It's a fantastic read about what makes someone successful - and it's not what you think! There's also a section that is very interesting as a parent, and he uses successful people like Bill Gates as an example. I think it is a parenting and business book in one - so you just get to read one book and save time, ha ha! I've also focused myself in time chunks and have already noticed a big difference in what I am achieving. Thanks for stopping by! Heather, have you read Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell?

For myself some of my goals include: -Reading one parenting and one business book each month. -Working in time chunks while my kids are in school or sleeping. -Bringing more focus to my business and making things more systematic.

And I love the Joel Barker quote. So important to get out of the everyday firehose of to-dos and commitments and step back and do this higher-level thinking. Thanks for sharing such great ideas— time to grab my notepad and start asking myself some big questions! Oooh… such juicy questions!

Your goals are very well-defined with numbers and amounts that are trackable. I think many times people set goals, but they forget to set the numbers and amounts that go along with those goals. It's important to have set numbers to track and measure your progress and to know when a goal has actually been achieved. It's also important to celebrate progress along the way. Celebrating achievements helps to build our self-esteem and increases our momentum to keep going and working towards the next goal and the next goal. Thank you for such a great post. I look forward to reading more of them in the future. Kim Elena,

I bookmarked it to make sure I don't lose it. Definitely a post that I want to reread in the future. This year I am going for a more peaceful, less stressful life. I need to spend more time and energy focused on my family and my own health. Fantastic post Elena! I bookmarked it to make sure I don’t lose it.

Terrific blog post. A lot of people start out the new year with resolutions that are bound to fail and then they are disappointed. They would do well to read your blog. I personally have chosen a theme: To put the 10 in 2010. That is a call to action for me to seek excellence in all that I do, rather than focussing on a couple of areas (resolutions). I will check in on myself regularly to make sure I am not being drug down by the negativity of others and forge ahead by focusing on positive, inspiring and like-minded people. If my year is a nine at the end, that will be fine. Hi Elena!

My theme for this year is STEPPING OUT and BE INTENTIONAL. In the past it has been themes like SELF CARE or LEARNING or COMMUNITY. I often use it as a filter in making decisions on a day to day basis. As for money, yes that is a great topic and is often one of our biggest driving forces, and cause of so much heart ache.
