New Year's is a unique holiday. It's the only holiday that celebrates the passage of time. Perhaps that's why, as the final seconds of the year tick away, we tend to become introspective. Then we wonder: how did time get away from us? And why did all our hopes and dreams never materialize? Inevitably, that introspection turns to thoughts of self-improvement and the annual ritual of making Resolutions. We all do it. We swear to ourselves, "This is THE year" for transforming our lives and fulfilling our goals. We are determined to keep all the promises to lose weight, stop smoking, make more money, be more patient...just fill in the blanks. Over the next few days millions of people from around the world will ask themselves questions as they figure out how to make 2010 the best year of their lives. The following is a creative exercise for you to think about how to surpass your potential in the New Year. In 2010, I'm finally going to __________________________! How would YOU fill in that blank? Go ahead, take a minute and give it your best shot... I'll wait right here... Now fast-forward to December 31st - New Years Eve, 2011. You're reflecting on the past year, jotting down a few notes in your journal. "I've got a lot to be thankful for this year... I reduced my credit card debt by $_______________________________. I feel great and now fit into my ________________________________. I have increased my retirement fund by $_________________________. I have achieved a number of goals to include ____________________. I have exceeded my own expectations by __________________________. I've got nearly enough money saved for a nice family vacation in ______________________. So, what did YOU write down? What are your aspirations for the coming year? Are you ready to make 2010 the best year EVER? Well, this doesn't have to be just a fun little exercise. It can be something much better... If the idea of erasing your debt, making more income, doing something good for those in your community or finally making lasting changes this year sounds good to you, then pay VERY close attention. I'm going to tell you about something wonderful that IS the exact thing you'll want to make your Resolutions stick! AND you'll even get BONUSES! Introducing the Got Resolutions Challenge!

“How do we keep our inner fire alive? Two things, at minimum, are needed: an ability to appreciate the positives in our life – and a commitment to action. Every day, it’s important to ask and answer these questions: ‘What’s good in my life?’ and ‘What needs to be done?’”
-- Nathaniel Branden

Write down everything.
Only when you get everything out on paper can you see what you really want out of life.
