I think one of the biggest mistakes I made in 2011 is not setting enough goals. Actually I think my goal for 2011 was simply to be 'better', a better mother, a better wife, a better friend, a better person. Not that there is anything wrong with that goal however I think my lack of goals resulted in me not excelling the way I could have done.
2012 will be a different year because I have BIG AUDACIOUS goals for next year. One of the things that was almost depleted in 2011 was my level of 'expectations', that is such a dangerous place to be in simply because in life, you get what you EXPECT!
If you expect to get things wrong you will get things wrong. If you expect to get things right you will get things right. If you expect to lose you will lose, if you expect to win you will win. If you expect to fail you will fail, if you expect to succeed GUESS WHAT?
I want to encourage you to DREAM BIG in 2012. Despite the recession, the news reports, the economy and your circumstances DREAM BIG! You only have one life and one chance to live it so why not live it FULLY and TO THE MAX!
Below I have suggested 3 things you can do in 2012 to assist you along your journey of living the life of your dreams.
1. Set at least 12 BIG AUDACIOUS goals.
I'm talking about the kind of goals that people would laugh at. Did you know the number one reason why most people never achieve their goals?? Because they never set any! Don't settle for less in 2012, DREAM BIG. Write that book, start that business, go for that promotion, visit that country, think and live outside the box, there is no time like the present to live the life of your dreams.
2. Read a 'Better' Book.
The kind of book that will enable and empower you to become 'better'. Whether it be in love, life, business, fitness, health or otherwise. I can honestly say that I have read so many books that have literally CHANGED my life. I haven't always been a lover of books but it is a habit that can easily be developed. All the secrets of success are hidden in the pages of a great book.
3. Live life on Purpose.
If you don't know what your purpose in life is, the time to find out is NOW. You only have one life to live and you only get one chance to live it. This is NOT a dress rehearsal, this is the real thing. Today is yesterday’s tomorrow. This simply means that there will come a day when you will run out of time. Don't keep putting things off, stop saying 'I will get it done tomorrow', or 'I will do that thing in the future'. This is it, the time is NOW. Make 2012 be the year when you did the thing you have always wanted to do.
Imagine looking back in December 2012 and being proud of yourself because you did at least ONE thing that you have wanted to do for years. Imagine......
You can do it.
Dream BIG in 2012....I DARE YOU!!
