Success in 2012

His
Word, Pray, Serve
, Give, Listen to
God’s Whispers…

3. 2. Make Family a Top
Priority
 Thisshould be a “No Brainer”;
unfortunately, it’s often
neglected. Involve your
family, make time for your
family, have a family night…Be
the Family! Gather together
and set individual and family
goals for 2012.

4. 3. Set SMART Goals

le, Attainable, Rele
vant, and Time-
Based

5. 4. Simplify
Stop making
things so difficult;
do what’s
right, and do
what’s necessary.

6. 5. Don’t Talk About It…
Be About It. If
you say that
you’re going to
do something, do
it!

7. 6. Get Accountability
 Share your
goals, visions, and desires
with someone and ask
them to hold you
accountable. Don’t just
ask them for
accountability; let them
truly hold you

8. 7. Assessment
Re-evaluate and assess
the status of the various
aspects of your
life. Evaluate monthly
and make necessary
adjustments at least
quarterly.

9. 8. Try Something New
Get out of your comfort
zone and try
something, do
something, and fail at
something. Life is
change, and failure is
inevitable.

10. 9. Just Say No
Not only should you say
“No” to drugs, but there
are also plenty of things
that you have said “Yes”
to in the past that you
need to say “No” to in the
future.

11. 10. Dream BIG.
 Think BIGGER. My blog
and overall life tagline is
“dream BIG. think
BIGGER.” Thinking is the
next step after dreaming
and is the action of
making your dreams
reality.

12. 11. No Excuses
“NoExcuses!” was
my motto for 2011;
maybe you should
make it yours for
2012.

13. 12. Help Others Win
 Ifyou want to guarantee a
successful 2012, it should be
a year that’s not focused on
self but rather focused on
others. If you help others
win, it’s a win-win situation.
