January On The Central Coast | |
|
If you want to achieve your dreams, then change your habits
- Brian Buffini
| |
|
This is a GREAT quote for the first month of the year. January is a time to set goals and then make plans to achieve these goals. Lately I have been listening to a lot of podcasts - Jim Rohn, Robert Morgan, Tony Robbins, Les Brown and one of my special mentors, Brian Buffini - in order to help me get a good start to 2025. I've set some exciting goals for the year ahead and I am motivated and ready to get going.
What are your goals for this year? Please drop a note or text to me and tell me about your 2025 goals and plans. My word for 2025 is Believe and I believe that it is going to be a bright and successful year; in fact, that is my wish for you and your family: brightness and success in 2025.
There are a lot of fun things to do around here in the remaining weeks of January, including Restaurant Month, so make sure that you get out and about and perhaps you can try a new restaurant. Doesn't that sound like a fun way to celebrate new beginnings and a fresh start?
Well, until we meet again...
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Cheers and ta,ta for now,
Lorelei
