Hello World,

Time just keeps passing by…I mean it’s already the last Sunday of January 2011…Maybe I’m a little weird or maybe even self-indulgent, but it takes me a month to crystallize my goals, resolutions and dreams  for the New Year. I don’t want to just rattle off goals, resolutions and dreams and not give God the time to direct my thinking…So between today and tomorrow, I will edit my list of goals for the year which I will hang on my bathroom mirror and finish my vision board which I will display in my office…

To that end, Let me share some inspirational articles  that may help you as you crystallize your goals, resolutions and dreams for the New Year…(in no particular order)
