Enjoy rewarding life instead of a life of regret . . .
"There is an alternative to regret. In the next few days, consider making January 1, 2007 the day that you begin a new chapter in your life story, a chapter in which you actually write about your beloved dream, or one of many beloved dreams. In January, Dare to Dream. Dare to consider the possibility that you can pursue your dreams, big and small, if you pick just one and pusue it with a passion. If you're not sure what your true dreams are, or which ones to pursue, or how to pursue them - drop by in the coming year. I'll be here day after day - working on my 2007 dream: helping you to achieve your dream, your 2007 New Year Resolution."

"Just five days and counting! Are you ready for the New Year? Are you ready to open your mind and Dare To Dream? Pursue Your Dream? Achieve Your Dream?
Are you ready to stop waiting for 'Someday?' Someday I'll write that book. Someday I'll start exercising. Someday I'll learn photography. Someday I'll spend more quality time with my kids. Someday I'll get a new job. Someday I'll pay off my debt. Someday, someday, someday . . .
Think about it. Those somedays add up: days turn into months, months into years. The years pass by so quickly. Instead of waiting to 'pursue your dream someday far in the future' do it in 2007.
One Resolution, One Day At A Time For One Year. Let's 'go for it' in 2007!"

"Get rid of the boulder on your back! Cut the Chains it and let it roll back down the hill. Forget about the making a long list of 10-20 resolutions for 2007. Instead, lighten the load. Grab your water bottle, snacks, a light jacket, and a good pair of tennis shoes. If you're going to hike up the mountain toward the pinnacle of success in 2007 - make that journey with just one resolution, a dream about which you are truly passionate. A resolution that makes you excited, something that you want to 'do' each and every day. And if that's not realistic, resolution that you can pursue a few days each week for one year - committment and daily, weekly, monthly devotion are among the keys to success."

"Achieving a New Year Resolution - a dream - requires a leap of faith. It takes committment and hard work. It takes a promise that you make to yourself to make time for yourself and your dream in 2007. Open your mind. Dare to dream. Then make that all important decision in January to 'go for it' in 2007. One resolution, one day at a time for one year!"

"Based on everything you read and hear about New Year Resolutions, you'd think 'making and keeping' them is a near-dead practice. Personally, I'm not giving up, and I hope you'll consider making one New Year Resolution in 2007, and sticking with it.
New Year Resolutions may very well be 'antiques', a beloved practice from a bygone era. But, instead of giving up on them - throwing them in the 'trash heap' - in 2007, consider dusting them off and applying a bit of 'spit and polish'. Join the Resolution Revolution in 2007. On January 1, open your mind, dare to dream, and change the way you create your New Year Resolutions."

"Become a resolution revolutionary like me. It's time to drastically change the way you think about New Year Resolutions and goals. In 2007 say 'no' to that tired, old list of 'stuff' that you think you should change about yourself, or think you should do, but know you will discard as soon as you put pen to paper. Make January 1 a truly new day, a day in which you promise yourself that you will pursue your cherished dream."

Make one New Year resolution on January 1, 2007: pursue a cherished dream.
"The act of pursuing and achieving your dream can and will help you to find fulfillment in your life. I'm not going to predict it's going to change your life forever, or be the best year you've ever had. Without question, you're going to hit bumps in the road, we all do, that's life. But each and every time you put your heart and soul into something you love, you will learn something, reap rewards and find personal fullfilment."
