10 Top New Year Resolutions

The New Year is just about here. This is a time when we reflect on the past year and look forward to the new year.

New Year’s Eve is a night when so many people make resolutions or promises to themselves. Are you one of many that will make a New Year resolution?

If so, Do you believe you will actually keep them?

Setting our expectations too high, can make us fall short sometimes. We get caught up in the moment, announce our resolution before realizing we’ve built up this goal in our mind. Our excitement about making a change or a chance at bettering ourselves is great for the moment, but what about in the long term? Will we still feel as excited as the day we made our resolution?

If you have a New Year’s Resolution in mind, has it made this list of the top 10 resolutions compiled by About.com?

1) Spending more time with family and friends
2) Getting more exercise
3) Trying to lose weight
4) To Quit Smoking
5) Enjoy your life more
6) Quit Drinking
7) Getting a handle on your finances and getting out of debt
8) Learn something new…a career change, start a hobby, learning a new language etc…
9) Being less selfish and help others
10) Finally getting organized

10 Top Internet Business Resolutions

I received this in my email inbox today from joel@worldvillage.com. Thought it was worth sharing...

Here is a list of Top 10 Internet Business Resolutions for 2008:

Feel free to repost these on your blog, forward them to friends,
and repost them on forums. Just be sure to give proper credit.
(He has personalized the list to first person)

1) I will clearly define what I want my Internet business to look
like in one year and set specific attainable goals to make it
happen. (You can't get where you are going without a roadmap, so
chart it out)

2) I will follow those who have succeeded, emulate their successes
and learn from their mistakes. (We all need mentors. Be sure you
are following people who have honestly and ethically found success)

3) I will stay focused and not get distracted by all the "bright
shiny objects" (Just because an ebook, course or software product
is great, doesn't mean it is going to help in your specific
business. Be discerning!)

4) I will use the product I have purchased before buying anything
else. (Do you have unread ebooks? Read 'em! Unused software?
Use it! Unwatched DVDs? Put them in the DVD player!)

5) I will prioritize networking relationships with others in my
industry, as it is people and not websites that make my business
successful.

6) I will make every effort to attend at least one Internet
marketing live event in 2008.

7) I will wisely invest time and money in my business. (If you
aren't willing to make sacrifice, you probably aren't going to
achieve your goals)

8) I will THINK BIG! (The opportunity is seemingly endless. Don't
be satisfied with small successes... go for it!)

9) I will not give up! (Nothing happens without action. Never stop
taking action.)

10) I will pay it forward. (It is more blessed to give than to
receive, and I've found that when you help others it always comes
back to you with good stuff)

I hope you find these useful as you enter 2008!
