Make Attainable New Year's Resolutions

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BPN84_4s_18/VnL5MJs3ELI/AAAAAAAAEww/TWHr9Wo6y2A/s1600/silhouette-683751_1280.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="achievable new years eve resolutions" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BPN84_4s_18/VnL5MJs3ELI/AAAAAAAAEww/TWHr9Wo6y2A/s1600/silhouette-683751_1280.jpg" title="" /></a></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Keep your resolutions this year, by making them attainable and realistic. It’s fun to imagine the endless possibilities for the coming year, thinking about all the things you can do and all the plans you want to make. However, realistic resolutions are the key to success. Create attainable New Year’s resolutions, reach them, and then create a new goal. It is a cycle that leads to long-term success. </span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Why do attainable resolutions matter?</b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They matter because they’re attainable!</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are setting unrealistic goals for yourself, it is too easy to get discouraged when you don’t see appropriate progress toward your goals. This can diminish your drive for your resolution, even if you are bettering your life while working toward achieving it!</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Build on your resolutions.</b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you set resolutions that are attainable and set goals that you can reach, you will be able to continually build on new goals throughout the new years. This will inspire and motivate continual growth toward your goals. You will find new inspiration and checking off a goal and being able to set a brand new one for the future.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>What are some examples of attainable, buildable resolutions?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Weightloss</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Instead of saying, “In 2016, I am going to lose weight,” say, “By February 28th of 2016, I will have lost 10 pounds.” This resolution is trackable, attainable, and gives you a specific goal to reach! It is possible to lose 10 pounds in two months. With focus, a healthy diet, and regular exercise, you can achieve this resolution and set a new one! “Losing weight” is too ambiguous; without a clear, specific resolution it is hard to stay motivated.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Fitness</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“I’m going to workout more in 2016.” Will you, though? You probably won’t with a resolution like that. Instead, make a resolution to “hit the gym three times each week” or “meet with a personal trainer twice a month to stay accountable for my fitness goals.” These examples of resolutions can be tracked and achieved routinely, so you can be proud that you are continually working and succeeding at your New Year’s resolutions.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Eating Healthy</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A healthy lifestyle seems to be on everyone’s New Year’s Resolution list this year. Attain this resolution by having a plan to live a healthier life. Don’t wake up on January 1st and expect to change your lifestyle. Research how you want to live, how you will implement healthy choices into your life, and how to will succeed with healthy living in 2016. Having a plan for a healthy life is the only way to succeed.</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Need motivation to live your truth

<div><h3>NEED MOTIVATION? </h3></div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-KoYu-fsmBQo/Vm5bJ2ymjQI/AAAAAAAAEv4/3DDKTO001fg/s640/blogger-image--900996081.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-KoYu-fsmBQo/Vm5bJ2ymjQI/AAAAAAAAEv4/3DDKTO001fg/s640/blogger-image--900996081.jpg" alt="Need motivation to live your truth" title="Need motivation to live your truth" /></a></div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>PLEASE READ BELOW....👇🏼</div><div><br />
</div><div>What are you doing... Not literally right now in this very moment, but with your life? </div><div><br />
</div><div>What are your goals? </div><div><br />
</div><div>What are your "whys"? </div><div><br />
</div><div>What have you risked? </div><div><br />
</div><div>What hopeful wishes have turned into denies?</div><div><br />
</div><div>I've always been a dreamer, but I wasn't always a goal crusher. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I was the kind of dreamer who wished for more but never took any action. </div><div><br />
</div><div>{all talk- no walk}</div><div><br />
</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-y1G6kACvads/Vm5bE5nyn6I/AAAAAAAAEvg/K2XIAC5oaII/s640/blogger-image-1874802304.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-y1G6kACvads/Vm5bE5nyn6I/AAAAAAAAEvg/K2XIAC5oaII/s640/blogger-image-1874802304.jpg" title="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" /></a></div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Until one day, I was tired of the purposeless life I felt I lead. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I was sick of "going thru the motions" and felt that this couldn't be what life was really all about... </div><div><br />
</div><div>What about the happy fairytales we were taught at a young age.. was I even really happy? </div><div><br />
</div><div>Is this all adulthood really was? </div><div><br />
</div><div>contentment.. basically just living to survive?!</div><div><br />
</div><div>- and then after the death of my grandpa I had this awakening. 🌟✨🌟</div><div><br />
</div><div>I figured that if this was "my life," why not try for more? </div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-wcq5HZJGYBw/Vm5bGGH0_lI/AAAAAAAAEvo/_jGTJLnevCY/s640/blogger-image-2139407204.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-wcq5HZJGYBw/Vm5bGGH0_lI/AAAAAAAAEvo/_jGTJLnevCY/s640/blogger-image-2139407204.jpg" title="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" /></a></div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Why not listen to that whisper that was placed in my heart. </div><div><br />
</div><div>If I fail, I'll be right back where I am now, but if I don't even try, I'll be here forever... Still working holidays and shift work.</div><div><br />
</div><div> (Not entirely happy with the life I've been living, content and just living to survive) </div><div><br />
</div><div>So I set goals, big scary goals that seem completely out of my reach. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Goals like I am going to own a business helping other women love themselves and find their truth that has a holistic framework, I am going to publish personal development books, and be a motivational speaker that inspires people by my journey to take action in their life and I am going to fulfill my philanthropist spirit by first helping the families in Pittsburgh and then  develop a clothing line that funds schools and clean water for the worlds less fortunate. </div><div><br />
</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j2Il-c7D-_0/Vm5bLtGa3MI/AAAAAAAAEwA/2QW-XgadHNw/s640/blogger-image--2076846640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j2Il-c7D-_0/Vm5bLtGa3MI/AAAAAAAAEwA/2QW-XgadHNw/s640/blogger-image--2076846640.jpg" title="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" /></a></div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div> A funny thing happens when you switch your way of thinking... When you turn your brain into a freight train that lost control of it's brake pads at 110mph and is heading down a one way path.. You not only become a goal setter but you become a goal crusher.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Now not all of these things have happened YET but, these goals are what keep me up at night and BURN a FIRE soooo DEEP within my SOUL that I can't stop thinking about them.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Some would say it is an obsession but, to me it is just a whole lot of PASSION with flame that was only lit by taking action. </div><div><br />
</div><div>Anything you want to achieve starts and ends in your mind.</div><div><br />
</div><div>Take the action, build your wings, and FLY.</div><div><br />
</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pDQ8-59xbfs/Vm5bHrKv7AI/AAAAAAAAEvw/pnewoSTFQyQ/s640/blogger-image-405468216.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pDQ8-59xbfs/Vm5bHrKv7AI/AAAAAAAAEvw/pnewoSTFQyQ/s640/blogger-image-405468216.jpg" title="Alyssa Schomaker - need motivation to live your truth ?" /></a></div><br />
<br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Have the courage to say YES to the seeds planted in your soul and watch your DREAMS GROW and GROW and GROW. 🌱🌱🌱</div>

We all know how easy it is to lose sight of our goals when life becomes so bogged down with responsibilities, stress, obligations, and drama. Do not let go of your personal goals. Knowing that you’re working on your empire can instill an exciting purpose in life. It makes the stress and hard work worth it in the long run! </span></div>

Here are some tips to stay motivated during all of life’s stress and struggles:</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14.666666666666666px; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br />
<ul><span style="font-size: 14.666666666666666px; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<li><span style="font-size: 14.666666666666666px; line-height: 1.38;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To stay motivated, make sure that your goal is clear, specific, and can be evaluated. If your long-term goal is vague, it is challenging to stay motivated. With a clear, specific goal, it will be much easier to track your progress toward your goal, which will help you stay motivated. The more specific, the better. </span></span></li>
</span></ul>
<span style="font-size: 14.666666666666666px; line-height: 1.38; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span> <br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; list-style-type: disc; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

Being able to check your progress along the way is important to finding motivation. Break down your goal into specific pieces. If it is possible for you to put deadlines on certain parts of your goals, do it! Deadlines will be extra motivation.</span></div>

<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; list-style-type: disc; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

All strategies need revision. It is impossible to do something perfectly the first time, especially when you are learning and working as you go. </span></div>

<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 14.666666666666666px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; list-style-type: disc; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

Checking your plan consistently and making changes will ensure that your long-term goals remain a priority among your other responsibilities. </span></div>

When you are working toward your goals, it's intimidating to talk about them with people, but people could be what you need to stay motivated. Talk to people you trust and people who love you. They will help inspire you to continue working toward your goals. They will share your excitement with you!</span></div>

Often times we set a goal because it sounds great and something that we really want to hopefully achieve at some point but sometimes that goal doesn't have the same meaning that it had maybe last month or the month previous and so it's really, really important that you make sure the goals have a meaning to you still. That sounds kind of crazy but it's so true.</span><br />
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"> We think that we want something but do we really truly want it? Is it serving our purpose and our priorities?<o:p></o:p></span></div><div data-l10n-id="" style="font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

I am going to give you an example. One of the goals that most people that I come in contact with want to achieve is how to lose 10 pounds in one month. It's not really a crazy goal. You guys know that average weight loss in order to be healthy is about 2 lbs. a week. So 2 – 2 ½ lbs. a week you got a ten lbs. weight loss goal. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">It's definitely something that's manageable and it's realistic. It's something that you can achieve. So when you set your goals, make sure that your goals are </span><span style="color: #f4cccc; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">realistic</span><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"> and something that you </span><span style="color: #f4cccc; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">achievable.</span><br />
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"> As you can see with the 10 lbs. weight loss it definitely is something that is manageable and easy to achieve in a 30 day timeframe.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div data-l10n-id="" style="font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

</div><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"><span style="color: #262626;">The next thing is </span><span style="color: #f4cccc;"><b><span style="text-transform: uppercase;">you need to put action steps towards your goals</span></b>. </span><span style="color: #262626;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

So you can wish for things to happen within your life. But really your goals are going to be achieved by following a plan and following through with the actions.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div data-l10n-id="" style="font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

You need to have an exercise routine. You need to follow some kind of nutrition plan. You need to have accountability to your goals, motivation (serves the priorities), and a reward.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />
</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">So find some kind of accountability coach or a friend that's going to hold you accountable and motivate you to reach your goals. You are also going to want to have some kind of reward in there as well. So that when you achieve these things on your daily, weekly, monthly basis, then you have some of reward or something that you look forward to. Those are your actions steps. Make sure that you guys set yourself up for success and understand what you have to do in order to achieve those goals. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div data-l10n-id="" style="font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

</div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">Now we know what it is that we want to achieve and we also have the action. </span><br />
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">Then you want to break it down into weekly then daily activities.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">For each action step you need to plan it out on your calendar. </span><br />
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">For example for a goal of exercising 5 days a week plan that out on your calendar for when you are going to accomplish this activity for each week of the 30 days.</span><br />
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;"> Then you're going to look at your nutrition plan and make a meal plan based on the nutrition recommendations and create a meal plan for the week. </span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span></div><div data-l10n-id="" style="font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;">The most important thing when you are setting your goals - <b><span style="text-transform: uppercase;">you figure out what they are</span></b>. And you must have the motivation to do it! <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

So it's like an agreement between the both of you to hold yourself accountable to your goals. And you guys can really do this in any areas of your life. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

I find it super helpful to write down three things that I did really well in the month versus criticizing myself and pointing out all the things that I didn't achieve because truthfully you're not always going to achieve all your goals and that's okay.</span><br />
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"><br />
</span> <span style="color: #262626; font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 11.5pt;"> You need to get used to really celebrating your progress and just being happy that you are moving forward.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div data-l10n-id="" style="font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 15pt; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Yup, that’s right. Never leave anything on table. Understand that there are seasons of push and seasons of pull in your business. When it is time to be bold, to really go after it and achieve what it is that you wanted to achieve! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you don’t achieve that specific goal at that specific time then sit back, re-evaluate and look back at what it was that you did well under circumstances! Then celebrate those achievements and set some new goals for yourself! That’s my FIRST TIP for you #Girlbosses - <span style="color: magenta;"><b><u>Be <span style="background-color: white;">BOLD</span></u></b></span> and <i><span style="color: magenta;"><b>chase your dreams and chase your goals!!</b></span></i><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My SECOND TIP is JUST DO IT. Just be like Nike and just do it. Believe that it can be done! Believe it can be done. BELIEVE in YOURSELF. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you’re thinking about doing something kind of like I have been thinking doing #Periscope (follow me @alyssaschomaker!) with you guys. I have just every excuse in the book as to why not to do it. I just decided to DO IT! There’s just so much I wanted to share with you guys and so that’s my second tip for you guys – <b><span style="color: magenta;"><u>JUST DO IT</u></span></b>. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Have <b><u><span style="color: magenta;">GOALS</span> </u></b>and go out there. DO what you want to ACHIEVE and DON’T hold yourself back! Just do it. Often times I just act before I really think about the big decisions that I am going to make and I have just kind of gone with my gut and kind of LISTEN to that WHISPER and that is what I want you guys to do as well. To just do it! If there’s something you guys have been thinking of doing, just go out there and do it.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My THIRD TIP is to <span style="color: magenta;"><u><b>JUST HAVE FUN</b></u></span>. Have a positive outlook in life. Really try to enjoy those moments. Celebrate every single accomplishment. CELEBRATE what you have going on within your own life. And make life just an adventure and have fun doing it. We only get one life guys! And so I want to <b><i><u><span style="color: magenta;">make sure you are DOING WHAT YOU ENJOY.</span></u></i></b> Whatever it is in your life make sure you are having fun while you are doing it. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LRmheghPIxw/VeXDarYecAI/AAAAAAAAEKA/e5d93XZ2oq0/s1600/fun.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="My top 5 tips for girlbosses" border="0" height="317" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LRmheghPIxw/VeXDarYecAI/AAAAAAAAEKA/e5d93XZ2oq0/s320/fun.JPG" title="My top 5 tips for girlbosses" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Make sure you’re having fun doing it – that is so important and if you’re not enjoying in your life.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
FOURTH TIP is <span style="color: magenta;"><b><u><i>FIND OUT WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY.</i></u></b></span> Find that thing that brings you PASSION and JOY and then create a living around that! It’s so important. Your career must be something that you are super passionate about! You never have to feel like you’re working a day in your life. And when that happens, it’s seriously amazing. I WANT THIS FOR EVERYONE! Because you can tell that I am just a really excited individual and I want everybody to just have fun and enjoy what they’re doing in their life.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6bf7zzIzpww/VeXD8ZsAR2I/AAAAAAAAEKI/7zYbVdobrOk/s1600/Capture.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="318" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6bf7zzIzpww/VeXD8ZsAR2I/AAAAAAAAEKI/7zYbVdobrOk/s320/Capture.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My FIFTH TIP is <span style="color: magenta;"><u><b>VALUE YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS</b></u></span>. When you own a business it is easy to get sucked in into your work and have resentment that you’re not spending that much time with your family or you’re not going enough time for your business. It is important to set business hours. Set hours that you’re just going to be with your family and then set hours that you’re just going to work. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Treat your business like a business with your family, and your faith being the priority that your business is centered around. Not the other way around. It’s so easy just to get caught up in trying to achieve diff goals and let the passion override what it is that we really, really want to accomplish. What you guys want to do with your business must be family and faith centered. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eLeWhYbHnGo/VeXEldMHdwI/AAAAAAAAEKY/PkctdBHXxMs/s1600/Capture2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eLeWhYbHnGo/VeXEldMHdwI/AAAAAAAAEKY/PkctdBHXxMs/s400/Capture2.JPG" width="396" /></a></div>

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Make sure you guys are scheduling your family in there. I know that sounds super weird to think about having to schedule your family but it’s true. I schedule in everything that my kids have to do all the things I want to do with my husband, all my date nights and our weekends if you know in my business I don’t work Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I am there with my family. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It’s really important that you schedule your business hours around what’s going on with your family making sure each one of them have centered time that’s focus so that you’re WORKING SMARTER versus WORKING HARDER!<o:p></o:p></div>

Top 5 Tips To Motivate You to Get Your Workout In

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XrGoO5eVctU/VeT5Hume-fI/AAAAAAAAEIM/mCRpVkVtOQ8/s640/blogger-image-732867438.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-XrGoO5eVctU/VeT5Hume-fI/AAAAAAAAEIM/mCRpVkVtOQ8/s640/blogger-image-732867438.jpg"></div><br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Do you need yourself to go and
workout?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Here are 5 ways that I am doing
right now to get myself motivated, to stay dedicated to the goals that I set
for myself.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-85hRRHuLL14/VeTPphfYrPI/AAAAAAAAEHw/Kb0gyq86MXU/s1600/infographics1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-85hRRHuLL14/VeTPphfYrPI/AAAAAAAAEHw/Kb0gyq86MXU/s640/infographics1.jpg" width="425"></a></div>
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
First thing I
did was--I went and I got some motivational tank on! I got one that says FOCUS ON
THE GOOD STUFF and got some pink shorts! Anything motivating – whether it’s
buying CUTE workout clothes or something that you feel really good in!! make
sure it motivates you to put them on and makes you feel good about you!!</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0lagkSetaUo/VeT5E0ZizOI/AAAAAAAAEH8/IRYBXzL2SKo/s640/blogger-image--1146304299.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0lagkSetaUo/VeT5E0ZizOI/AAAAAAAAEH8/IRYBXzL2SKo/s640/blogger-image--1146304299.jpg"></a></div><br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My second tip
is to FIND A WORKOUT THAT YOU ENJOY DOING! For me I like HIIT workouts and
I really love to weight train! Maybe for you, you like to do yoga or go on bike ride –
whatever it is that you enjoy doing – make sure it should be something to get
you going and designed to reach your goals!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My third tip is
to find a pre-workout energizer that you like! I started drinking one of these
energizers, it’s one of those pre-workout that’s all natural but when  I drink it I get so much energy and it’s
almost full proof that I need to work out afterwards! There are a lot of brands
out there on the market make sure it has clean ingredients. I like energizer by Beachbodies performance line. For some a cup of
coffee is a great pre-workout to use as well.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-S_Q9BGA35YI/VeT5GRmKOAI/AAAAAAAAEIE/3oBODTn4vvM/s640/blogger-image--2022308318.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-S_Q9BGA35YI/VeT5GRmKOAI/AAAAAAAAEIE/3oBODTn4vvM/s640/blogger-image--2022308318.jpg"></a></div><br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My fourth tip
is to VISUALIZE your GOALS. I really think that the key to your success if
visualization. I want you to visualize what you are going to feel like. What
are you going to look like, what are the things that you’re going to enjoy
differently when you reach your goals? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_Q5KBWp56Uw/VeS1LVbF0hI/AAAAAAAAEGE/XEft58S-ILo/s640/blogger-image-765223509.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_Q5KBWp56Uw/VeS1LVbF0hI/AAAAAAAAEGE/XEft58S-ILo/s640/blogger-image-765223509.jpg"></a></div>
<br>
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
By going through this process, to really
understand that it is a journey and that there are things that you really need
to be celebrating all along the journey and not really set up yourself for
failure by setting goals that are not achievable. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So, really think about what
this is going to look like for your future. What kind of goals you want to
achieve and then break those downs into weekly goals that can make it
manageable and you can really celebrate your success and victory along the way.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My last tip for
you is FIGURE OUT what that WHY is. Why do you want to make this kind of
changes in your life? Because that’s going to create self-motivation, and
there’s nothing like a self-motivator. You can have coaches, you can have
people helping you out along your journey and keep you motivated but you really
have to have that internal jive. Have that controlling why in your life that
will keep you centered and pick you back up on days when you fall off.  Not every day is going to be perfect, you are
going to miss days in your training. You are going to eat less nutritious food
and it is really up to you to determine that that does not define who you are
or your end results.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I just wanted more for my family and was so tired of missing out on the events in their life... That I decided to do something about it.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My passion for the health of this country is what burned deep within my soul.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I was scared what others would think.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I still deal with daily rejection and people drinking the haterade.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But, my dreams are bigger then my fears and the what ifs.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I no longer care what people think or those that are not ready to join me.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I know it is not me but, they can't see the opportunity for themselves and I am perfectly okay with that.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyone can do this.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You just have to break up with your fears + self limiting behaviors and decide WHY NOT ME?</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The truth is that this country needs you to be BRAVE.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The obesity epidemic and CANCER rates are at an all time high.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is time to stop thinking of the what ifs and how to and just let your dreams control your destiny.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ask yourself.... Why not me?</span></div>

Your role as a coach is to support and motivate others on their fitness journey and for you to be the example. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In 29 months, My family and I are debt free, home with our kids, and have created a life by design. We don't live our lives for the weekend. We travel 8-9x a year and have created a 5 figure weekly income. Crazy I know but, it is 100% true and all because we are serving other people and helping them improve their health and live a more positive lifestyle. My cup is filled daily and it reminds me such how much reward comes from helping others.</span></div>

Then, to help you get started right you will have access to my New Coach University where I will teach you everything that I have done to be successful in this business.  I will help you from re inventing the wheel.  You will have access to all of my trainings, my documents, my guides, scripts, calls and more!  I do a weekly team call, a smaller new coach call and 1:1 calls as needed.

I honestly built this business from my kitchen table before the kids woke up, during nap time and in the evenings after they went to bed at night!  Its one of those businesses where you can set your own hours, you can determine your own success based on your level of effort and you have the potential to truly change the course of your future!  But you will never know the possibilities unless you take that leap of faith!  There is no better time than right now!</div>

Finding motivation is all about finding what motivates you personally. You might know someone who finds their motivation through competitive sports while you prefer a more laid-back approach. Try experimenting with a few different motivational ideas. Don’t feel discouraged if it takes a few attempts to find the right source of inspiration for you.</span></span></div>

Weight loss goals can be great for some, but they don’t work for everyone. If weight loss or appearance-based goals make you feel intimidated or discouraged, modify them! For example, instead of setting a goal to lose ten pounds, try making your goal about setting a healthy example for your children. You might find that this makes it easier for you to make healthier choices, and the weight loss will naturally follow.</span></span></div>

Try finding motivation in workouts that are fun and exciting. If hitting the gym every day makes you feel bored, mix it up by subbing in some other activities. If there’s a sport you enjoy, start a team with some friends. Or, if you draw your inspiration from nature, try going for a hike or trail run through a local park. When your workout is something that you truly enjoy and look forward to, finding motivation is much easier!</span></span></div>

Partner Workouts for Friends or Couples

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Partner workouts are the perfect way to make your workout into a fun social activity. Having a workout buddy can help you stay motivated because you’re much less likely to skip your workout if someone else is expecting you to be there. </span></span></div>
<b id="docs-internal-guid-0711907c-e8b1-492b-be46-ed9a6968841f" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you want to try some partner workouts, it’s important that both partners commit to the plan. It can be discouraging if one partner isn’t as dedicated as the other. Before you register for a class or join a gym together, make sure you’re both on the same page. </span></span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Set goals for your partner workouts that are important to both of you, and in line with your current fitness levels. If you’re hoping to run a marathon by the end of the summer and your partner just wants to get out and have fun, they may not be a great match for you as a fitness buddy. A little bit of friendly competition can be a great motivator, but don’t get discouraged if your partner does a little better than you in some areas. Stick with it and you’ll get there, too! Make sure you’re having fun together, but don’t get so caught up in conversation that you forget to exercise! </span></span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Time to find a workout buddy and get going! Here are some fun partner workouts you can try together:</span></span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Dance classes.</b> Dancing is a fun activity, but, surprisingly it can be one of the more challenging partner workouts, too! Instead of a traditional dinner and a movie date night, why not sign up for a dance class instead? You’ll both get a full-body workout while you have a blast spending time together.</span></span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Bodyweight exercises.</b> You might be familiar with doing bodyweight exercises (such as push-ups) on your own, but having a partner opens up new possibilities for you. Try doing some partner squats. Facing your partner, hold on to each other’s forearms. Slowly lower your bodies as though you are sitting in a chair, stopping when your thighs are parallel with the floor. Move back into a standing position, and repeat. It’s that easy! If you and your partner enjoy that, try doing a few other kinds of bodyweight partner workouts. </span></span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 14.6666666666667px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Sign up for a 5k.</b> Setting goals is an incredibly important part of successful partner workouts. Signing up for an event gives you a specific goal to work toward together, and you’ll both be more likely to stick to it. Be each other’s cheerleader, and celebrate together after you’ve crossed the finish line. </span></span></div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 14.6666666666667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Partner workouts help you get fit while strengthening your bond with your workout buddy. If you’re looking for new ways to shake up your routine, I suggest trying one of these partner workouts. Are you trying to find a fitness and nutrition plan that works for you? I’m here to help. </span><a href="http://www.afitnurse.com/p/schedule-appointment-to-chat-with-me.html" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="font-size: 14.6666666666667px; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Contact me</span></a><span style="font-size: 14.6666666666667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> today, and I can help you find a healthy routine that will put you on track to reach your fitness goals!</span></span>

Organizational Tips to Start the New Year Right

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pZ0Z4__oMkc/VJMCxMvR5-I/AAAAAAAADRc/hopAsWpRaBA/s1600/organize_life.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Using a planner or notebook are useful organizational tips to start off 2015 with a bang.

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1; margin-bottom: 15pt; margin-top: 8pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #666666;">Whether you’ve decided to make a resolution or not, these organizational tips will provide a great starting point for starting off 2015 with a great outlook and clean slate. I hope these organizational tips will help you feel motivated to make great goals and take the steps to achieve them! </span></span></div>
<ol style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; list-style-type: decimal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 8pt;">

First things first, you need to get rid of anything you don’t use on a regular basis or have a specific plan for. I think this is one of the best organizational tips because the result is peace of mind and it’s glorious.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>
</li>
<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; list-style-type: decimal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Organize your spaces. Well, now that you have decluttered, it’s time to move on to the actual organization. Go through and organize each space, be sure to start small. Go from room to room until everything has become organized. Unless you have an entire week dedicated solely to organization, this could take awhile so be sure to set small goals and don’t wear yourself out. I think that organizational tips should include rewards, so give yourself a treat after each area you have finished!</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>

<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; list-style-type: decimal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

Belongings aren’t the only things that need to be organized, events and activities should be too! Make sure to write down your plans and to-do’s in a planner. If there is no blank space, it’s probably time to cut back and determine which things are a high priority and which things you will need to say no to.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Put things away immediately. This is one of the organizational tips that is super important for keeping an organized lifestyle. It’s way too easy to get unorganized so try to make sure everything has a place it belongs and it gets put there immediately after being used.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Make lists. Even if you aren’t a list person, try to make a list at least once a week, with goals and specific deadlines. This is important when it comes to organizational tips because it will help you be aware of what’s a priority so you can organize your schedule accordingly. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>

Sometimes the key to being organized is simply not getting overwhelmed. If you can delegate tasks to other people, do it! Set up a chore list for your children to help with the cleaning or ask a friend to join you for some wine and cooking weekly meals.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>
</li>
<li dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; list-style-type: decimal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Organize your computer. Organizational tips apply to your digital presence, too! Take care of emails right away, organize them into folders or delete the ones you will never need again. Organize photos and documents so your desktop doesn’t get overloaded with documents you don’t even use anymore. Clutter free is the way to be!   </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>

Hopefully, being organized will give you more time for free time. If you still feel like you are running around, please dedicate some time for yourself! Burnout can cause depression or make you too tired to care about organization so this is very important.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>

Establish daily goals in your mind, or write them down if you are list person. Thinking about and planning your day the night before or morning of will get your mind on track for success from the beginning.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br class="kix-line-break" /></span></span></div>
