Thoughts for the New Year
Change
If you are stuck in the same old same old,
try something new.Change your hair, you job,
your location, your furniture around or your attitude. Remember life is not static, change is inevitable and it’s good for you.
your location, your furniture around or your attitude. Remember life is not static, change is inevitable and it’s good for you.
Learn Something New
Learn to sew, cook or learn how to fix
things. Take up salsa dancing, painting, quilting or
ping pong. Learn something you don’t know how to do but always wanted to learn.

Get Organized
We all have way too much crap. That is why
you see storage places popping up everywhere.
If you are a collector of whatever…. stop it already, you have enough. Clean it up, throw it out or donate it. Every space does not have to have something on it. Clear your corners, and closet, pick up the stuff that has been sitting around forever. Clean off your dresser, nobody needs to see the lotion or the foot powder or the hair products or the makeup etc. And when you finally do clean, don’t buy any plastic bins, uses boxes and haul it away.

Travel/Reconnect
If you have the money and the time get out
of the country. Don’t have that much money?
Then get out of the state. Go visit friends or family or someone who might enjoy your company
for a few days. See people in person… Not on Facebook. Plan a get together that is
not at a wedding or funeral.

Get Healthy
MAKE TIME for exercise at least 5 days a
week, find something you like. Run.
If you don’t like running then walk. Swim. Lift weights. Start with 2 to 3 pounds.
Do some Yoga or Pilates. Take a class or get some CD’s. Just do it no excuses.

EAT BETTER. There are hundreds of food plans
that you can chose from and
they all try to tell you what is best. Forget them. And you don’t need to be a vegetarian either.
You just need to do a few things:
they all try to tell you what is best. Forget them. And you don’t need to be a vegetarian either.
You just need to do a few things:
Get off the sugar (fruit sugar included) and
processed salt,
Eat whole foods
Eat free ranged or hormone free meats
Drink water
No preservatives, MSG, or additives.
Eat some junk once and a while and on
holidays, nobody’s perfect
Drink wine
Embrace Technology
Technology is moving at a rapid pace so keep
up. The good old days were fun and all but
THEY AIN'T COMING BACK, get over it. That doesn't mean that you have
to scroll through your phone all day and everywhere you go or check email 50 times a day,
you just need to know how to use it. Get rid of the phone book and all things obsolete, unless valuable.

Let it Go
The resentment, anger, stress, whatever or
whoever it is that is causing the ill will… Let it GO.
Get Prepared
Get
your house in order, your will, your life insurance, your 401K, your SS info
and
all necessary papers. Keep all your passwords and account numbers on an Excel spread sheet
and let someone responsible know where you keep everything. Name the file “You’re Welcome,” because they will thank you.
