My Top 10 of 2015 (Part 1)

It’s a new year and I have been thinking about my top 10 items.*  Instead of making a New Year’s Resolution, what will you take with you into 2016 for better results?*  These 2015 events served us to do better, taught us or reminded us of what’s important.

* 

What I learned this year:

1 ” Change my routine to stay fresh.*  Allow change in my life to be an adventure instead of an interruption.*  Change the route to work.*  When talking with friends and family about politics, government or serious types of discussions; take the opposite side of the debate to determine if you are being objective.*  In 2015, it’s the first time I ever took time out for a sit-down lunch at 3 p.m. before my next event.*  Isn’t it funny that we don’t do what we tell others is necessary!*  Being a control freak, I will continue to work on this.*  What about you?

 

2 – Seek out others to help you in areas that is not your natural strength. * LAC hired a Virtual Executive Administrator.*  This move allows me to spend less time on operational details and more time on client needs, preparations and potential clients.*  Brenda’s strength is working on details and support work which is not my forte.*  This allows me to work with clients and creative custom work which are my strengths.

 

3 ” Be thankful for all things.*  This was a year of family illness and business challenges.*  I’m learning (notice this is not “already learned”) that situations and events come into my life to teach me things.*  I can resist change (aka as learning).*  Know this.*  Unless change (learning) is painful, we go back to our old habits later.*  Let’s be thankful for these situations and events as life improvements.

 

 

4 ” Marry a person who can fix things (Bob MacGyver). * My husband, Bob,*  * is the best LAC employee who doesn’t get paid.*  He is always willing and able to fix whatever needs fixing.*  He is willing to put gas in my car when I’ve come in late at night and need to be out early the next day.*  I’m one lucky girl!

 

 

 

5 ” Do not allow others to take video of you dancing; it hurts your pride and damages your creative dancing skills.*  I was cutting a rug thinking I was in the groove!*  Well, once I saw this video:it made me think of a Seinfeld video where Elaine was dancing.*  If you haven’t seen it, take 47 seconds and watch this hysterical groove.*  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xi4O1yi6b0
