Get Ready for the New Year NOW

It really makes sense to begin preparing for the 2009 now.  Begin to set aside 10 minutes each day to work on dreams, goal and action plans.  There are several good resources to help in this pursuit.

 

Shut Up, Stop Whining and Get  Life by Larry Winget.  This book is like a slap in the face or thumping your ears on a cold morning.  It is though well worth it.  Larry is a fascinating person and does not soft sell or varnish anything.  Do not read if you are too sensitive.  He will torch you.  However, it is a great book for graduating seniors from high school or college.

 

The Art of The Fresh Start: How to Keep Your New Year's Resolutions for a Lifetime by Glenna Salsbury.  This book is tremendous in its’ potential if you read it and apply it (Isn’t that true for every book?)  It is not as confrontational and has fill in the blanks to keep you on track.

 

Finally, The Success Principles by Jack Canfield.  Jack co-edits the Chicken Soup for the Soul series.  I discovered this book after Katrina smacked Slidell and read some of it daily.  If someone was to look for ONE VOLUME that was a exhaustive resource in the area of personal growth, this is the book.

 

Also, if you want to turn your vehicle into a learning center on wheels, I strongly recommend any CD or MP3 series by Jim Rohn.   Down home and simple, but easily applied.  Go to Jimrohn.com for further information.
