New Year – New You

OH NO!! you might be thinking that this is yet ANOTHER New Years Resolution post.   It is not!!

In fact I don’t “do” resolutions.  As most of you know, resolutions are easily made, but seldom kept, with most being broken by the first week in January.

What I DO do, is have a strategic plan for my year.  This is broken down to a Quarterly Plan, Monthly Plan and finally Daily Tasks.  That is not to say that I am so scheduled that there is no room for spontaneity and fun.  My daily tasks are flexible enough to cope with almost any diversion without causing the whole plan to implode.

So how to start?

To move forward, you first need to know where you are right now. Take a good hard look at the state of your life and decide – REALLY decide to move each area just one step closer to your version of perfect.  

Now the point here is to look at YOUR version of perfect.  The perfect holiday for instance for me is not a 5 star hotel, but rather a cute cottage by the beach or in the country that is close to a farmers market where hubby and I can buy some amazing local produce and spend a lazy afternoon cooking up a superb meal.

To help guide you to see where you are right now, and them move forward, why not take a look at my

“It Is What It Is But It Will Become What You Make It”

I saw this quote on Pinterest today as a wall mural.  You can buy it here

What a powerful message… Sure life hands us all lemons occasionally, but the mindset to “make lemonade” is an admirable quality, that I try to live to.

When I read this, I was reminded of a friend of mine just recently.  The closure of his bricks and mortar retail store, an impossibly hot Queensland summer week in a house with no air conditioning, bushfires around and just to top it off him and his wife were struck down with Whooping Cough ?

It would have been enough to make most people curl up in a tight ball of self-pity.    Instead, this man picked himself up every morning and got on with the DOING.   He has been learning the ropes of online selling and this week, without the restraints of the retail store,  has kicked the proverbial butt.

Online stores have been built, products have been sourced, great images taken and decent images shot.  The next step, of which I have no doubt will happen VERY quickly, is to run a Facebook campaign with the aim of going viral and drive lots of buyers to his products just in time for Christmas.

So not only has he made “lemonade,” I think there might be a good shot of Vodka in that tasty drink too 🙂

He has certainly proven to me this week that while “It is what it is”  with the right mindset “it will become whatever YOU make it”

May we all have the power to do the same 🙂
