Have you made your New Year’s Resolution yet? If you listen to any of the morning shows that’s all they’ve been talking about in one way or another lately. Any more I really don’t make New Year’s Resolutions instead I focus on the whole year, it’s more of a life change or goal. I use too make New Years Resolutions, but by the time Feburary came around I would have already forgotten what I was so gun-ho about.
As I’m in the process of setting my 09 goals I heard it said the other day and I really like this analogy, it was suggested that you look at your 2008 as a movie and play it back in your mind. As you replay the events of your life that occurred in 2008, was it everything you had hope or wanted it to be. Did you accomplish the things you wanted too? Did you embrace life or did life just pass you by? Did you do or learn the things you set out to learn? Did you travel to the places you wanted to travel too? Did you actually volunteer somewhere of just think about volunteering? If you think of it in terms of a football game – were you in the stands or did you get in the game? As you play back your movie make note of anything you would have done different.
Now, write your script for your upcoming movie. Write out what you would like to achieve in 2009. When it comes to January 2010, how will your 2009 movie play back?
So, instead of having a New Years Resolution why not have a life plan for 2009. Get in the game, don’t let another year just pass you by. Live life to the fullest!
May 2009 be our best year yet!
