A Winner´s Attitude for this New Year

If you want this New Year to be your best year, define your achievable New Year goals. Not desires, GOALS.

By Rubén Alfonzo

January 31st. 2015

A new year has arrived and our expectations for all those pending goals and dreams come to fill, once again, their special places in our hearts and minds.

First thing we should ask ourselves is why we haven´t dedicated enough time and efforts to go for them heartedly; with the whole strength of our will. Why?

Let´s reflect and ask ourselves, Why not? Let´s give them a new and reinforced good try. Our best try.

Some people reprimand themselves for not being successful and having the life they say to deserve. My question is what your achievable goals are. Have you clearly defined your goals? What do you want to become, let´s say, in ten years from now?

The warning is that the absence of goals is like living at random. Wait and see what comes next, what will happen… Don´t be an errand in your own life. Take control of your life. Own it.

The only way to be successful and build strong foundations for your own long term personal vision is by establishing your short and midterm goals. They should be the coherent milestone steps to create your future life.

Let´s focus on the short term goals, those that you want, desire and believe that you will achieve in this New Year. What do you want to achieve, reach and become? Define them. Write them down. Not a list of many, many goals. If you did, reduce it to 5 great goals. The other goals surely derive from those 5. Your best 5!!! Place them in all those places at home and in your office where you can face and confront them frequently, including your wallet or purse. Stay focused.

Also, write down how you want your life to be in 10 years from now. Write a maximum 300 words detailed description of your future dreamed of better life. We don´t know If we will be alive by then. That fact cannot stop us from desiring who to become, what to have, where to live and with whom to spare and enjoy our lives.

When working on your goals, your attitude should be that of a winner, a warrior, a highly successful individual. Stay focused, positive and resilient. Above all, believe and be faithful. Strengthen your spirit and will.

My friends, time is precious and not renewable.
