Happy Friday everyone and welcome to the very last day of the new year! All the best to you and your family for the upcoming season. You have much to be grateful for you made it another year, alive, with those you love and you get to share all of this more quickly on social sites like Gather.com and Facebook.com. How fun has that been?
A couple quotes I want to share with you today:
Dream as if you'll live forever.
Live as if you'll die today.
~James Dean

"Each morning when I open my eyes
I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.
I can choose which it shall be.
Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet.
I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it."
~Groucho Marx
What resolve will you have when you open your eyes on the 1st day of a new year?
What resolve will be still with you when you open your eyes on the days that follow?
What goals would you have planned? What visualization will you have made to make these goals and dreams become real in your mind?
What plans have you made for yourself and those around you to make this year 2011 even better for you and them?
Five questions my friend, make the most of the answers that you give yourself.
The last few Fridays I have shared with you a few steps to a better 2011. I hope you find time to review them and try them one at a time this coming year.
For you I list them here again:
Step One ~ If you have not already started please consider a gratitude journal for the new year. Write in it 2 to 3 times a week what your grateful for and share with yourself the expression of gratitude on a consistent basis and watch the effects in 90 to 120 days.
Step Two ~ Take notice to the self talk that you give yourself when you look in the mirror, come across adversity or plan out your dreams. What words do you share with your mind. What words flow out into the world? What words could you say and share that would be better for your 2011? Positive thoughts and words bring positive results, you already know the alternative.
Step Three ~ Start now with your goals, write them down and align them with your values, don't let anyone or anything stop you from trusting in both. Goals are the prescription for future success and values define the person that you are and want to be.
Step Four ~ Dream, dream big! Don't let the focus of your thoughts turn to cold hearted reality. No dream is to big and the only dream that never comes true is the one never dreamt.
Just flowing into Friday with you and
sending you a smile along the journey.
May your smiles abound.
May your joy lift another spirit.
May you stay hungry and stay foolish!
May your heart be warmed because it always was.
Smiles sent your way this day and always!
Happy Friday everyone! : )
