What Now!?

Ok, what now?

Jesus' birthday is over, you've eaten too much and exercised too little...what do you do now?

You know you want to get rid of the "extra" that you put on over the last seven weeks, you know that golf season is around the corner and will be here quicker than you can swing a club at, you know that you need direction for the change you want to begin, but you just don't know what to do!

I am here to tell you that "it's ok."

According to research, most people are feeling the same way the day after Christmas, so it's not just you!

First things first.

Since 1/1/09 is a week away, get started on your 2009 "Life Change Plan." That's right, your "Life Change Plan," NOT new years resolutions!

If you want change you need to speak in "change" language! Forget the soft talk that will only make you forget about the serious changes you wanted to inact around the beginning of the year, and all of the sudden it's Valentines day; and you have done nothing to take steps toward the successful accomplishments of your goals.

What is the "LIfe Change Plan?"
Simple...

1. It's a list of particular areas of your life that you want to permanently change.
2. It's your Life
3. It's your Change(s)
4. It's your Plan
5. This is your road map and plan to implement them so the changes become your new reality- not the same ol, same ol.
6. It's your way (and others if you share) to hold yourself accountable.
7. It is a commitment. Period.

This is what I recommend,

1. Make a list of the things you want to change- all of them, in as much detail as possible.
2. Break them out into "categories." A couple of my categories are family, personal and spiritual.
3. Create a commitment to self statement like I listed in a few blogs earlier. Once completed, make copies and put them in places of high traffic like the bathroom, office, car, etc., so you can constantly reinforce your vision.
4. Share it, with those who will support you and encourage you.
5. DO NOT let anyone push you off your direction...NEVER!
6. Keep seeing yourself already as attained your goal. For example- see yourself skinnier, wealthier, healthier, wiser, or whatever it is.
7. Live #6
8. Be grateful about everything no matter what! Stop whining! We are the most blessed people in the world, so keep things in perspective!
9. If you believe in it, pray about your changes, give it to God.
10. Now go do it!

PLEASE, PLEASE commit to change for yourself, it's just you and your all you got...not to mention, you deserve it. :)
