Happy New You 2016 

20 steps of becoming a happier new you in 2016 

1. Stay positive. 

You can listen to the cynics and doubters and believe that success is impossible or you can know that with faith and an optimistic attitude all things are possible.

2. When you wake up in the morning with a purpose.

3. Take a morning walk of gratitude.  It will create a healthy mind ready for success.

4. Instead of being disappointed about where you are not…think positive about where you are going.

5. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out credit card.

6. Remember that advertsy  is not a dead-end but a detour to a better outcome.

7. Focus on learning, loving and growing.

8. Believe that everything happens for a reason. Expect good things to come out of challenging experiences.

9. Don’t waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

10. Mentor someone, and get mentored by someone.

11. Live with the 3 E’s. Energy, Enthusiasm, Empathy.

12. Remember, there’s no substitute for hard work.

13. Zoom focus. Each day when you wake up in the morning ask: “What are the three most important things I need to do today that will help me create the success I desire?” Then tune out all the distractions and focus on these actions.

14. Implement the NO COMPLAINING RULE. Complaining is like vomiting. Afterwards you feel better but everyone around you feels sick.

15. Read more books than you did in 2015. There are plent of good one out there.

16. Get more sleep. You can’t replace sleep with an extra expresso. 

17. Focus on “Get to” vs “Have to.”

Each day focus on what you get to do, not what you have to do. Life is a gift not an obligation. So treasure your life.

18. Each night before you go to bed Reflect on what you have accomplished and what you are thankful for. Even the smallest accomplishment is a small step that leads to bigger things.

19. Smile and laugh more. They are natural anti-depressants.

20. Enjoy the ride. 

You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy it.
