Making the best of this New Year

As with every New Year that comes our way we must be thankful for what we have, what we have been through and what we have learned in the past year. No matter if you feel it was not the best year (and let's be honest it probably was not for many) remember it is all there for a reason. That we can either take our experiences, hardships and circumstances and learn from them, overcome them and change them... or we can stay in the same circle getting nowhere. Facing your fears, making a change and sacrificing a few things you love for awhile will be the just of successfully achieving your goals and dreams for this New Year and many years to come.

Take the time today to sit and really focus on what you want out of this year, where you want to be a year from now and what you are willing to do to get there. No matter if it is deciding to start a Home Based Business or searching for that work at home job, to come home to your children or go back to school. You have to remember that it is all in your hands. It is up to you to make it happen. That you must never give up and keep on overcoming any obstacle that comes in your way to achieve these goals.

Obstacles and hardships seem to be to the main reason why people give up and what you must understand is they should be the exact reason why they keep on going. They serve as our base to accomplishment. There must be failure to achieve success. There must be an obstacle to overcome to feel accomplishment. There must be a story behind where you are today or years to come for people to look up to and be inspired by. Once you are where someone else wants to be, the story serves as a strength to show others it can be done and intrigues them to knowing they can do it also. It is those who allow failure to take over that do not achieve success.

Our mindset, feelings and focus are all important ratios of accomplishing anything in our life. New Years are great as they become the base of a New Beginning, a New Start, a New Day. It allows many to feel like they can let the past be the past and move forward to changing their life, changing their circumstances and achieving their goals. Make a promise to yourself in this New Year 2010... don't just say it, don' just feel it for the first week... but know, believe and most of all do everything possible to making it happen!

Top 5 keys to ensuring your New Year's resolutions are acheived in 2010

Now is the time for everyone to get ready for the New Year... Time to write your goals and dreams down for the year and start implementing the tasks to making them happen. Before you write them down this year, let's dig a little deeper into really achieving them. As known in The Slight Edge, Secrets to a Successful Life, it is not just writing down these important things but it is staying consistent with actions daily to making them happen. Instant gratification is a very sad concept this world has grown to need and feel is necessary to prove success. Which honestly is not at all included in the road to success by any means. The road to success or happiness can be a hard, difficult one. But remembering that it is the journey and never giving up is what counts will ensure you achieving these successes and achievements you dream of.

With that said we wanted to share a few key concepts and tasks to implement with these New Years resolutions of yours. So not only writing down and thinking of what you want to achieve this year but now actually sticking with them and making them happen can be accomplished successfully.

The Top 5 Keys to ensuring your New Year's Resolutions in 2010:

1. To know and believe you will achieve your goals and dreams. Make it your focus and visualize making them happen and they will. Put your heart, dedication and determination into whatever resolutions you make. Do whatever it takes to make them happen, do not let any wall, obstacle or hard time stand in your way. A great way to enforcing this mindset is learning more about The Secret.

2. Staying realistic but still reach for the stars. Make high goals so when you achieve them (even if it is not as high as you wanted it to be when you get there) you will still be proud of yourself and know it was worth it! Making high goals that are still realistic make your achievements that much higher and allow you to achieve more than you thought possible as to opposed to aiming low. Aiming low will ultimately not get you where you want to be.

3. Action, action, action. Put forth the tasks, work, dedication and determination that is necessary to achieving your goals and dreams. Write down a game plan and stick with it on a daily basis. Ensure you are working towards them everyday even when you do not feel like it. Make it a priority in your life just like your children and family. It has to be on the top of your list no matter what.

4. Consistency is key. With any resolution, goal or dream you might have... it is those who do not stick with it consistently are the ones who do not achieve these goals that they so awfully want to make happen. What happens is many will get excited and get those goals in action mode. Then a week goes by and they do not see instant gratification and they give up or gradually stop working towards it. This is where consistency in life and in your goals is necessary to achieving them. Also, understanding it will not happen over night and will take time is a great deal apart of staying consistent achieving success.

5. Personal Growth and Development. Learn about you, grow yourself daily as a person. Doing this will allow you to work towards your resolutions, goals and dreams with the positive feeling and mindset to making them happen. This includes utilizing audios, books, movies, seminars, etc. Just doing something on a daily basis to grow and learn. You can find many ways of Personal Growth and Development here.

As you can see these are just a few things you can do to ensure your success of any resolution set in your mind and heart. There are many ways to ensuring you achieve these but remembering it does go much deeper than writing them down and starting them... It is finishing them is what counts! Giving up is not an option and if you have to fail your way to the top, you better do it to make those goals and dreams come true. Happy New Year and may you have the strength, perseverance, consistency and most of all... the heart and passion to achieving your goals and dreams in 2010!

Yes, anything in life that is worth anything, that brings you love, that brings you success, that brings you happiness, that brings you your dreams... will be work, will be effort, will be paying a price... but always remember either way you will be paying a price, just ask yourself this...


Do you want to pay the price for failure?
Or do you want to pay the price for success?

I choose success... what do you choose?

The Secret (Laws of Attraction)

I have personally been using The Secret (Laws of Attraction) since starting my Home Business with Ameriplan® in Jan. 2008. When I was a few months into the business I felt discouraged, scared and thought maybe I just was not cut out for it! Well, I was wrong... and honestly we ALL can do anything we want to because we control the way we think and feel! I went to my Mentor and let her know what I was going through (after my pity party)... She then suggested I watch and read The Secret and ever since then my life has completely changed. It does work as I am proof. Yes, it is difficult at first to implace in your life, but it will work if you are willing to put forth the effort to use The Secret (Laws of Attraction) and implement in the way you live, think and feel.

The Law of Attraction —the concept that our thoughts and feelings create our experiences, and that we attract to ourselves what we focus our attention on—has been known to sages for thousands of years. Because of this, you can use the principles of the law of attraction to relieve stress, negative thoughts, and to attract the life you want. (I’ve used it in my business and in my personal life, and it works!) The following steps can lead you to the life you envision, via the law of attraction.

Life Responds to Your Outlook...

Life is largely a matter of expectation.

You must expect to succeed, if you want to succeed.When you expect things to happen, strangely enough, they do happen.

Expectation energizes your goals and give them momentum.When you believe something good can happen, it will happen.

Set your goals high.If you begin with some wild expectations you'll succeed beyond your wildest expectations.

The dreams you believe in come to be.

There is No Success with out Hardships

The world is so constructed that if you wish to enjoy its pleasures,you must also endure its pains.

Like it or not, you cannot have one without the other.

Success is not measured by what you accomplish. It's measured by the opposition you encounter, and the courage with which you maintain your struggle against the odds.

You'll find all things are difficult before they are easy.

The greater your obstacles, the more glory in overcoming them.

So, make up your mind before you start that sacrifice is part of the package.

No pain, no gain;
No thorns, no throne;
No cross, no crown.

You've got to go through the negative before you get to the positive.
