everyone a brilliant New Year!

Did you make any New Year’s resolutions?  I don’t make resolutions preferring instead to make goals. Here are some tips for successful goal setting.

• Write down your achievable goals.
• Focus on them on a regular basis because as our lives become busy and distractions abound, goals can easily be swept under the carpet and forgotten until next New Year.
• Write about how it will feel to achieve your goals. You will gain the most benefit from this exercise if you associate happiness, fun, and pride to your goals.
• Identify why they are important to achieve.

It is the journey of fulfillment that helps us to build muscle to overcome obstacles and to keep going. Exciting goals can lead to an exciting life! Make 2012 the year you refuse to plod along in your life.
