Create a Fast Start for 2010

1.

Be Awake ~ Mentally throw yourself into an icy lake of realism every day. Wake up to your present reality. Look it straight in the eye. Appreciate all that is good and accept or change what isn’t! Be present each and every day! It’s the most productive state possible to achieve your goals for the year.

 

2.

Move out of Your Comfort Zones ~ the natural tendency for most of us is to stay where it’s “comfortable”. Break through comfort zones by taking intelligent risks. Try new ideas, trust your instincts, and implement new behaviors. Take a chance! If you are feeling UNcomfortable, you are on the right track. If you are still feeling cozy, increase the risk. You can do it! You’ll gain pride and self respect each time you take a chance to grow!

3.

Immediately stop performing tasks that produce zero or little return. Focus on activities that produce the highest results possible. This is the key to successful prioritization. This is the magic wand of time management. Identify activities that produce the greatest results in relationship to your 2010 goals. Then, focus the majority of your time in these areas each day.

4.

Foster your energy level. The higher your energy, the greater your results. Your energy level can be divided into three categories

  1. Mindset ~ Positive Thoughts + Positive Feelings = Positive Outcomes. Fill your mind and body with the following words and feelings. Prosperity, joy, love, patience, courage, pioneer spirit, persistence, heart, commitment, trust respect, consideration and humility. Surround every situation with these words and feelings. Watch your creativity and innovation increase as well as your energy. Positive breeds positive!
  2. Nutrition ~ Focus on fresh! Every day make sure your diet includes: fruits and vegetables such as lemons, carrots, apples and greens. Don’t forget nuts, raisins, green tea, pomegranate juice, oatmeal, yogurt and water. Make it easy and be consistent.
  3. Physical ~ move, breathe, challenge! Move your body daily ~ At work or at play… run, walk, go to the gym. Breathe correctly by taking big deep breaths from your stomach. Increased oxygen intake is critical to maximize your thinking and performance level. Drink water when you need an energy boost. The oxygen in the water creates the energy boost. Work out four days a week for a minimum of 30 minutes. As fast as the business world is spinning, energy is critical to your overall success. By taking care of body, you are taking care of your future
