10 Questions For The New Year... And Then Some (Shaping My Life Through The Beauty Of Self Discovery)

1. Where do I need to give myself some slack or extendnforgiveness to my own VIP -- as in me?

I start with this question for the purpose of beginning anrealistic review designed to provide hope as opposed to anynremote sense of crushing defeat.

2. What did I do well this past year?

State at least your top three.
Should you list more?

3. In view of the items identified in response to thenprevious question, ask yourself: how should I (or could I)ncontinue to excel in the areas I named?

Quick: name at least three ideas!

4. Is there anything I need to stop doing?

This could be...

A self destructive habit that hurts myself or others,

Something that is taking/wasting way too much time,

A negative way of thinking,

Or an unrealistic goal that needs to be laid to rest.

5. What is my greatest asset in my role as a ________ (younselect the role), and how can I capitalize on it in thencoming year?

I suggest that your "how" should be believable in your eyes.

In other words, I suggest any planned steps of action beingnfar enough "ahead" of you to challenge and inspirenproductive thinking and acting -- but not too far.

In my way of thinking a great response might be:

"That would sure push me, but I can see it happening."

6. What enjoyable/refreshing break could be (or should be)nset aside in my calendar right now?

I mean by this making what *needs* to happen... happen.

For instance, my wife and I just took a look at ourncalendars, made the commitment to take time off no matte
what, called the resource, and committed ourselves tonexpending the funds.

Why? Because we *had* to.

7. Is there a discipline in my life that needs to benimproved upon or seriously revisited this year?

Physical?
Spiritual?
Emotional?

8. When I think about making a difference or being anpositive influence in my world, how could I do that?

Obviously, phrases such as "giving back" or "making ancontribution" come to mind when reflecting on this question.

Remember: simple can be significant.

9. What are my "grateful ten?"

As you reflect on the previous year, *what* and *who* arenyou most grateful for?

Name your top ten.

10. Who needs to hear from me?

This could be for your benefit or theirs.

Could/should someone be brought into your world because theynwould inspire, motivate or train you?

On the other hand...

Should you join someone else's life journey to inspire,nmotivate or train them?nn=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=n© Lee Wise All rights reserved. You may freely distributenthis writing. The copyright and this resource box must benincluded.
