Wow… here we are just a few days left of 2007 and the start of 2008. Time really goes by pretty fast doesn’t it?
- Are you going to make any resolutions for 2008?
- Did you keep the resolutions you made for 2007?
Well over 20 years ago I made a resolution that I have kept year in and year out. That resolution is “No More Resolutions!”
Oh I used to make them every year… and every year within months, if not weeks and sometimes within days – I would break that resolution – 1-2-3!
Hey that is fine — but then I would beat myself up for breaking the resolution! What a ridiculous circle that was for me! The kind of resolutions I made were things like – “I will be more organized – I will clean up the clutter” — Well to tell you the truth “being organized” does not float my boat!
And within my clutter – I am organized. I truly know where everything is… so what was the problem? Apparently I had some rule in my head that said “You must not have clutter”. That was not my rule – so why follow it?
So I don’t make resolutions – but I do always have intentions. Intentions – things I am intending to accomplish. Every few months I actually do have the intention of cleaning up some of the clutter… It isn’t a rule – it just starts to feel to me – OK the clutter is bothering me now – so I’ll clean it up a bit. Ahhh that is so much softer – and it is so easy for me to then follow that intention.
Not only are these the last days of the year – but for me it is also my birthday. Today, the 28th, is my birthday. Don’t ask me my age – if you do I will tell you I am 8 years old – just like I say in my about me page! 
So it just feels right for me at this time to look back at the previous year and to set some intentions for the coming year…. I don’t just set intentions for the coming year – I look back and appreciate all the wonders of 2007!
Now you might be thinking – the wonders of 2007!? I can’t wait for this year to end and maybe I can start all over brandie new!
Well since today is my birthday – I have a gift for you… This gift is a book I just finished and it is all about how to end the year and start anew. What’s it called? “Out With the Old…. In With the New!”
Now I just finished up this ebook and I just sent it to my editor – - which means I am going to release it to you before I get the OK on it…. Well I think it is ready. So if there are typos – Oh well…. a few typos never hurt anybody!
This book is a powerful process for you to use to clean up 2007 and get ready for a spectacular 2008!

Happy Birthday Ellie!!! I am a couple days late but I want to wish you a happy birthday and a happy, prosperous new year. I’ve had the same resolution as you do – No resolutions, for quite a few years now and it works fine for me. Yes, intentions are a much better idea.

Hi Phil….
Thanks for the birthday & new year wishes!
Resolutions come from my head – Intentions come from my intuition. For me — that is a much better way to live!
Wishing you a Wonder-Filled New Year!
