New Years Resolutions Are Over – NOW WHAT?

Jan. 22, 2013 - PRLog -- Is that it? It’s a new year – but is it really a new you?
You made your New Years’ Resolutions and now your life is EVERYTHING you wanted it to be. Really?

If only it was that easy. Let’s move BEYOND our need to “make resolutions” in our life that will make us happy. Instead, we need to find our happiness in THIS moment (obviously). But HOW? We know that our happiness is a direct result of the choices we make in any given moment. OBVIOUSLY I can hear you say...but wait, I’m still not happy? Remember, we only control WHO we choose to be and the ACTIONS we take – there is nothing else we can control.

Our happiness is a direct result of who we choose to be, how we define ourselves – which is the root of defining happiness. This past week I gave a seminar on moving BEYOND our New Years Resolutions - you can view a recorded version of the seminar/workshop here (http://www.learnitlive.com/class/3131/New-Years-Resolutions-are-Over-NOW-WHAT) - it's about 35 minutes.

It doesn't matter whether your resolutions are tangible & measurable (weight-related, money-related, health-related), or intangible (self-improvement, relationship, well-being), we have the opportunity right now to make the decisions that are going to impact our lives in positive and meaningful ways. Remember, we are all here for a unique purpose, and it is our responsibility to discover what that purpose is, and to live it in every waking moment.

This physical existence by its very nature involves pain as we are challenged with illness, conflict, and eventually death – but these challenges NEED NOT DEFINE US. Through challenge and pain we have the opportunity to learn and to grow, to step into the fullness of ourselves, and to obtain true happiness and fulfillment.

We all know that it takes more than one time per year to make the resolutions that will bring us happiness. If you fell off the wagon, just recommit - and recommit again. Take it one moment at a time, one day at a time, one month or one year at a time. You can pace yourself for success - but never give up.

Happiness is attainable, and available...right now. Just pay attention and show up - and everything will fall into place.

Until next time - many blessings!
