Welcome to 2014

If you didn’t accomplish all you wanted to last year, you now have a chance to try again. Plan out your year now, before it really even gets started. Make it a priority to finish and/or accomplish the items that did not happen last year. But before you do that, take some time to determine what prevented you from making it happen in 2013. If you go about it the same way again, chances are you’ll still be unsuccessful.

Albert Einstein once said “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” So if you did not complete a task last year and you do not go about it in a different way this year, it may not happen again. Determine the underlying cause of your failure to complete it in 2013 and make adjustments to compensate for that problem. If you come up to an obstacle you can let it stop you, or you can find a way around it, go under it, or go over it. The decision is yours and it all comes down to how badly you want to accomplish that goal.
