Recharging your Batteries

Well it seems as though most people are on the path to total burn out myself included. I wanted to take a moment to remind everyone of the importance of recharging your batteries, filling your soul, smelling the flowers etc. So I cannot stress how important it is to make sure that you are taking the time that you need at least once a week to do something that you love,spend quality time with friends and family and recharge. Some people recharge with sitting down for some quiet time reading, riding their bikes, walking in the forest etc. I encourage you to make a list of the top five things that bring you the most joy, love and effortless smiles in your life. Now really stop reading this and make a list. Now when was the last time that you did one or all of these things? If it has been to long than it is time to change those priorities and make recharging your soul and finding your happiness a real priority.
Not so long ago I was listening to some Brian Tracy a great person to listen to if you are interested in goal setting and well I think just being a better and more aware person. Anyway he was talking about sitting down and writing out what your goals are on one piece of paper. On a second piece of paper writing out your goals as if money was of no hindrance and you could do what ever you wanted. On the third piece of paper making a list of what your goals would be if you found out that you only had six months to live. I found the third list to be the hardest myself, with a limited time what could I cram into this list? He suggests that you then look at these three lists and see if there are some common goals between the three. If you are not working towards the goals on the third list now you really need to re-evaluate what is important to you and start recharging and fulfilling your goals now.
It is almost that time of the year in which the new years resolutions come out and the drive to be better is in full force. I hope that you will take the time to make these three lists for yourself and focus on taking the time to fulfill your soul and recharge your batteries.  We look forward to hearing all of your plans to recharge your own souls and to make this the best life that you have.
Happy new year!
