Your Next Ten Years Begin TODAY

In about six weeks, the year ends. The DECADE ends. And it is critical when approaching or crossing such thresholds to ask who you want to be at the end of THAT decade.

Who do you want to be?

Where do you want your relationships to be?

What kind of physical vibrancy do you want?

What do you want your finances to be?

What contribution do you want to have made to the world?

What if what was holding you back was pain, guilt, blame, or bullshit, twisted images of yourself or old scar tissue? What might you have to give up in order to bring your dreams to life?

How would you have to end THIS year, this decade to CATAPULT yourself into the new years? And no, you can’t base all of it on what happens in the external world. There will always be people who do WORSE than average, and others who do BETTER than average, in any of the arenas you can mention. Do you want to be the former, or the latter?

If your goals, your vision of yourself is unique to your vision, your heart…if they answer the question “Who am I?” then you need to commit to being the best YOU you can be, and step into your excellence.

To commit to being better every day than you were yesterday at what YOU care about, and to be sure that your daily actions are in alignment with your long-term dreams.

In your relationships
