Many of us look forward to the New Year as a time to refresh, start anew and accomplish goals and make resolutions to get some things accomplished. Problem is, we don’t make the resolutions until he spur of the moment on at New Year’s and don’t book in the time to make sure they happen.
Pull out your calendar and next year’s as well. Don’t have next year’s yet? (That was #24). Start by booking yourself some serious time to think about your vision for your life next year. An hour alone is a great time to start but a three hour stint or 3, one hour sessions is not too long. Get it booked before the holiday swirl robs you of your planning time.
Take a look at next year’s calendar and start to book in the things you want to accomplish. Loose weight? Book in your time in the gym, your session with your trainer, time to investigate a nutritionist. Whatever it will take, get it booked.
Putting things in black and white on paper has a way of increasing the intention and commitment from “would really like to” (i.e. not likely to happen) to “am really going to”. Clear your vision for your life, get those goals identified and book them into your life.
Enjoy looking forward to the New Year and all the great things you will accomplish. Aim high.

24. Check your December calendar and ensure that it is up to date with all the social commitments you have for the month. Make sure it includes any items that you need to take to those social commitments. Book in the time to make/purchase the items you will be taking. Find out who is cooking the Christmas dinner that you will be attending. Is it you?
