Yo! It is February 1st. Do you know where your Goals are?
Yes, I know it's hard to believe, but 1 out of 12 pieces of the annual pie has already screamed past us in 2008. How are you doing on those New Year's Resolutions?
If you're like most people, the fire for success that you had on January 1st has now faded to a dull ember, and you need to start blowing on those embers, lest your passionate desires for happiness, health, and wealth will spend yet another year being nothing but pipe dreams.
Here's a tip:
Don't be like other people!
When you do what other people do, you'll get what other people have gotten. Now, if you are going to do the things that happy and successful people do, then you're good. Otherwise, you might want to rethink who your role models are.
On that note, here is a quick list of places to go, people to see, and things to do that can help you to reignite that passionate New Year's flame, and allow you to remember that 2008 was going to be the year that was different than all rest.
If you don't know exactly what it is that you want, but you just know that you want to be happy, then check out Alex Shalman's Happiness Project. It's a month-long study of how several successful and happy people have gotten to BE successful and happy. I'm one of those people (YAY for me!), and I could not give higher praise to Alex for what is an absolutely WONDERFUL project, complete with loads of fun, great prizes, and a chance to learn how it's all done:
If you know what you want, but you're just not sure how to get it, then stop procrastinating and join Personal Development Partners. Partners – you know; friends, business associates, mentors, people who want what you want and are willing to help you get it:
If you know that you want to lose weight, but you haven't quite figured out how that whole "eat less, move more" thing works, then swing by Fitness Destinations for more exercise and nutrition info that you can shake a stick at, or, if you're really brave, go to Craig Harper's place:
If you know that you want more money, but you can't seem to figure out how to get it, I highly recommend James Arthur Ray as a guru worth listening to. I am going through his Million Dollar Mindset program right now, and it rocks. Here are some of James' other success-related resources:
If you know that you want a better relationship, but you just can't seem to get over the hump of constantly attracting the wrong guy or girl into your life, Dan and Jennifer are experts worth spending some time with. Their blog posts and YouTube videos are awesome, fun, and highly educational:
There ya have it, folks! A whole pile of resources that run the gamut from basic happiness all the way up through millionaire status. Reignite those New Year's Resolutions! Be different by actually getting the job done this year!
