2008 was great, what is your plan for 2009!

I don’t know about you, but as far as I am concerned 2008 was great. I do not waste my time crying over spilt milk in regards to what went wrong in my life, or as far as that goes in 2008, but I like to rejoice everyday about the things that went right and the possibilities of tomorrow. I am watching less and less TV news and listening to the radio news because all they want to talk about is the negative, what went wrong etc.

This is the holiday season, and since it should be a good time of the year, spend time this new years living in the good memories of the year. Don’t get me wrong, my life is not all perfect. I have as many challenges and setbacks as everyone on the street, I just choose to not let it determine my outlook and disposition on life.

As I have said over and over to many I encounter – you have two choices everyday – be positive or negative, which do you choose?

As far as 2009 is concerned, I am so excited. A new year with new possibilities. What could be greater? I view the New Year as a clean slate. A time to sweep out the old and bring in the new – new possibilities of great things to come!!!

I read an interesting article online the other day and have been thinking it about it since. I liked what it was saying about instead of New Year resolutions that focus on something negative, set goals towards something positive. The article said it is always easier to move towards something than away from something! So in other words visualize something positive you want to work towards, not something negative you want to work away from. Example, instead of working to lose weight – move away from being overweight etc, set a goal as to how you want to look, live, feel – in other words move towards something positive. This thought really got me thinking about the New Year and my plan for 2009.

I love the way things come together in my life. A couple years ago I discovered a thing called a Vision Board. That concept focuses around visualizing on what you want in life. In other words moving towards something. This concept as to how to approach the New Year is along that line. So this year I am working on my plan for myself, not just for the year, but a lifestyle that will carry on to my goals. Setting up towards the positive is a better indicator you will succeed. I have done this several times over the past couple years and it works. I will not do this for the New Year as I plan my 2009.

So, what are you plans for 2009? 2009 will be a great year, every year I am alive is as far as I am concerned. This year focus on the positive and see just how big an impact it will have on your life. Remember, some days it may be difficult, but make it part of your plan for 09 to be positive and move towards positive goals.
