Ready for 2008!
Wow! It’s already the 11th of January -time flies… the older I get the more meaningful that phrase becomes. Being the goal setter and planner that I am, I usually come bounding into the new year with Ultimate Scenarios and lists in hand -bring it on! This year is different… in fact, the reason I haven’t posted until today is because for the first time in many years I really wasn’t sure what the goals were going to be. I couldn’t wrap my brain around what it was I wanted to have accomplished by the end of this year, so I decided to just let it go and see what happened.
The phrase that kept (and keeps) popping into my head is “slow and easy”. I realize that I need to take 2008 on in a deliberate way but also in a slow and easy way - more time thinking and planning, more time relaxing with family and friends, more time just being in the moment. Don’t get me wrong -I’ve got a lot to do, but I’m just not going to go at it full steam ahead like I usually do. So here’s some of what’s on my list:
- Finish my book
- Get this blog really going -I have so many ideas for it!
- Get a consistent meditation practice going -learn to just sit still!!!!
- Refinish the trunk (yep, on the list again this year!)
- Mastermind with others
- Go on a cruise with my son (my husband hates cruises)
- Go on a romantic vacation with my husband -just us!
- Take my coaching practice to the next level (that’s always on the list)
Let me wrap this up by saying that I know, and I mean I really, really know, that this is going to be a great year for me and a lot of other people. In fact, I believe that whoever lays down the groundwork for their own personal success this year, whatever that is, will reap the rewards one hundred fold -this is a year of prosperity. Watch and see!
If you need help wrapping your brain around your Ultimate Scenario for 2008 -you can’t quite figure out what you can commit to, contact me at coaching@leevangiezen.com - I’ll be happy to coach you through it!
To your health, wellness and personal success!
Happy New Year!

Hi Lee,
I have had you blogrolled, and am now really starting in earnest. I love this entry. I love your enthusiasm, and your confidence. Just wanted to comment. I thought this quote is interesting.
“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.” Henry Ford Pertinent for me. Gotta keep focused.
Keep up the fantastic work.
