A to Z to a Successful ME!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Many times when we make our New Years Resolutions we do them on automatic pilot. Just stating the desired, wished for result and thinking hopeful thoughts like "I really hope I can do it this time, this year ...." We view the goal for the New Year as something that will be fraught with difficulty, struggle and false starts.

Do we stop to consider all the talents, skills and abilities that we already possess to assist us in achieving our resolutions? I think not. So today let's go through the alphabet and list A to Z what you are capable of doing to be Free! (And then you can use some or all of these as your daily affirmations to cheer yourself on in your goals)

I have an ATTITUDE of Gratitude!
I take BOLD actions on my BUSINESS!
I CREATE a vision board for my 2012 goals!

Be Resolute in pursuing your Resolutions

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
The early New Year is full of resolutions. In the Webster dictionary resolution is defined as: firmness of purpose; statement of will or intent.

To be resolute is defined as: having a fixed purpose.

So as you make your resolutions this New Year give some careful thought. Develop a clear vision of what you want to create for yourself this year. Then make the commitment to yourself to be resolute in pursuing your goals. Create a powerful statement of intention and post it where you can see it regularly.

Affirm:
I am committed and resolute in pursuing my 2012 goals. I am worthy and deserving of complete resolution in this New Year.

Have a Resolute Thursday!

Today is both the old and the New

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Today is a special day! This day comes but once a year. It is a day that holds both the remnants of the old and the excitement and promise of the New.


Today is a day of Release! Releasing all that you no longer need; struggles, misery, hardship, loss, lack, criticism of self, victim-hood. Anything that weighs you down. Anyone who holds you back.
It is a time for clearing out that which no longer serves your greatest good.

Today is a day of acknowledgment. Acknowledging how far you have come! All the steps you have taken towards your personal goals. All that you have been through and made it - made it to today! Take the successes - big and small, take the enlightenment gained, the lessons learned, take You and pat yourself on the back and say "Congratulations on all you have accomplished!"

Today is a day of Vision. Creating the Vision of You and Your life in the New Year.

Today is a day of Preparation. Preparing for a great New Adventure! Just like packing for a trip or a vacation you cannot take it all so you have to prioritize what you will pack and take with you.
Take your favorite things, things that give you comfort, support and encouragement. Take a support network with you - edit your phone book and keep only those numbers that bring a smile to your face and comfort to your soul. Add in any numbers of new friends and soul supporters.

Put in a change of address form with your Higher Authority and make your Intention clear that you are moving on up to a bigger, better and Higher location.
Take only the memories that warm your heart and sustain you in peace, love and joy.

Today is a day of Action! Let this day and all the steps above galvanize you into taking the actions necessary to create a positive, powerful New Year!
You have earned it, You deserve it and You are Worth it!

Affirm:
Today I am clearing out the old and making room for the Positive, Powerful New ME in the New Year!

Have a safe, peaceful and joyous New Years Eve!
Consider yourself hugged-

Cheer Yourself On Vision Board

I pieced together and laid out what I wanted on my cheer Yourself On Board and then took a picture of it. Then I can remove any or all of the pieces and not worry about forgetting where everything goes.

Then I printed the picture in black and white in large size and put it next to my Vision Board so I could refer to it as I continued to create.

Then I started painting my flowers on my board. This is where I am at right now after letting it dry last night. Today I will add more flowers and add the flower details and see how I like it. I can already tell I may change my board layout as I am getting new ideas as I paint!

Will post some more later - I can't wait to see how it turns out!

My Success Habits Vision Board

This is my Success Habits Vision Board that I did a couple of weeks ago. I really love the way it turned out and I have it hanging right over my monitor so I can look at it and read it every day. It keeps me motivated and moving forward. I even like the head shot of me that I pasted onto my board!
