MESSAGE #1623

There’s nothing you can do that can’t be done.
Nothing you can sing that can’t be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game

MESSAGE #1622 HOW TO KEEP YOUR RESOLUTIONS

Do you have goals (resolutions) for the new year? If you are like most people, you do.

But don’t be like most people because most people break their resolutions by January 31st. Here’s how you can keep your resolutions and make 2012 your best year yet!

1. MAKE YOUR GOALS PUBLIC. Tell everyone you know. Post it on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. It’s harder to give up when the whole world knows what your goals are.

2. MAKE A DEAL WITH SOMEONE. Most goals are attainable, if they are important enough. Write a check for $1,000 to a close friend or family member and tell them that if you don’t keep your resolution for at least 4 months, they can cash the check and go shopping. If you stick with your resolution, they give the check back to you (by then it will be a habit). If it’s important enough, you’ll stick with it.

3. DON’T TRY YOUR BEST. Most people “try” their best, but the truth is, there’s no such thing as your best. Instead, DO WHATEVER IT TAKES. Would you ever tell a baby to stop trying to walk? Of course not. Hang on until you catch on.

MESSAGE #1621 A NEW YEAR, A NEW YOU

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly’s
Erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading
night?

You better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Do you run through each day
On the fly?

When you ask: How are you?
Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done,
do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Ever told your child,
We’ll do it tomorrow?

And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die

Cause you never had time
To call and say, “Hi”?

You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won’t last.

When you run so fast to get
somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting
there.

When you worry and hurry
through your day,
It is like an unopened gift thrown
away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower.

Hear the music
Before the song is over.

Slow Dance
By David L. Weatherford
