How to make your 2011 resolutions . . . and keep them :-)

What would life be like if you had “more” . . .

Imagine — and dream, if you will — what your life would look like if you had more money.

What about if you had more energy?

  • more influence
  • more respect
  • more clothes
  • more friends
  • more passions
  • etc.

You get the idea, right?

Take any — or all — of those dream-wishes and just think about how your life would change.

Would any one of those dream-wishes make a significant difference in your satisfaction with life?

It’s Dec 31, and I was riding my bike home from yoga thinking about how my life might be different if I did have more money [How to become rich & famous on the web].

Personally, I love the Challenge. I know we have all heard of celebrities [relatives, politicos, etc.] with more money than they know what to do with (i.e. more money than brains). Are their lives better than mine? than yours?

So it occurred to me that we all ought to “Be Careful What We Wish For” — and, then, i.e. if we are “careful” [and one of my favorite words "deliberate"], then we can make realistic objectives that we can accomplish through Focus and Effort.

What do you think?

How would your life be different if you had “more”?

How do you INTEND to get there?

    Soooo mush to be grateful for, like family & friends as 2010 comes to a close. The more I have and achieve, the more I can give to others and inspire them to become more of themselves. Have more only makes you more of who you really are. Here’s to a more healthy and more prospersous 2011!!!

      I’ll drink to that. :-)
      But I did like this “resolution” I put on Facebook: “Make at least 5 positive, like-minded friends and foster strong relationships with them”

      Now, the “dream,” i.e. what will life be like with five new friends :-)

  2. Oh I thought the post was going to be about keeping my 2011 resolutions! What I would like to have more of is energy and enthusiasm/passion. Having more money can’t give me those things, nor deeper relationships and more fun with my partner. The real riches in life are not able to be bought with money.

      Glad you “asked” Belinda, i.e., for how to keep those resolutions. :-)
      My experience is that IF/WHEN you want something badly enough AND you “know” what it will mean to achieve that goal, then it is “easy” to stay on track.
      That’s how I recently lost 17 pounds and WILL keep them off this time!!!!
