Happy New Year's 2021- oops - Jumanji 2021

Hi ya Gorgeous,

Well, here we are. Ready to put 2020 to rest. Wow. 

 

What a year. 2021 on the cusp of breaking forth in California and I'm excited for it. Not tip toeing around the possibility of 2020 residue sliming the goodness that is on my path for now, this season.

I really had high hopes and expectations for the new era, the ayin season of pey and to enter into the "roaring 20's" in a good way. At first glance, it doesn't even look like that in the least bit with pandemics, and lock downs, and over reaching abuse of power.  But, on a second look, I see that in 2020, I had much to be thankful for.

Perhaps that's the key going forward into the era of  '20's? This decade is about taking a step and counting the blessing in the step forward. Or even, if that step is one that is held in place. In music, that pause, is powerful. The space between notes is just as important as the note. 

So I leave 2020, and go into 2021, with these encouraging words from Psalms 24: 7-10

Lift up your heads, O you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.

 

You are going to make it! Things are going to be ok! In fact, things are gonna be good! You are going to breakout of the stall of 2020 like calf leaping into a fresh green field! Go! Go! Go!

Wow.

REsolve Tuesday: Double Down

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Thank you so much for tuning in to today's episode fro REsolve  Tuesday!
Today we are going to talk about how to "double  down" on your 2019 goals for the final 43 days of the year.

There is still time to take massive action (so Tony Robbins...) on your finance and fitness goals. Why do I say just these two, finance and fitness? Because in the almost full year that I have been doing REsolve Tuesday blogs - almost all comments come down to those two areas. There have been a few others who said they really wanted to do major worldwide travel - and were just getting the finance in order to do so.


Let this word encourage you! Please "double down" on your 2019 goals because there is still time to achieve them!

REsolve Tuesday / Begin Again - 49 days left in 2019 - What Do You NEED To Do?

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Thank you so much for tuning in today and watching this 49 day countdown for achieving goals til 2020. Whoa. 2020!

Ok. Let that sink in. You are a mere 49 days, less than 2 months away from the beginning of a new decade. No Y2K fear here. Just reverence for the time and knowing what needs to be done. Period.

In the thumbnail for the video, you can see that I have 2 lists made. Out of all the comments and emails I receive about the #REsolveTuesday series, it can all be boiled down to 2 main categories of goals people are working on, money and health.

Some are looking to reduce debt, or increase income while others are looking to lose weight, gain muscle and get into a healthy fit lifestyle.

I know how life can do you sideways and get you off track of what you had set out to accomplish.

So please see how simple my lists are and how you can implement and modify them into your week - then copy it into your iCalendar or google calendar and put an alarm in your phone so you don't miss taking massive action on your dreams. Which by the way, are worthy of being accomplished and pursued.

Money list: massive action step areas to do daily/weekly
 
1.  Calls:  old clients, new clients, past clients, people who didn't become clients
2. Emails: newsletter, follow ups, reach outs, cold emails, introductions
3. Meetings: meet with yourself and firm up your goals/actions, make meeting with clients
4. Upsell:  where in your product/podcast/newsletter can you upsell - or book another client
5.  Socials: how can you improve your social activity for your bottom line
6.  Live videos:  where & when can you add live video for your business
7. REST - God made the Earth in 6 days then rested. If it's good enough for God, it will work for you too!

Health list:  massive action steps for your fitness

1. Walk - which day are you walking on and is it for distance or heart rate
2.  Fast - intermittent fasting helps your body - when can you add this to your week
3. Weightlifting - this step is so key to building bone mass and strength while increasing metabolism to burn fat when resting - so when can you add weights?  Weights while walking?
4. Class: if you need motivation of a group, join a class and make it a priority.
5.  Buddy test:  doing a workout/run/class with another person to challenge you and hold accountable
6. Outdoor workout - mix it up to keep your body guessing and using different muscles is one benefit and the other is that it's just good to get outdoors.
7.  REST - God made the Earth in 6 days then rested. If it's good enough for God, it will work for you too!






Please let me know in the comments what you are working on to achieve by 2020! Thank you for watching - please subscribe and share!
