Archive for December, 2009

Last new year’s day, my husband and I made a special effort to set aside time to envision our year ahead. We went away, had a nice dinner (duck & sparkling wine, my faves). We then spent the first day of 2009 planning, envisioning and goal-setting. As a result, we’ve had one of the most productive years of our lives. Thinking about it made me want to share these tips to help you make 2010 one of YOUR most wonderful years ever.

After a recent trip to San Diego, I started to read “Happy for No Reason.” In it, Marci Shimoff states that she was 13 when she decided to be a motivational speaker. She had just heard Zig Ziglar and she wanted to “do that!” I could relate to her story, though not quite as certainly. I mean at age thirteen, growing up in Puerto Rico, when the circus came to town I wanted to be a trapeze artist!
