The year is flying by, together with many of the New Year's Resolutions we determinedly set for ourselves just a few short weeks ago. So often at the beginning of a new year we set ourselves up to fail if our hearts are not truly in our resolutions and goals. We are left with a sense of failure or guilt when we lapse - and at times, just a little relief!
If you have long since abandoned your “should-do” Resolutions then don’t panic! It is more important to know your “Big 5” - the 5 things that need to happen by the end of the year in order that you can look back at 2010 as your best year so far.
Over and above my “Big 5” is a list of many small things I need to remind myself of in order to keep on track. Sometimes it’s the smallest things that make the biggest difference to our happiness. I thought I would share these with you below.
Here’s to living your inspired life,
