NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS FOR UNIQUE & YOURS, AND ME PERSONALLY!

As the New Year - 2011 draws near, we all begin to look at how we can do things differently, achieve a different outcome than the last year. Making our do's and don't list, deciding what is realistic, and how to get it done.


New Years Resolutions - what are they really? where did they come from?

The tradition of making New Years Resolutions dates back to the early Babylonians. The most popular resolution of that time was to return borrowed farm equipment.

Today's resolutions include things such as stop smoking, loss weight, more exercise, save money......and they go on.

My resolutions for 2011 are going to be as follows:


1. Say something encouraging to someone each day! Hope and pray they will do the same!

2. Smile - my father always use to say "it is easier to smile than frown".

3. Write each day - as a writer, this is a must....discipline!

4. Don't always expect to receive something, but be willing to give!

5. Walk at least 3 blocks a day - for the heart! Add more when I can!

6. Use my talents to help and inspire others!

7. Know that there are those out there that will try to destroy you and your good works, but leave large spaces between you and them......continue your good work! They will defeat themselves with their continued negativity of others.

8. Give thanks daily! For both the good and the bad, as it will help us grow as individuals.

9. When I stumble, pick myself up and continue down my path, God's direction will light the path!

10. Say please and thank you!

11. Live each day to the fullest, as if it was my last!

12. Work with some of the most wonderful clients, and help them get the wedding/event that they have dreamed of.......!
My more traditional resolutions -


1. Get organized

2. Get better organized

3. Get super organized

4. Love my family unconditionally.

5. Less face book, more face to face communication!

6. Oh yeah, the "LOSS WEIGHT" resolution!

As 2010 comes to an end, and 2011 begins, a new book opens. It is my goal this year - both in my personal and business life to make the most of it, to complete my resolutions and attain my goals! A new beginning, a new chapter, let it begin!

Happy New Year to you all, and may 2011 be the best for each of you!


Remember to encourage one another, instead of trying to knock each other down! Life is to short for that! We all have a place in this world! Make your place the best it can be!
