90 days left in 2012
Were you able to achieve all your goals for 2012. Stress comes not from doing too much but leaving things incomplete.
Last 3 months of 2012.
I hope the first nine months of 2012 has been great for you. As for myself this year has been quite enjoyable. In hindsight what were some of the things that made you feel a sense of accomplishment or success in 2012?

Did you graduate from college this year?
Did you retire 2012?
Are you looking forward to retirement for 2013?
Were you able to finish paying off your car?
The new diet that you started in January 2012 , did it work for you ?
Did you make the last mortgage payment on the house this year?

Did you register and go back to school in 2012.
With all the positives and negatives that have happened this year do you feel a sense of accomplishment? Whatever your disposition is or isn't I pray that it gets better. If you did not get to achieve some of your goals in 2012 don't be discouraged. We are ALL in need in some kind improvement or Personal Growth and Development. The most successful Athletes, Actors, Personal Development Coaches, Life Coaches as well as Motivational Speakers need Coaching and Motivating themselves. On a recent webinar I heard one the greatest Motivational Speakers in the world, Mr Les Brown, say: "You're Never Too Old to Learn and You're Never Too Young to Teach. A quote from Albert Einstein says that "Education Should Start at Birth and End at Death.
If you want to loose weight , you can. If you want to you go back to school and get a degree, you can. If you want to start your own business, you can. If you want to stop smoking , you can. You and I can do anything we want if we put our minds to it. The problem some us may have is that we may not know what we want. We may even know what we want but may not know how to get it. We have the ability to create the life and be the person we want to be. It really is up to us. Over the last ten years the internet and technology has really made it simple and affordable to learn about almost anything. The only caveat with this entire process is this. Most people, but not all, use the internet for entertainment purposes only. We like to see funny You Tube videos or get downloads of the latest songs.Having fun on the internet is cool. You know what's more cool than You Tube videos and free downloads is the fact that the internet can be a gold mind of opportunity. It's just a matter of choosing the right opportunity.
I am proud to say that I am part of the Baby Boom Generation(1946-1964). At this point in my life quality is more important than quantity. I have more days behind me than I do ahead of me. This realization has changed my point of view from thinking I have all the time in the world to thinking how very valuable time really is. I do my best to enjoy each day as if it were my last, because, one day it will be. At my young age of 54 my line of thinking is this. Happiness is my choice and it is my responsibility. If I want better for myself I must want better for others. Think of it another way. If at the end of each day you had to hold a memorial service for myself what would you have to say about yourself and what do you think others would have to say about you? I ask this question not to sadden the moment but to enlighten your spirit. Perhaps you may see some things about your self you would like to change. Maybe you're happy with your life just the way it is. If you're happy then congrats to you. If you aren't happy with the way your life is right now, it's never too late to make some changes. Start Today you don't have forever!!
When I turned 50 years old four years ago I started to realize that I am on my second half of life. My 50's , 60's, 70's or perhaps my 80's I will have very different concerns. I will have concerns like Life Insurance, A will, Health concerns, Retirement home and other concerns as well. Will I out live my money? Will there be Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security? Will the retirement age remain the same or will it continue to rise like the cost of living? If I don't have enough money will I be able to live with my kids or other relatives. Kids in their 20's , 30's and even 40's may have to move back home and live with Mommy and Daddy,due to our ever changing job market.
If the before mentioned is in your original plan you may want to consider getting a back up plan or two!
The last 90 days of 2012 is fast approaching. Did you do all the things you had promised yourself at the beginning of the year for 2012. If you put a list together with all your goals and accomplishments , what kind of grade would you give yourself- A,B,C. D or F? If you feel you got all of your goals accomplished this year and are on target to complete 2012 with flying colors, congrats you ROCK. If you feel ,within the next 90 days (the rest 2012) you're not where you want to be with all your goals and accomplishments you may want to consider some training and support. This support is not to take away from your goals and ambitions but to support YOU in accomplishing what you started this year in 2012.
The best of Luck the Rest of the way!!!
If Nothing changes , Nothing changes.Start with the one person you see every day. Start with the person that makes it all happen for you. Start with that handsome or gorgeous face you see in the mirror each day.
Stop asking and start taking!!!
