Note from Johnetta
As the storm swept across the United States, we had our first big snowfall here on the East Coast. The snow was dry which made it perfect for making snowballs and snowwomen and men! White snow at this time of the year help to make a cheerful and joyous holiday spirit.
 
In ten days, year 2010 will be here. Have you written your wellness and business goals for the the new year? I'm still in the process of throwing away papers that are collecting dust and filing others. Meanwhile I've been writing goals and the necessary steps to achieve those goals. My new Qi Gong Cd's have arrived I've begun to indulge in home spa treatments regularly.
The feature article focuses on goals and planning. Brian Tracey has captured the essence of tha so I've included his article.
To your success and wellness in the New Year....
Enjoy.

Create Your Personal Strategic Plan
By Brian Tracy
 
Your success in life is determined, to a large extent by your ability to think, plan, decide, and take action. The stronger your skills are in each of these areas, the faster you will achieve your goals and the happier you will be with your life and career. Personal strategic planning is the tool that takes you from wherever you are to wherever you want to go.

Difference between Train and Plane
The difference between people who use strategic planning to organize and direct their lives and those who do not is like the difference between taking a train and taking a plane. Both will get you from point A to point B, but the plane--personal strategic planning--will get you there much faster and without frequent stops.

Systematic Way of Thinking
Skill in personal strategic planning is not something you are born with, like eye color or perfect pitch. It is a systematic way of thinking and acting and is, therefore, something you can learn, like riding a bike or changing a tire. With practice, you can master the many different elements that make up this key skill, and you will get into the rhythm of thinking and acting strategically for the rest of your life. When you do acquire rhythm, you will realize extraordinary results. Your life and career will take off, and the sky is truly the limit.
 
Design Your Life and Career
Your goals in personal strategic planning are similar. The key difference is that rather than improving your return on equity, your planning efforts will allow you to realize a greater return on energy. You might say that personal strategic planning will increase your return on life. A business measures its equity in terms of financial capital. On the other hand, you measure your personal equity in terms of your own human capital. Your personal equity consists of the physical, emotional, and mental energies you are able to invest in your career. Set a goal of achieving the very highest return possible on the investment of your energies." ~B.Tracy
 
Wellness goals and planning to obtain those goals will have a major impact on a wellness lifestyle, families and businesses. How does optimal wellness affect your financial wellness and your familily?

Long Playing Records
Have you or your family thrown away those LP records? Can't find those classics, such as Nat King Cole or Tony Bennett, on CDs?  Seems like LP albums are making a  comeback. Best Buy has replaced their LP rack. Glad I kept my Nate King Cole Christmas album--play it every year!
