Three Things You Want By New Years 2010 - What Are Your Priorities?

Everybody is busy and running harder than ever to close out the year. The holiday rush can be challenging and worse - you have a cold!

You won't knock everything off your to do list but three things will lead to more.

Always start with the end in mind. Imagine it's 1/01/10. Did you finish what you wanted? Does it feel like a fresh new start or are you back with the rat race wondering when you'll get a break?

Priorities - It's as easy as 1,2,3...

Last: make sure you have an organizer (that you will use). This is a snapshot of your life. The calender never lies. Plan and prepare to make 2010 different.

Good Day/Bad Day

Everyone has had a bad day but give yourself some credit for getting through it and things may feel better when you think they feel the worst.

Dealing With Unreal Fear Using Real Courage

I have found that once a time tested strategy is developed then the anticipatory anxiety falls because your prepared for what you think is the worst possible outcome.

Fear can be your worst enemy or best friend.

Listen to your body and plan ahead.

Real Homework That's Fun

When you wake up - write down 5 successes...

When you hit the sheets at night - write down 5 accomplishments...

This simple yet deceptive exercise can work profound wonders on your self-esteem.

So what are you waiting for?

Your Ideas Are Worth More Than You Think - A Lot More

I once heard a UCLA professor lecture his students about saving ideas. Many people have super ideas (who knows how many?) and fail to record them and pass on their genius to the rest of us.

Life is busy enough. Buy a micro-recorder and tape your ideas, dreams and thoughts that never make it to paper.

Start today and sell your book tomorrow. It's possible with todays technology and it's a good idea.

Your History Is Making You Money

Have you ever had a day when you thought "I'm not getting paid for all this" because your doing more than you expected to?

Make sure those extra jobs are recorded because your new dream job may draw on the whole package and wouldn't that be nice?

Everything counts. You count.

Never discount your body of work or underestimate yourself. It's rather unfortunate that so many talented people are discounted to death throughout the course of their life.

So much for high self-esteem.

Make sure your appreciated accordingly and never waste a minute.

It's Your Body So Don't Upset Yourself

The more experiences you have the better. How else will you know what you like and don't like. This applies to all areas of your life.

Now, the challenge. Other people who don't exactly work out and really give you a headache. Your job to soul satisfaction and the relationship of your dreams is to not disturb yourself and get yourself so upset that you end up missing out on something you really want but did not see - because your on fire about something that's really not in your future.

Does that make sense?

You will live longer if your stress level is lower and so will your love life. Save your drama for your life story on film and live for today.

If your out holiday shopping - make sure you buy yourself a really nice gift.

A classic song title goes 'Your the best thing that ever happened to me' so remind yourself of that by dedicating something special to you every day.

The love you create is equal to the love you make.

Last note - your best friends and partners will love you for who you are - not your job, money etc. I mean nothing more and nothing less.

You are number one and that's where the focus needs to be. Otherwise your focus will be somewhere else.

Make sure all your power stays with yourself. If it's not you then who is more worthy?

Lets Take Care Of US - The Survival Of The Fittest Game

Sometimes you have to take a risk in order to really take care of yourself. Risk taking is not always a win/win deal and sometimes it can be a total lose/lose. A lose can be a win if you can move on to the next goal and accomplish whatever your needs may be.

Some of us - like myself - need to push farther along and risk a crash and burn in order to win. The stakes are high and the payoff is a piece of heaven.

Today, I was willing to die (or crash) with some well thought out risk taking in order to live better. Was it worth it? Yes.

I won a win/win/win/win without burning and feel like I'm on fire. Yes, it gets better but keep in mind that this type of explosive growth opportunity is not for everyone. If your not sure your into this then delegate so you can win more often and stay alive in a world that continues to speed up without breaks.

It's a case of survival of the fittest.
