C&A

Challenge: Create positive affirmations. Sometimes we forget to take time to build upon our characters. Sometimes we put aside our health, goals, to-do's, in order to please the masses. How can we expect the best from others, if we do not take time to better ourselves?

(credit)

Action: Commit to this challenge by writing your affirmation on your mirror, post card, sticky note, planner, poster board. Somewhere you will see it everyday. Say it everyday and believe what your saying is true.

Make a commitment to embrace your playful spirit. Don't be afraid of challenges. Never stop believing in your dreams.

Until next time,

Embrace Individuality

"Nothing of character is really permanent but virtue and personal worth."

                                                                                                      -Daniel Webster

Stay Classy
Be polite and accept the compliments you receive. Rather than dispute something nice that someone said to you. Be gracious and say thank you. Then compliment the other person genuinely. Enjoy savoring all your sweet flatteries.

Treat Yourself 
A new planner is key to organizing your life. I like this planner because it has a weekly view with plenty of room to write. It is a very basic color, so I write with colorful pens. Choose one that fits your personality and inspires you to use it everyday. This year live your life with a plan and wake up everyday with a purpose.

Design the life you want to live

Four days into the new year.  What do you plan to accomplish? What is your vision for 2012? How do you plan to get there? Here is an idea to keep you on track with your resolutions, goals, and turning your dreams into reality.

Create a Vision Board

(credit)

Start by browsing through old magazines, cut out pictures that relate to your goals. If you want more money, cut out a dollar sign or an individual you feel has accomplished this task. If you want to travel cut out the places you would like to visit and paste them on your vision board. A cork board will do, just have some thumb tags handy.

Now, the pictures serve as a reminder of what you plan to achieve. Make a conscious effort to pursue these ideas everyday. Some of these events can be what you want to accomplish in your lifetime. (Those are okay to put on the board too!)

Always strive to be a better version of yourself.

Until next time,
