Happy 2010! What will you do?



Happy 2010! 2010 is here and what will you do that is important this year? With only 365 day in a year the count down in on. Throw away the idea of a new year's resolution and start this year off right with setting yourself goals you will accomplish and start living your resolutions.

Questions to ask yourself: Where do I want to go this year? What do I want to achieve? How will I get there?

According to the book, What they don't teach you at Harvard Business School, Those that set goals are likely to achieve more and make more money.

Don't limit yourself to what you can do in a year. Start with breaking down your large goals into smaller, daily attainable goals. A large goal might be to get an internship this year. A smaller daily goal (step 1) would be to daily read the newspaper, Women's Wear Daily, Malayke.com or your favorite blog to stay current with what companies are doing and find out about new companies that might need your help. Next (step 2), You could create a list of all the companies you would like to intern with and add new companies to the list as you come across them. (Step3) You could contact the companies you are interested in working for. By next year at this time you will have yourself one years worth of industry experience.

"Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment." Oprah Winfrey

One of my personal goals for 2010: On a daily basis I will stop and smell the.......roses, flowers, ect. I will try to be in the moment at least once a day.

........ I hope this inspires you!
