Week 2 New Year New You!

Week 2: It’s week 2 of our journey into Life Makeovers by Cheryl Richardson. I hope you all had a chance to get your copies by now. If not I listed above the action steps for the week so you can follow along until you get your copy.
Last week we listed 5 of our most important accomplishments and 3 ways in which we’ve
grown this past year. I hope in doing this you were able to see how magnificent you truly are and just how much your capable of doing. We tend to forget sometimes so the reminder is great! Moving on to week 2.

Week 2 is: New Year/New You
This chapter invites us to dig deeper and come up with an internal goal instead of an external goal. Instead of goal setting on what you want to bring into your life it asks you to think of one way in which you can personally develop or a way in which you can strengthen your character. Some examples are:

Become financially responsible.
Be patient.
Be open minded.

It then suggests
that we follow a 3 Step Process:
Step 1:
Write a positive affirmation in the present tense that relates to this goal.
Step 2:
Print out the affirmation and hang it somewhere you will see it throughout the
day.
Step 3:
Chose 3 actions you can take during the next week to begin developing this
quality right away.
Your Homework is:
Write about the quality you’d most like to develop.
Write an affirmation.
Decide which 3 action steps you will take to accomplish this goal.
Once again check out the valuable references at the end of the chapter. Till next week.
Have a great week ladies.

Happy New Year it's 2012

Happy New Year! It’s 2012 and I can hardly believe it, where does the time go? For most of us we spend so much of our time running around trying to do so much we lose track of days,
months and sometimes years. It’s time to get proactive about our lives and take some much needed time for ourselves. I was pondering what book I could share with you that could help you have a more productive year. Life Makeovers by Cheryl Richardson 52 Practical & Inspiring Ways to Improve Your Life One Week at a time seemed to be the best one to fit the bill. This book is divided into the 52 weeks of the year providing you with one action step that you can take each week to improve your life (easy enough).

Week 1: The Journey Begins:
What I love about this beginning to the New Year is that it’s asks you to reflect on the
past year and write down all of the things you did right not focus on what you did wrong. It asks you a series of questions to get you going. This helps you start the New Year in a positive light rather than regretting what now is past. Every chapter has small action steps. In this chapter you list your 5 most important accomplishments. And 3 ways in which you’ve grown in the past year. At the end of every chapter you have a list of very valuable resources for further exploration. I highly recommend digging deeper into these resources they are amazing. Until next week, here is to a happy, healthy, new you.
