Chelsea's Top 5 Things to do to jump start the new year1. Create a 2010 "Goals in a nutshell" list
* Similar to A Bucket List, your 2010 "Goals in a nutshell" outlines the things you would like to do, be, and achieve for the year to come. Allow this to encompass all areas of your life: career, financial, fitness, nutrition, continuing education, personal development, family and relationships
2. Set small monthly goals for yourself
* Now that you know what you would like to accomplish during the 12 months of 2010, establish mini goals each month. Similar to creating deadlines for each individual goal, this will also keep your "goals in a nutshell" list manageable and allow you to track your progress in four week intervals.
3. Keep the promises and commitments you make to yourself.
* At the beginning of the year it is tradition to make several resolutions; however it is common that most resolutions will be broken and forgotten by the end of the year, if not much sooner. When you create your "goals in a nutshell" list for 2010 you are making promises and commitments to yourself, you are paving your path for the year to come, and you are establishing personal goals for success. In my opinion keeping the promises and commitments we make to ourselves is a fundamental priority and a key necessity to living the life we choose and desire.
4. Clean and organize your house, desk, refrigerator, closet,
purse, backpack, car and office.
* Cleanliness and order is key to preparing for success. When there is chaos, there is clutter, and where there is clutter there is in most cases the inability to function at your optimal ability and capacity. This may take some time - a few good projects to break down into daily and weekly things to do - however you will find when you and your space are organized you will have more motivation and it will be easier to think and function.
5. ENJOY THE MOMENTS
* Not too long ago a very important person in my life held me in his arms on a day that I felt overwhelmed by all of the things I thought I had to do and said," All we have are the moments so begin to enjoy all of the things you choose to do." Aside from feeling safe in his arms, what he said made absolute simple sense to me. Quite frankly, we do not have to do anything. We choose to do everything. And it's the moments - whether enjoyable or downright annoying- that create memories. What do you want to remember?
