1. Get moving! Action creates momentum.
2. Do something different. Even if you just find a new route
to walk the dog or drive to work.
3. Rejuenate your fitness program. Visit the gym three times
a week. Ask your trainer for some new routines. Take up a
new sport.
4. Do something fun -- every single day. A luxurious treat
-- anything from hot fudge to hot tubs.
5. Go to a lunch meeting of a professional organization
outside your own field. Most organizations welcome guests
and the cost will be minimal.
6. Begin brainstorming ways to start your own business. If
you have a corporate job, it's not a question of "whether"
you'll be on your own someday. It's a question of "when.":
7. Take a class on a topic that's outside your normal
expertise. A lawyer might study ceramics. Writers might
choose ancient history or water color.
8. Limit yourself to one self-help book every three months.
9. Limit your television watching to specials and favorites.
Movies and plays create energy.
10. Consider hiring a coach or counselor -- but stay away
from assessments, tests and projections. Choose a resource
who understand careers and businesses and begin with one
hour at a time.
