TOP TEN* T'S for a NEW MILLENIIUM!
 

1) TAKE TIME:
Take time to decide what you really want in the year 2000. How can this new year be the best it can be? What can you do differently that will bring you more happiness? What is your ideal life? What can you do to create the life you want in the year 2000? Take time for yourself - Take more vacations this year; take more vacation days and spend them doing what you love.

2) TREAT Yourself:
Make a list of the things you love to do - and do them often! Go to a spa; have a massage; learn a new skill; listen to music; dance; read more books, see more movies, experience more cultural events..Incorporate three new "delicious daily habits" into your life.

3) TELL someone every day what you appreciate about them...
According to Ken Blanchard, who wrote <The One Minute Manager>, people need compliments:criticisms in a ratio of 4:1. How is your ratio? Learn to use Positive I-Messages: "When you (describe the behavior) I feel (the positive feeling you get)" (eg. "when you take the time to cook a nice meal, I really appreciate it.")

4) TRY New Things:
When was the last time you tried something new? Learned a new skill? Did something playful or outrageous? Do it Now!

5) TOLERATIONS:
Reduce and Eliminate them! Tolerations are things that drain our energy...little and big things..from a missing button to a destructive relationship. Make a list of your tolerations and start eliminating them so that you will create a space for the things you love to do. (contact me for a copy of an article on Tolerations)

6) THINK about your goals, clarify your vision of a perfect life. Before
       you take action you need to give a lot of thought to what you want.

8) TAH DAH! Stop TO-DOING and start TAH-DAHing!
Identify and take credit for your successes; then celebrate them! Brag about yourself...Be Selfish (in a positive way). Laugh a lot! Fill up your Cup of Life so that you have more to give to others as well as to yourself.
