The End of the Year

In a few hours 2010 will pass us by and a new year will begin. How will you reach your goals for 2011? For many people, their new years resolution may be to lose weight, save more money, spend more time with friends and family, pick up a hobby, just to name a few.

How will you fully accomplish your resolution? Write it down, develop a plan, set goals, and act on it. Some people may not achieve their resolutions for various reasons, and one very large obstacle in my opinion are the people around you. Are you in an environment that will encourage you to be better and help you reach your goals? Or are you in an environment that will sabotage you?

What do I mean by this? If you got all the right steps in place (planning, setting goals, and doing) the one thing that can stop you are the people that you associate with. Have you ever wanted to do something and got criticized? "You can never do it!" "don't waste your time its very unlikely to work". Whenever you set your mind and heart on a particular task, you need to be surrounded by people that will support you and encourage you to achieve. Being around negative people will only bring you down.

Set your heart to what you want to do, it will be tough, but remember character is not built when you are up high. It is when you are down low, and how you ultimately decide to handle the situation at hand.



Good Luck!
