What do you crave for your life in 2012?
What do you crave for your business in 2012?
What do you crave for your community for 2012?
The question is: What are you READY for?
Each year we sit down and think about what we want or what we wish for. I think if we were really honest with ourselves and took an honest and realistic look at what are ready for, we’d see a gap between the two.
I’m going to go out here on a limb here and say New Year’s resolutions are a crap-shoot. They are an absolute cop-out unless you are actually ready to take accountable action on them.
I believe the difference between people who get what they want in their lives – who create it – and those who don’t is dependent on how much they CRAVE the change.
Let’s take the typical New Year’s resolution for example, “I want to get into shape in 2012.“
You do? Oh, REEEEalllly. How badly do you honestly want to get into shape? Do you absolutely CRAVE it?
And when I say CRAVE it – here’s what I mean:
Crave [kreyv], verb: To want greatly, desire eagerly, to long for earnestly to the point of begging or pleading.
So I’ll go back to the typical New Year’s resolution, “I want to get in shape into 2012.”
- Can you feel it? Can you feel yourself in the best shape of your life? How does it feel?
- Can you taste it? Can you taste the foods you will be eating, the clean water you’ll be drinking and all of the other components that will be fueling this very best you? How does it taste?
- Can you see it? Can you see yourself in the best shape of your life? What are you doing? wearing? enjoying?
- Can you imagine it? Simple question: Can you imagine it? IF you can imagine it as a possibility – then it is one.
- Can you experience it? Can you really, truly and fully experience it in every sense of the word.
If you can go through all of these steps… then you are CRAVING the change you want and you are ready to CREATE it.
- Can you be bring it into your reality? Do you have the confidence in yourself, the tools and support you need, and the discipline to follow through with action to create what you crave?
It’s interesting to me that we ‘wish‘ each other a Happy New Year and all the best in 2012. I’m done with wishing.
For 2012, I hope you have the courage, strength and trust to create what you crave without inducing any limitations, boundaries or restrictions.
All the best. All your best! All my best!
