Yep, it is the time of the year that we get our old goals out, blow the dust off them, and try to freshen them for the new year. And it is an important thing to do. We have to have a roadmap of where we are going, and we need to know when we get there. Or we just keep aimlessly moving along in the fast (or slow) lane.
But how about going one step further? Write that goal down. Now close your office door, put your feet up on your desk, and DAYDREAM!! Take a few minutes to create the picture in your mind of what it will look like, who is there, what is being said. Use all your senses in your daydream, and visual it. Hold that daydream in your mind for several minutes. AAAAhhhh, now go on with your day.
Do this every day... take the time to visualize and take a mental break from your day. You will feel refreshed, happier, and you just may get what you dreamed of.
Because what the mind can perceive, the body can acheive.
Now, go get your daydreaming done : )
