All my best wishes for you and your loved ones
Full of Joy and Enlivening Experiences
(if they don’t coming knocking on your door, then go create them yourself)
Dear fitness, wellness and World interested blog follower and reader,
Have a festive evening and morning – and new year – filled with happiness and excitement about 2014.
New Year’s resolutions? Ease up on them. Instead give your willpower a basic exercise program! And have a ‘new year cleaning’; trash what is bugging you and make room for invigorating changes; put exact words to your wishes, then they often come true (goal setting really does work).
To you and your loved ones – I wish you
A Happy and Prosperous New Year 2014

On the last days of the year it is time to take stock and set new goals. Time and time again it has been proven, that by reflecting, taking the time to think things over, evaluating, learning from experience, and setting specific goals and writing them down, the chances of reaching one’s goals, a.o. new habits, are vastly improved.
So do it now. Take 5 minutes off for reflection and goal setting.
Taking stock
Take a look back upon the past year. Do it in an ‘appreciative’ way; be thankful for all of the good things, miss out any ‘failures’ and ponder upon the successes; what went well (and how)!
Onwards:
Same questions, e.g. “what is your most exciting experience this year” can be used for more interesting (New Year’s) dinner conversations.
Goal setting (realistic dream goals)
Now write down 10 goals for the new year, for family, lifestyle, job, school, leisure time, sport, whatever comes to mind.
When your main goals are listed, then break them down into manageable smaller goals.
Integrate those on your daily to-do list onwards. Do something, small (or big) things, every day, until you reach your goal(s).
Recommendation: Start today!
Enjoy,
Best wishes from me to you and your loved ones,
HAPPY NEW YEAR
