2015! What a treat to be setting my goals for the year from our Mexican beach house while enjoying a month with my sweetheart. Thinking forward always starts with reflecting & every year at New Years & Sept long weekend I spend a few hours writing down my goals; both short term & long term. It amazes me to see all my goals for 2014 accomplished. It was an amazing thing to experience, but it may surprise you that none of my goals included focusing on business or finances; yet I experienced one of my most successful years in both those areas too! My goals are surrounded by balance, yet often when were out of balance we have to go even more out to get back in. For years & years (& years) my life goals involved being in business & making money as a high priority. Mom says I always wanted what the rich people had; Ha! I dont know?, maybe. I spent my 20s getting educated, finding my sweetheart & starting a family. From very humble beginnings, through education & drive, Lynn & I became millionaires by the age of 30! Not long after & a decade of business experience behind us, we were a few million$ in the hole assuming a clients debt & we were forced to sell everything & then spent the next decade paying off the balance of that debt! I am truly thankful for the contrast from those challenges for they shaped me into who I am today. Another decade later & we arrived back on top again (30 yr cycle), because broke & poor are two different things all together. I remember joking several times during the financial mess that broke would be great as it means youre even at zero & we were literally millions in the hole. We were never broke though, as I also believe its a mentality; instead we focused on maintaining a balanced life. Balance promotes harmony & harmony is the only thing that will bring pure joy & happiness. My goals have always included the 5 main spokes in the wheel of harmony: 1. Health & wellness 2. Relationships / Family 3. Spiritual growth 4. Mental growth 5. Business & finances These spokes are the basics & have served me well. Living a balanced life also serves my family, friends & clients as it shapes who I am & assists me in accomplishing whatever I set my mind to. Ive added many additional spokes, but these are the basics that keep the wheel round & turning. In 2015 my goals are to continue seeking harmony & being happy. This will be accomplished by being humble, looking within & staying on track with my goals. Its going to be a great year & were off to a great start! Olá my friends! I wish you all the Best. Namasté.
