MESSAGE
FROM THE PRESIDENT |
|
|
|
 |
The year is quickly coming to a
close.
Only 3 weeks until New Year's Eve!
Hopefully, you've accomplished the
goals you set for yourself or at
least made substantial progress
toward them.
I am always looking toward the
horizon, striving to become a better
friend, more loving wife, more
engaged volunteer and more
successful business owner. |
|
|
|
I am amazed at what I've
accomplished this year and even more amazed
at the length (still) of my short- and
long-term to-do list!
Harvard Business School did a
study that underscored the importance of
goal-setting and it's impact on income and
satisfaction in life. Apparently, the
value of goal setting isn't just setting a
goal and doggedly pursuing it no matter
what.
The critical factor is the establishment and
pursuit of goals. So celebrate when
you 'win', but don't rest on your laurels
too long:-) |

FEATURE ARTICLE –
STRIVE TO ARRIVE & THRIVE |
|
|
|
| |
I'm pictured here with Brittanee Perkins,
the 2009 Miss Black Arizona (and former Band
student of my husband, Karl) along with
Rozan Latham, Miss Black Teen Arizona.
I
attended the Phoenix Black Chamber Awards
Banquet last week and noticed two
'princesses' walking through the crowd. Then
said to myself, "Hey I know one of those
princesses!" So I want over to
congratulate them.
One of the first things Brittannee said was
"Wish us luck!" I said, 'Luck? For
what? You just won!'
She replied, "We're going to to compete at
Nationals!"

Forward progress
depends on goals. What will you strive
for next year?
Here are some tips to
help you get on your way.
-
Release your
limits & let go of negative thinking
We often talk
ourselves out of 'going for it' before
we even begin. We think we can't
so we don't try. They guess what?
We won't!
-
Consult your
heart & unleash your dreams
Your heart knows
best. Your brain will try to talk
you out of your dreams in order to
'protect' you from failure. Don't listen
to it.
-
Lay out a plan
You can't
just snap your fingers and make it so.
You need to figure out the steps to
reach your goal.
-
Get the
resources you need
Don't try to do it
alone. You'll exhaust yourself.
There are people around you who want to
help and who would love to participate
with you in some way. Take classes
if you need more knowledge.
Outsource as much as you can
-
Get to work
As one of my
clients, John Ficorelli, sales executive
extraordinaire, said "It's one thing to
have a plan. It's quite
another to actually execute it!"
Take some time over
the holiday season to intentionally dream
and plan for next year. Extract
yourself from the hustle-bustle and give
yourself a gift - the highest, best future
you are meant to live.

FEATURED RESOURCE –
WANT TO REDUCE YOUR STRESS?? MINI MEDITATIONS
CD |
|
|
|
|
|
I
created this CD for busy executives.
It includes 5 guided meditations that
transport you completely away from the
current moment and into separate worlds of
peace, creativity and collaboration.
Most are less than 12 minutes. Close
your door and eyes and regain your sanity in
less time that it takes to drink a cup of
coffee. Use the longer one to fall asleep at
night.
Makes a great stocking stuffer or grab bag
