Hi all

Happy New Year to everyone! 🙂 😀 🙂 😀

I hope 2011 brings greater freedom in all it’s forms. My main goals for this year are to work on improving finances and commit to a writing project that’s been on the backburner for too long. The second goal is well underway and that makes me happy. 🙂 What goals do others have for the year?

Blessings,

Hi Mr Summit

Good for you! And I guess you’ve already satisfied what was a huge goal in coming out, originally planned for this month but accomplished earlier. How free and different you must be feeling now. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Hurray for you! And may your sense of growing freedom increase!

Blessings,

Happy New Year everyone!

I am commencing studies for my degree this year, so my goal is to be successful at that. It will require discipline and focus to get me through it. I also want to try and get more exercise, continue my healthy eating routine and get back to my goal weight of 65kg (I put a little on over Christmas!)

I am interested in Numerology and I see that this year is a 4 both personally and universally, this is a good year to commence studies because it is a “hard work” year which will pay rewards for routine, discipline and diligence. So it’s a nose to the grindstone year for me.

Blessings!

Hi avb

Yes I recently thought of you and your date with the BF within…. Love that! 🙂 🙂 🙂

I also have a similar ritual. It’s a sacred occasion that I look forward to all year. A time of self nurture, including celebration of accomplishments past plus anticipation and planning for the year ahead. I ask for direction and vision for the upcoming year and always receive a message or words to give me a great focus. I then write out goals I want to achieve and break them into smaller steps with timelines. I always make the goals achievable and start straight away which gives me the motivation to continue on when most have forgotten what their resolutions were. Doing this really sets me off to a good start.

I also like your idea of mindfully letting go of negative energy rather than unconsciously taking it into the new year. Thanks for sharing.

Blessings,

Hi AVB,

I love the idea of going on a date with the boyfriend within. If there’s one thing I’ve learnt recently, it’s that the more loving I am to myself, the more attractive I am to others. I think I’m going to start some kind of regular date thing with my boyfriend within — beautiful.

As for my goals, last year I put on hold my book that was to be launched at Adelaide’s Feast Festival and came to Melbourne to care for my Grandma. She was going through a health crisis and it would have been hypocritical to finish and launch a book dedicated to her while I ignored her present needs.

My first goal for this year, then, is to finish that book and launch it.

After that, my goal will be to devote 3 months to getting my body into shape. Even though I’m flabby now, I have a few things going for me — world champion athlete genes, I’m perfectly proportioned, I have muscle memory from being in shape before, I have P90X (an extreme fitness DVD program), and once I set my mind to something I’m ruthless about getting it done.

I have a lot more goals I’m working on at any one time, but only ever one major goal.

Have a happy 2011 everyone and lead lives of significance. It’s not the impact of what you do that matters, but how what you do resonates long after you’ve left that counts.
