 The Miracle Of Friendship

There is a miracle called Friendship
that dwells within the heart
and you don't know how it happens
or when it even starts.

But the happiness it brings you
always gives a special lift
and you realize that Friendship
is God's most precious gift.

- Jean Kyler McManus

Topic: RE: Reflect first, then plan.
Great post!

2010 was SO awesome.

As I reflect...

I got back into doing something things that were important to me personally. I began to volunteer a lot more. I was always too busy with work, kids, etc. but I finally got back into all again and I AM SO HAPPY FOR IT.

I also took this step for myself. This is something I had been thinking about since 2008.

I am looking forward to 2011 and then what it has in store.

Happy New Year ALL!

P.S. I am going to work to do a better job journaling.

Topic: A BLUE PRINT FOR GOAL SETTING

As we approach the New Year we all tend to make new goals , set resolutions and make plans to do new things. I have attached a link to an article from Sparks that I think will help you in planning your goal setting . It is always good to have a plan or a blue print. When setting goals you cannot go into it without a plan. Whenever I set goals or have an obstacle I want to challenge , I write things down that will help me achieve what I want to do . Let’s call it OUR BLUEPRINT FOR GOAL SETTING . I have a date book that I use , and each month I write down things I want to accomplish. Do I always reach each one ? No , but I always have a fall back plan on how to keep pushing to get to my goal . As I have always told you , if you do not try , how will you even know if you can reach your goals . I hope this article will help you to plan out your yearly goals and resolutions. Happy New Year and her is to a HAPPY NEW YOU !   Tink A Vision

Thanks Molly ~  For me, I like looking back at my journals. It is a discipline that really helps me stay on track and then see where I've had successes and where I need to work harder.

Molly , Thank you for sharing this . I try to journal almost everyday. If not here on OH , I blog on my site blog . For me , it helps me to go back and see where I was , what I might have done that day that I need to remember to do today . It is my way of keeping myself in check . It is also a reflection of me as well . I love Katy Jay , She was a speaker once at one of my WLS Conventions I did a couple years ago . She is a true inspiration . If anyone has not ever read her story , she has a great book and her journey touches on some really important subjects when it comes to the surgery and our lifestyle .   Again , thank you for sharing this .   Tink
