As I write this post I am happy to spend it with my family and feel personal abundance in my life. As I ponder 2010 and beyond (which I tend to do more in December) I evaluate and re-evaluate what is important to me, what changes I must make and even what drastic changes are in order to strive for a life filled with love, joy, happiness, laughter, fun, excitement as well as financial abundance to do that things I want to do when I want to do them.

Therefore, I feel I/we need to consider two things and that is personal joy and professional success.

As for personal joy it is different for everyone and may include your spiritual walk, relationship with a spouse, (boyfriend, girlfriend, significant other…), children, other family members, friends as well as health and more.

This may mean that you must plug into things that you have sort of drifted away from in the last year or so. It may may you need to have more effort in the personal areas of your life that have not commanded as much attention this year and it may be time to really focus on these areas. So…decide what these areas are that lack enough joy or satisfaction and literally DECIDE to do something about it without major, major plans or complicated actions steps. As they say…Just Do It!

As for professional success; this can become tricky as success is defined differently by each person. It could be a part time income of $1,000 per month, it may be a career change with no more financial success but more satisfaction in what you do or how you contribute professionally and still yet others want to make a power move and dramatically make changes to earn a six or seven figure income annually or….?

My point in all this is we are all guilty and at one point in our life or another of putting things off, of over-thinking things too much, of quitting too early, of never starting, of information overload and of simply not taking enough or the correct action to get you closer to that dream life you desire.

Start, by asking yourself: “What do I want; what do I really want?”

It may be to travel, live in a bigger home, provide more for your children, to make a difference in the lives of others or to drive a nicer car, etc.

All in all, the question above will answer what you want and then determine WHY. Why is that important to you, why would you be willing to make changes, grow personally and more for the things you want?

My challenge to you is to once and for all figure this out. Figure what your big dream is; even if you find the task a little difficult. Maybe you had a great year and you need only make “tweaks” to continue on the correct path; yet for others it may and continues to be a tough road and one of disappointments. Don’t worry and simply decide what you want and then focus all your attention to get it and keep going and keep going.

If you sell real estate, have an online business are a network marketer, you’re an engineer, in any form of sales or whatever…the same formula applies.

I ask you….IF NOT NOW; THEN WHEN?

The answer is not always simple but without focus in this area, without attention this topic then all the action on the world may take you in the wrong direction. Worse yet; no focus, no inspiration, no purpose will mean that you really don’t take much action at all..if any.

My wish is that 2010 is a breakout year for you. My desire for you is that you find inspiration in whatever is important to you!

What dream or desire is in your heart and that you have been putting it off for weeks, months or maybe years?

Will you go another year with the same torment or will you take decisive action even it it means change; it if means getting out of your comfort zone for a while? Inspiration or irritation; pick one and get it done with the action steps to get you closer and closer.

I’ll like to know what changes you will make; make your comments here and if you found some value here Re-tweet this to your friends.
