The New Year is at hand
and it is time to make that New Year's resolution again.
This year do something special, make a resolution to improve
on the four areas in your life that you have control over
and make it the fullest and most prosperous year ever.
Family: Spending time alone is as important as time spent
with your spouse and children, take this time to reflect on
the things you want to accomplish in life and ask yourself
am I getting where I want to go, doing the things I want to
accomplish, and more important, am I who I want to be? Time
spent with your spouse or significant other should include
focusing on your dreams and accomplishments that you had
when you met, are you doing that or just settling for
whatever life throws at you. Time spent with your children
should be quality time, they are learning from you right
now, you are setting the pace for their future and how they
will remember you long from now and this time is precious
and gone too quickly. Spend it wisely, take control now of
your time and dedicate your life to you, your spouse and
children; don't let this year go by without building
memories with your family and enjoying the time shared with
them.
Health: Spiritual, physical, and mental health are part of
life's journey, they have a great effect on the outcome of
anything you do, make sure that your spiritual health shows
your beliefs, actions, and dedication to what you believe
and stand firm with your position. Make sure this has
substance, "don't drink the kool-aid if your not 100% sure
of the content". Strive to improve your mental growth by
setting and achieving your goals. Continue to learn through
reading, taking classes, attending workshops and also
increasing your personal library of books, tapes, and media
that will help you grow and expand your horizons. Pay
attention to diet, exercise, and appearance. A well
maintained machine will operate much more effectively than a
neglected one.
Finance: Daily, weekly, and monthly budgeting is sometimes a
struggle for anyone "even the wealthy", plan your household
budgeting and don't wait till the last moment to pay a bill
with a late fee, they add up, plan these out so you are
prepared for them. Learn to invest wisely. Talk to an
investment counselor, focus on short term, long term and
retirement options, any banker can give advice in this area.
Take advantage of the multitude of books at any bookstore or
library on these subjects. Philanthropy-give back with
money, talent and time to civic organizations, community,
neighborhood or a list of any organization that doesn't just
need money but time or talent that you possess and give
freely!
Occupation: Be very proud of the service you provide. Please
understand how many jobs are related to what you do, when
you sell a car, thousands of jobs have been secured; you are
the strongest link in this economic chain. Other people can
supply the raw materials, steel, rubber, glass, plastics,
finance, transportation services, but they can't sell them.
It takes a professional like yourself and the skill of a car
salesperson to keep the economy rolling. Take advantage of
any growth potential you may be open to and maximize the
unlimited earning potential that today's car sales
professional have. Commit to your profession and stop
telling yourself your not sure if you can do this, give 100%
this year and watch what exponential growth you will have,
strive to be a team player and understand the company you
work for has to be profitable in order for you to have job
security. Think company, team, and then myself.
Have competence in your profession, your product and the
process in which you provide your service. Be a professional
and make this year the year that you gave 100% to your
family, health, finances, and your occupation, live long and
prosper, have a Happy, safe and prosperous New Year!
