This New Year, I decided to focus on only one thing. And I am thrilled that I did! I know that if I can make a significant improvement in this one area, all other areas of my life will dramatically improve!

In a school in China students throw eggs at the school uniform to wreck the uniform on graduation day. The action symbolizes a break from the past and a start of a new journey.

How about creating a ritual today where you break from the past - the past in your case can be a scarcity, mentality habit or lack of discipline.

Today is the 1st day of the month. Every first of the month can be a powerful way to begin afresh. For that matter every day can be a fresh beginning. However, a daily fresh day will too much for most of you! What can you do every first of the month? Ask yourself the following questions:

• How can I be a better giver to myself? – Perhaps more exercise, reflection time, avoid guilt?
• How can I give more to my family? – be a loving dad, husband, and son?
• How can I give more at work? – be a mentor, team player?
