Dear Friend,
I don't care how much power, brilliance or energy you have, if you don't
harness it and focus it on a specific target, and hold it there you're never
going to accomplish as much as your ability warrants.

Can you believe we are less than two weeks away from the New Year and the
Holidays are upon us? Where does time go!
This week I want us to review 2008 - the truth - the things that worked and the
things that didn't. By reflecting we can find the things that worked and continue to
do them in 2009. Additionally, we can adjust what didn't work so that we get
different results in 2009.
What were your goals in 2008? Before we leave 2008 and begin to think about
2009 here are 10 questions to consider:
1) Is what you are doing in your life - personally and professionally - working?
2) Are you getting the results you desire?
3) Are you fulfilled?
4) Are you enjoying your life?
5) Are your relationships nourishing and flourishing?
6) Do you take time to relax?
7) Are you growing as an individual?
8) Are you getting spiritual nourishment?
9) Do you make yourself a priority? (See article on self care.)
10) What is really important to me? (See article on blessings.)
Once you have taken time to reflect upon these ten questions consider the
following:
If you could change one thing in your life what would it be and how might you make
that change?
Make It Happen
This week I hope that you have a joyous Holiday with your loved ones. Keep your
focus on the blessings in your life. Treasure each family member and celebrate
what they bring to the table of your life. Try to find a few quiet moments before and
after the fun to consider the questions above. We will use your answers to these
questions as a basis for planning your 2009.
Regardless if 2008 was your best year yet or if it left a lot to be desired keep your
eyes on the bountiful blessings in your life.
Next week we will focus on creating your vision for 2009!
Blessings to you for a warm and joyous Holiday!
