~Wellness Within...Made Simple~: Tis the season to set new goals...

Even though I've never really been into new year's resolutions, I really enjoyed seeing the list featured in the article by James Colquhoun; only because I really try my best to keep a balance most of the time, this really spoke to my practical way of living. I like to think of myself of a multi-tasker. I always tell folks there is a method to my madness and I'm not dead yet, So! But honestly, wellness is a way of life for me and I try to be mindful and incorporate these "so called resolutions" or what I like to simply call a way of life or lifestyle changes into my daily routine.

Setting goals and having a plan is literally what keeps me going. I would be a nervous wreck if I didn't use a planner, my calendar in my cell, hard-copy calendar hanging in my bathroom, my vision board also keeps me focused and excited about my future. Self help books feed me ideas and give me new information. Obtaining new information for life is fundamental to our future. I urge you all to read and practice putting what your read into action. -baby steps, baby. ;)

Sharing dreams and goals with close personal friends helps to keep me accountable.
I can see how goal setting could be a little overwhelming, so try to keep in mind the SMART goal method. All goals/plans should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timed. -This way, you increase your chances of success by having such a structured outline. - if you think I'm pulling your leg, then give it shot. Set a new goal using this format and compare results to the outcomes you've had before.

Here are just a few life altering tips that you should implement daily for a more well planned and purposeful life. After all, they say we should all wake up with a purpose, right? Well this screams purpose to me. Don't overwhelm yourself but I do encourage you to take a few bullet points from this list, commit and take action. -it's not necessary to hit every bullet on this list all at once but pick a top 5 and rotate them around frequently and consistently. -Follow up in a couple months and see what new changes have blossomed for you in life. Organization and planning is one of the keys to a good life and healthy living. -some folks may question to what degree you or I are organized, LET THEM QUESTION! Your goals should be nothing less than personal, practical and designed to meet your needs and to fit your lifestyle! Lets just commit to being a work in progress and that's what it's all about. -making solid progress!

I've added a few photos to show how I use some tips from the list below to keep my life structed and help me to achieve my purpose. Enjoy! :)
