Hey folks, it’s that time of the year. What are your business New Year’s resolutions?
Here are a few of mine:
1. Become an astute observer.
2. Judge less and listen more.
3. Instead of grasping onto everything, let go and be patient.
4. Always remember that good fortune hides within misfortune.
5. Rather than seeking more, practice gratitude.
6. Spend at least 4 hours a day working on new designs and writing.
7. Practice listening more to what clients are not saying.
8. Trust my guardian angel.
9. Get past those fears that stop me from trying what I should.
10. Give more.
Resolutions can be a kind of meditation. They work better with constant practice. If any resolution does not work in January, we can easily start again anytime.
What are your New Year’s business resolutions and how gentle are you with yourself about putting them in place?

George Bernard Shaw once said: “You see things and say, ‘Why?’ But I dream things that never were and say, ‘Why not?’” That quote embodies how Preston Bailey approaches every event.

Some of my resolutions include being around more people and having more clients who lift me up, rather than drain; developing good habits and becoming a slave to them (thank you Og Mandino from The Greatest Secret in the World; and having a blog/website as inspirational and fresh as yours! I am amazed at how you keep the information coming and its so helpful. Thank you!!

Have you ever had a problem, and then you open a book and find the answer. That’s how I feel today “always remember that good fortune hides within misfortune.”
