Get Energized in the New Year!
I referenced people who start off the New Year with great momentum, and then their energy and focus begins to drop by late Winter or early Spring.
On the flip side, there are people who always realize their New Year's resolution. They attract great opportunities and seem to experience more luck than the average person. Their formula is quite simple, and involves three "Turn-Around" steps.
- Vision - Get really clear about what you Do and Don't want.
- Connection - Strengthen your belief in the possibility of attaining your goal and experience how great it feels to reach your goal; "act as if" it is present - NOW! Be open to the infinite opportunities available to you
- Action - Take small, action steps every day towards your goal, and actually develop a new lifestyle around your New Year's goals.
Let's start by building a solid foundation for you to experience great success in 2006 by increasing your natural power - eliminate energy drains and replace them with positive energy boosters to build energy reserves!
- What are some of your emotional energy drains - other people's expectations, worry, overcommitment? Positive energy boosters include connecting with at least 3 people with whom you can freely express yourself, having very clear boundaries about how people can communicate with you, and making sure that people honor those boundaries.
- What physical energy drains do you experience - lack of exercise, inadequate restful sleep, poor nutrition? Energy boosters include feeding your body the fuel that supports it, exercising regularly and in healthy ways that you enjoy, and regularly having quiet or down time to prepare for restful sleep.
- Are there incompletions cluttering your life and draining your energy? Much of the stress that people feel doesn't come from having too much to do. It comes from not finishing what they started.
Decide which things you can delegate, and then make a list of your top 5 that you need to clean up. Choose one right now and DO IT! Then, each morning, choose another item on your list and finish it by the end of the day. Limit yourself to 1 item per day so you'll stay motivated.
Make cleaning up fun! Listen to your favorite music, plan a way to reward yourself once you're done, or call a friend and challenge him or her to join you. If the idea of doing these things is overwhelming, consider using the power of group energy.
