Your Most Important Decision of 2005
Your Masterpiece
Coach John Wooden was one of the most successful athletic coaches the world has ever seen. As the head basketball coach at one of the United States top universities, UCLA, Wooden compiled a record of 620 wins to 147 losses. Even more incredibly, Wooden¡¯s teams won the US national championship 10 out of 12 years, including a string of 88 straight victories with no losses, and seven championships in a row.

You cant lose weight if you listen to your family and friends
I bet you already know all the health benefits for keeping slim. You have probably tried every diet; the Atkins, the Southbeach, the metabolic, the fruit, the water or just plain starvation. In fact, you may even have gained extra weight. You know all the intellectual stuff about keeping healthy, exercising and eating consistently. But you are still as heavy as ever.

What is the greatest Job in the world?
Write It Down, Get It Done
It’s that time of year again, the time for optimistic thinking and resolution making. If you are not mindful, another year will pass you by taking with it your dreams and aspirations. Have you ever wondered why you can’t seem to make forward progress in your life? It is usually because you have not taken the time to find out what you want and commit it to paper. Someone once said, “A goal not written is but a wish.” And this is completely true. Without writing down what you want, it often becomes just “wishful thinking.” In fact, a Harvard University study proved that those people who wrote things down got five times more accomplished than those who did not.
Write Down Your Goals!
Like umbrellas and pens, unwritten goals almost always end in loss!
Work That Works for You
About 25% of my clients are working on career change issues. Some know what they want to do, but don't know how to get there. Others are faced with the difficult realization that (at 20, 30, 40 or 50 years of age) they still don't know what they want to do when they grow up.

Why You Should Aim For The Stars

Why you don't need Motivation
As a life coach, I often hear people say they lack motivation – in fact, the “motivation discussion” is almost a ritual with my new clients. You really want something, in fact you almost need it, but you just don’t have the drive to get to it. As a result, you blame yourself; you get stuck in your disappointment, your guilt, or your frustration – further and further away from your goal.

Whose Goals Are They?

Where's The Map, I Think I'm Lost!!
How many times have you begun the year with grand ideas of things you needed to do? The calendar changes a little bit, and we have this sense of a new beginning. You know what I'm talking about, those silly things we call "New Year's Resolutions".
When You Know What You Want, You Get What You Want
You know what you want out of life, right? You may quickly answer, “Of course!” but take a moment to really think about this. Can you write down exactly what it is you want? Most of us think we know, but when we sit down and try to write it down, we draw a blank. Others may know what they want in general terms, but have not thought through the details. For example, you may want to be happy, but what does that really mean? Do you mean you want to go about your day grinning from ear to ear? Or would a monogamous relationship make you happy? Maybe, having ,000 in your savings account will make you happy. It’s important to know exactly what you want, in every detail.
What's Behind Your Goals?
Let's be honest, you're serious about getting the things you want from life. You've got plans. You've got goal and you know why they are useful, how to set them, and how to go after them. But have you ever thought about where these goals come from?
What It Takes to Finally Get On With Your Dream
It seems to me there is only one real and proper way to live a joyful life, and that is to do the thing you are meant to be doing. There are people out there who make it seem like rolling out of bed, But I know from experience -- pursuing your dream 'ain't always so easy.

Failure is defined as "falling short of hitting the target." What if you couldn’t fail? How differently might you approach

What Are You Committed To?
Look at your life right now and ask yourself this question, "What am I committed to?" You won't have to go far to find answers; they'll virtually leap up at you. Perhaps it will be easier to see what you're not committed to. For example, I'm committed to having an organized working environment. But I'm not committed to making myself a basket case to satisfy some external standard for organization...i.e. "your desk must be clear at the end of the day in order to be productive."
What Are You Committed To?
Webster’s defines the word “commit?as: to pledge or devote oneself

Everything has it’s beginning in mind. Everything. The world and everything in it was once a thought.
Using Anger to Find Your Passion
We talk so often about finding our passion, our why. I have spent months examining what I thought my passion in life was, my why - all my life I have felt so guilty for "wanting" anything - I have always put the wantsand needs of others first and when I fulfilled their wants and needs, I , in turn thought I felt fulfilled. You can see where that led! All my Passions and my whys revolved around my husband, my mother, my son, my stepchildren, my boss, my co-workers. I never allowed my passions to really revolve around my innermost desires. That was just too selfish, it just felt wrong, or so my programming went. I realized I had such a hard time finding my why, my passion, because my mother was such a martyr, and passed that along to me. I never learned how to communicate what I wanted. I was programmed to suppress those wants and needs and desires.

Transforming Shadow Comfort
Why do we choose shadow comfort? Because the moment in which we choose to turn on the TV or devour the chocolate bar is THE creative moment. This is the moment where you can choose to create or to go numb. It is the present moment, pregnant with possibility and often rife with a great variety of fears. It is in this moment that the juice comes in, where the life unfolds, the Divine speaks to you, where you get hooked up to the universal power plant.
Transforming Scarcity into Abundance
Financial abundance is an extension of our thoughts, emotions and beliefs. Are you struggling in your career or relationships? Do you complain rather than take action? Are you pessimistic and doubtful that life is full of possibilities and opportunities? If you are not fully satisfied or not enjoying prosperity right now, then you need to shift your perspective on your life.

Indeed, the key to lifelong earning is lifelong learning.

Three Keys
Okay, we've all read the book and magazine titles: "Five Secrets to Having Absolutely Everything You Ever Wanted Without Really Trying," or "Success in Three Easy Steps." And there is certainly value in many of those books, magazines and seminars. There are secrets that successful people use to get ahead. But there are no magic potions. As a lifelong student of self-development books, tapes, seminars, and of life coaching, I've discovered that behind every book, every self-help tape, every coaching call there are three non-mystical, non-magical keys that show up again and again. It is these three keys I want to share with you today.
Thoughts Are Things
You've probably heard this idea at one time or another. You've probably nodded your head in agreement understanding that thoughts are in fact, things. You probably believe this and accept that your thoughts, being things, do in fact have power.

The Simplest and most Effective Goalsetting technique ever.
I am fortunate to work with people from all walks of life on a regular basis and one of the most common requests I have is to help them set and achieve ‘real’ goals. One necessity in starting this process is to take time out of our day to assess our current position and determine where we are heading and why we want to get there. Most of us should know the basics of SMART goal setting: Make them Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Tangible. That’s fine but we also need a method of keeping our selves on track and on target to make sure we achieve results.
The Simple Steps To Reaching Your Goals
I'm sure this is not the first time you have heard about goal setting. The reason you keep hearing about it is because it really is important to your life. A good definition of goals is that they are dreams with deadlines. Yes, you can make your dreams come true. How do you want your life to be 10 years from now? How about 5 years, next year, or even 6 months from now.

THE PRINCIPLES OF SUCCESS
What is success? I am not going to try to define success. I think a precise definition is impossible. Is it winning a Gold Medal at the Olympic Games or winning Wimbledon, or being awarded a Nobel prize? What else? I believe personal success could be anything at all--it does not have to involve public recognition. Who is more successful? A millionaire who is unhappy, or an unnoticed person who has led a simple, happy life? The simplest definition of success I think is 'to set out to do something and to succeed in doing it'. It really doesn't matter what, or how humble the undertaking is...

The New You in the New Year
How many times have you told yourself that this year you’re going to finally lose that weight or quit smoking or look for a better job? How often do you carry over your New Year’s resolutions from one year to the next? If you’re like most people, you come up with a long wish list of things you want to improve and try your best to make them happen during the year. The problem is that not even a month goes by before you’ve already forgotten about most of your goals and are back to your old habits again. There are a few simple things that can be done however, to help you stick to your plan.
The Mystery of Practice
A few years ago for my 40th birthday, I gave myself the gift of voice lessons. The first several weeks were a rude awakening. I, who had always loved to sing, couldn't open my mouth properly, articulate vowels correctly, or command my tongue to occupy its assigned position at the bottom of my mouth. Try as I might, I seemed unable to achieve the results I sought. I was sorely tempted to quit.
The Motivating Power of Vision
Some people swear by vision and mission statements and others hate them. Many companies have done quite well without them.
The most precious thing in the world
Time is the most precious of all our resources. Every tick of a clock, each passing wave on the sands, the movement of the stars and the sun and moon across the sky all hint at it's passing. It's the most limited of resources we have on this earth. We could mine distant planets and dredge the depths of the earth but we'll never find another reservoir of time for ourselves. Every time a second passes, we have a second less to work with. A moment that can never be reclaimed. Its intangible nature sometimes makes us forget just how transient and ephemeral we are.

THE INTERNET ADVENTURES OF STUPIDMAN #1
I have know R.H. Jaycox (Jay), the author of Internet Profit Pearls, for over a decade. A while back he asked me to read a pre-final draft (don't know how many pre-s I should really use) of the book. Technically I don't have a clue of what he was talking about but,having lost money through an earlier investment,I recognized the truth he was describing. In Chapters 4&11 he recommended writing articles for ezines as a way of promoting a business. I wrote one, showed it to him and he liked it. Jay suggested that I write a series from my ignorant perspective as I try to implement the suggestions in the "final?" draft of the book.

Social Progress
I've always hated the term "psychotherapy" because it makes it sound as if a mind searching for wisdom is like a sore muscle needing to be rubbed. Indeed, therapists are often blamed for getting their patients to "feel better" at the expense of dulling their awareness that the world is a crazy place that needs to become more civilized -- as if our caring for other people, or for the future our children will see, were no more than a "sublimation" of more genuine, "primal" desires.

Sitting on Success
Taking a close look at the different “success formulas? I found that each differs only slightly from the others. Each “formula?represents the method/steps these individuals used to reach they’re goals. It would be my guess, they probably didn’t even have a formula when they started on their respective journeys. These “formulas?developed over time. Just like yours and mine. However, as I studied each published “formula,?I found a fundamental component of success missing. Each formula was missing the guidance of making a Commitment.

Simple Rules For Wealth On The Web
In an exclusive interview I had with Linda Proctor, she told me that over 23 years ago, her Husband, Bob Proctor stated, “Forget about thinking about earning a 0,000 dollars, or doubling your income; instead, can you see yourself doing two things differently everyday? Then, he gave me those two things and what I realized over the years is that every time you set a new goal, you are going to have to think of a couple of things that you are going to do different because you are not going to get different results doing those same things.”
Should you give up or keep going?

I could just picture it…I, his proud mama in the stands adorned in the appropriate team sweatshirt. After the game - a big hug and kiss for his mom while fans surround him and scream “We’re Number One!” And (of course), I could clearly see the big house he’d buy me to live out my old age (come on, if a girl’s gonna dream she may as well dream)!

Setting Goals: Real vs. Ideal
Failing to attain goals is among the heaviest blows to self-concept, the totality of your thoughts and feelings about yourself. To actually attain goals depends largely on an important concept in adolescent development. It’s called delay of gratification. When you’re trying to achieve something, you’re much more likely to accomplish your goal by making a realistic plan, then following it, rather than trying to snatch up the object of your desire in one gluttonous move. Unfortunately, a great many people never come to understand this concept. They spend their entire lives seeking instant gratification.
Setting Goals – Things to Think About
We hear a lot about the steps we should take to achieve our goals, however unless we take the first steps to realistically consider who and what we are right now – our capabilities and interests – and think logically about what we’d like to accomplish, our chances of achieving our “goal” are slim to none. Here are a few things to think about when you’re trying to decide what you’d like to do.
SETTING GOALS
'...There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is- definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants and a burning desire to possess it.' - Napoleon Hill
Setting Goals
December is a great month for reflecting on the outgoing year and setting goals for the one ahead. What worked and what didn't? What were your biggest victories and challenges this year? Start planning now to make the new year a success. What would you like to achieve? Would you like your business to be profiled in the Wall Street Journal? How about getting the local jewelry stores to start carrying your handmade pieces? Or maybe you make the best chocolate chip cookies ever and want to finally get something tangible for your efforts (especially since the weak dollar has produced a nasty spike in the price of gourmet chocolate chips)?
Set Yourself Up For Success!
Here's a great way to program, or set yourself up, for success in advance. It is one of many of what I call, New Empowering Habit Plans (TM). A New Empowering Habit Plan is a formula for achieving success in any given area of your life and requires a minimum of 21 consecutive days of implementation. Why 21 days? Because research by behavioral scientists has proven it takes at least 21 days to establish a habit.
Set Your Goals, Change Your Life & Celebrate!
Studies tell us that only 3% of people in the USA set goals, and they are among the wealthiest people in the nation! Worldwide the percentage is probably lower. Why so low? There are several reasons, but the one that concerns us the most at Ziglar Training Systems is lack of know-how. When we ask people why they don't set goals they often say, "I don't know how."
Self-development with the I Ching
What do people mean by self-development, self improvement, or personal growth? They all indicate a focus on the individual, an ideal of becoming something more than we are, or perhaps becoming more fully what we already are. Self development means exploring your potential, creating your ideal self. All manner of self-help books will tell you that the first step to real achievement is deciding what you want to achieve: to set goals. There are many ways of going about this - such as imagining what you would like people to say about you - but it can be hard to break out from your present, limited horizons to see greater possibilities. What you need is a vision of this Self that you can work with, a new way of imagining yourself.

Introduction
Rise from the Ashes
The legend of the phoenix can actually be found in several belief systems. It can be traced back to ancient Egypt when it was then known as “Bennu” or Bynw”, a symbol of the sun god Osiris. Osiris was resurrected to life from serving as ruler of the underworld.
Resolutions That Work
What usually happens to your resolve in the New Year? Does it disappear before the pine needles are even vacuumed? Do you spend more energy on excuses than on execution? Can you even remember your intention by Valentine's day?

Reinventing Goals 12/2002
If setting goals and resolutions keep you focused and work for you then by all means keep using them! However, if goals seem too rigid or too restrictive and leave you feeling cold/bored/unmotivated, perhaps using vision and intention affirmations will help to inspire you. Below are some examples of how you can turn typical goal statements into a more positive, attractive intention affirmation:
Re-Decorate Your LIFE!
Does your life sometimes feel like a storage room where everybody else has dumped their mess and it seems there's no room left for you? Maybe it's time to forget about the living room...and Re-Decorate Your LIFE!
Read the fine print of your dream
"In the factory we make lipstick; in the drugstore we sell hope." That's what Charles Revson, Revlon's founder, supposedly said.
Reach your goals automatically with positive habits
Did you know that habits are incredibly powerful tools for personal growth and success?
Reach Out For Your Dreams
Why are we afraid to chase our dreams... Why does one person find it difficult to set out and achieve that which they desire, while others can some how set out, without so much a care in the world. What makes some people achievers, while others remain simply dreamers.
Reach For Success Instead
As a business success coach and speaker, I listen to audio cassettes, watch videos, read books and go to workshops all in order to learn how people can improve their possibility for achieving success. When I hear the stories of successful people, I look for the "gold nugget" that has universal application.
Quest For Greatness
Stories start with a character with whom we can identify. That character gets into difficulty. The character heroically overcomes the difficulty and resolves the problem.
PUTTING POSITIVE THINKING INTO POSITIVE ACTION
PUTTING POSITIVE THINKING INTO POSITIVE ACTION!
Putting Lipstick On A Pig
Technology can help tremendously with time management, and many examples of this are seen everyday: It can make changing calendar appointments effortless. Also, with the click of a button, many people can be emailed an announcement of a meeting change. Potential uses are enormous. But, time and time again, in my personal coaching practice, I frequently see folks simply using technology to automate a poor time management system. They are in effect, paving the cow path, or putting lipstick on a pig.
Put Your Hound Dog Out of His Misery
“You ain't nothin' but a hound dog, just a'cryin' all the time.?Who hasn't heard Elvis belt out that rock and roll classic, but did you ever consider the hidden meaning behind those words? Clearly this was a song about the long-term effects of a negative attitude, and the hidden implication is, “put your hound dog out of his misery!?
Pursuing your passion, do what you love to do
Most people spend most of their lives earning a living instead of designing a life! When was the last time you sat down and thought about where you are going and how you are going to get there. A recent study done by Keith Abraham who holds regular ‘Designing Your Life’ seminars across Australia, showed that most people spend more time planning there next holiday or buying their next car, than sitting down and working out what they really want out of their life.
Prioritizing: Getting Somewhere
A very helpful way to thinking about stress is that it often results from our failure to live up to our own standards and goals. Psychotherapists hear over and over again from patients that they are never satisfied with themselves. Often the patient is excessively perfectionistic; sometimes the patient's goals are so far out of reach that he feels too demoralized to even take the first step.
Prerequisite Qualities For Optimum Goal Setting
The minute you set a goal, you are creating a 'mini crisis' in your mind. You're tellilng your mind about a journey you are considering. In simple terms you are stating where you want to be in relation to where you are. And in between these two is a chasm, a gap.
Preparing Yourself to Win Every Time
If I was to ask you what you wanted more than anything else in your life, what would be your answer?
PR/Publicity Tips
There¡¯s no denying that the Internet is allowing more and more entrepreneurs to start their own businesses and effectively market their new products. However, there seems to be an increasingly common misconception when these businesses try to generate media attention and publicity for their products. Over the past several years, I have had more than a few clients come to me seeking ¡°a PR¡± to get people interested in their products/businesses. That¡¯s right ¡°a PR¡±. Contrary to what some people think, PR is NOT an acronym for ¡°Press Release¡±. PR is much more than that and that distinction is very important to understand.

Planning Principles
The old adage reminds us that “People don’t plan to fail but a lot of people do fail to plan.” During a war, we find a tank operator and a general. Which function is more important? It is probably the general, at least in this sense. One can be the best tank operator on the line, get out there everyday and shoot off more rounds of ammunition and shoot them more accurately than anyone else on the line, but if he is not shooting at a target that makes any sense, then his whole day is wasted. The general, through advanced planning, decides where the tank operator ought to go and thereby increases his “productivity”.
Personal Goal Setting
You don’t have to be a professional athlete or the CEO of a Fortune 500 company to set goals. Instead, what you do have to be is an individual who desires success – be it in your career, within your family, or perhaps with your personal finances.

Overcoming Adversity in Sales
Do you wish you could close sales faster? Are there times when you dream of landing a huge multimillion-dollar account? After you lose a client do you ever think, “I wish I could keep my clients forever?” And at the beginning of every month when your commission feels like zero, do you wonder, “How in the heck will I ever prosper?"
Out with the Old, In with the New
I love the clean slate feeling of a new year. A whole 365 days to design a life worth living. For a fresh start, here are some ways to complete 2003 and make room for 2004.
Optimism
It's an age-old battle. Pessimists think optimists are foolish, optimists think pessimists make themselves unnecessarily miserable. A lot of research has been done on this issue in the last 30 years. Have we answered the question yet? Is the glass half-full or half-empty?
One Small Adjustment
I know that a lot of advice pundits often instruct you to focus on the “big picture”. And it certainly has it place in helping you move toward a better life. But it runs the risk of letting you think that you need to totally redesign your life. And that’s just not true! Often it only takes one small adjustment to make things so much easier, better, and happier in your life. Try instead to focus on the details, and the big picture will take care of itself.

New year's resolutions
Do you know the percentage of people who break new year's resolutions? It doesn't matter what their new year resolution was -- to diet, to lose weight, to exercise, to sleep better, to work better... whatever... It happens to so many people, year after year.
New Beginnings
The celebration of the New Year brings hope and new life to old dreams. Things that didn¡¯t seem attainable or possible suddenly seem as though they are right within our grasp as the next year arrives. Are our dreams any more attainable then they were a day, a week, a month earlier, most likely no. However, there is something in our perception of what the New Year brings that gives us new hope and new life in our dreams.

My Insight into Numerology
From time to time, we wonder about the mystery that exists in our day to day experiences and events that happen in our lives. Some parts of these events are beyond our control and some are not. We are all here to experiment the theory that we learnt before we decided to embark upon our journey in this lifetime. Sometimes life does not go as far as what was originally intended in the years of previous planning. Well, welcome to planet earth! It is, of course, alright to make mistakes in life as long as we deal with the experience in an appropriate way. In other words, your individual response to what happens to you in your experience or lesson is as important as the circumstance itself.

MOTIVATION - FOCUSING YOUR ENERGIES ON YOUR GOALS
Picture this: A sales manager gathers his team around him and then says something like ‘Well, um, hello guys. I have this idea that I would, um, like to tell you about. I admit it’s not all that brilliant, but times are hard out there in the marketplace and it is the only thing I could think of, so just give it a little go and see what you can do”. How do you think a group of willing, eager salespeople would react to that flabby statement? It is an absolute certainty that any interest or commitment that team had would have flown straight out of the window. Not only did this sales manager not know what he had to do, he lacked the one thing that would have got his people fired up, ready to get out there and sell - he lacked the power of Motivation. But, before we can ever hope to ignite the enthusiasm and commitment in others we must first learn how to motivate ourselves. It is a fact that motivation, if applied skilfully, will turn a mediocre idea into something glorious, a dream or a goal worth aiming for, so

Margarine Vs. Butter
For many years people have debated the merits of guns vs. butter as symbols of spending on military might or domestic comfort. Since 1869 another political debate has gone on, this one concerning the merits of margarine vs. butter. In that year a French food chemist succeeded in making a cheap substitute for the real thing, which had become scarce and expensive in the wake of a European cattle plague. The word margarine came from the Greek for "pearl," because the original version was hard, white, and glossy. It also must have been less than appetizing since it was made from beef fat, milk, and chopped sheep's stomachs and cows' udders, all treated with heat, lye, and pressure.
Manifesting Your Heart's Desire
What is it we lack the most in our lives? What are the most prominent wishes that seem to manifest our thoughts? Many of my clients tell me, and I'm sure most of you will agree, there are two distinct desires that most of us strive for in our lives:

Making Mistakes and Redefining Success
One of the most common reasons we don't set and achieve goals is our fear that we might make a mistake. We want to be guaranteed that we will succeed before we step out and take any risks. Yet in waiting for this elusive guarantee we overlook a basic truth: mistakes are the way we learn!
Making Goals Work: The Essential Elements of a Goals Program
Have you ever had a goal that just didn't seem to progress? Perhaps a weight loss goal or maybe developing a new market opportunity. "What's the problem with this goal?" you wonder. Why can't you achieve it as you have so many others?
Making a career in mid-sized organisations
Mid sized companies must survive and prosper within the free market system ,not outside of it ,facing its force directly ,not protected by artificial barriers .Smaller firms must compete effectively against mammoths and gnats ,guarding and guaranteeing their own existence . Anything less is self defeating for the firm and counter-productive for society . Life dependent on largesse is life dependent on wind .
Make Up Excuses Why You Can
We all have excuses as to why we can't do something. Ask anyone and they can give you a million excuses why it can't be done, why they haven't moved forward on their goals, and on and on. Making up excuses takes a lot of energy and time. So since, as humans, we seem to enjoy making up excuses, I have a great idea. Lets make up excuses why we can.

Make Better New Year's Resolutions - And Keep Them!
Every year as Jan. 1 approaches, people begin to look back at the year that has passed and look forward to the year that is ahead. It is considered a new beginning. Today’s world will cause many people to evaluate their lives in a different light and resolve to make a plan to better themselves. It is a popular custom – New Year’s Resolutions.
Make and Keep Commitments that Matter
I often explain coaching by telling people that I help clients "make and keep the commitments that matter: to themselves, their families, their work, their communities."
Losing your biggest customer
Q: I was moving to my dream with my own business when -- wham! I lost my largest customer. I'm hurting, both emotionally and financially. What now?
Lose your career and find a new life
I hear from many people who feel trapped in a career after fifteen or twenty happy, productive years. It's been a good ride, they say, but now it's time to jump off the train. They want to fulfill a creative dream, recover from burnout or just try something new. The old challenge is now a "been there, done that."
Looking Back Helps Us Move Forward
I find the end of a year to be a time of reflection. For me it is important to formally "complete" the year that is closing so that I can set my intentions for the year that is before me.

Let's face it. We’ve all been through a powerful seminar or an enlightening personal development group of tapes and we emerge with a lightbulb above our heads and happy thoughts such as ‘what a great concept!

Take heart, this article takes about five minutes to read, but you need to apply the concepts within. As a coach, I help my clients to stay focused and create strategies for their goals and I have developed structures that work well in getting from the ‘great idea?stage to integrating it in to their lives.

Resolutions and goals intimidate many people. What immediately comes to mind are memories of past failures, the hard work involved, and the fact that there is no guarantee of success.
Infinite Patience Produces Immediate Results
Practice putting yourself in a state of absolute certainty. In this state you are being certain. Being certain means that you are feeling certain, thinking certain, speaking as a certain person and taking action as someone who is certain. This means that you have evolved to a place of knowing. Knowing that you will achieve your goals. You will know that you are there because you have eliminated doubt and you know that your goal outcome will be done.

Although I did very well at my job, I wasn't enjoying it. I also knew I wasn't living up to my full potential.

Great Goals Make You Stretch!
I began enhancing my personal energy level three months shy of my 40th birthday and after 2 years of struggling with clinically-diagnosed depression. During this same period, I was challenged immensely by the debilitating effects of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and being rendered permanently partially disabled as the result of being involved in two car accidents in six days (neither of which was I at fault). I recall an incredible sense of emptiness and a daunting feeling of being completely overwhelmed; especially when trying to figure out which pills went with what ills. Unable to return to the vocation I loved, I received disability payments and simply existed. Most of my time was spent in bed where I eventually became 48 pounds "over-fat."

Goals: A 10 Part Formula for Setting and Achieving Your Goals
We all know about setting goals, and New Year is a time when many of us tend to make those new goals. Most of the time we make them with great intentions. We have high hopes for success, and we get excited. We join that health club to get in shape or to lose those extra few pounds. We make that career change, doing that one special thing we have always dreamed about. We all want to achieve our dreams, hopes and aspirations, but for one reason or the other we frequently never see those goals that are so important to us through to action.
Goals, Purpose and Meaning
When reviewing your goals (which you should consider doing regularly), keep in mind the following thoughts: Goals are usually materialistic, that is in the ‚outside' world, and refer to things we want to get or to do at or within a certain period of time. But this is kind of superficial, one-sided. What you should also consider doing (probably even the first thing in this process) is to define your purpose, your meaning of life. Find answers to the following questions: ‚Why are you doing what you are doing, why are you living?' - in non-materialistic terms! If you can't answer these questions first, you will not have a solid base, and all goals will just be a shallow, useless escape- and compensation mechanism for the inner deficits.
Goals- The Power Line to Success and Achievement
