THE SANTABLOG SERIES
DAY 8

Day 8, welcome to the 2nd week of The Santablog Series.
I chose this song today because more and more people every year forget the run up to Christmas is a special time of the year.
People forget that these last few weeks before Christmas is what we have worked all year for, I mean come on we all work our arses off all year and when December come around it means it’s coming to the end of another year and before that end we have a celebration that brings us all together.
Christmas isn’t all about the 25th, it’s about the excitement of building up to the 25th and also to celebrate the fact you have made it past another year, the time after Christmas is a celebratory period to officially say goodbye to the year gone by and the welcoming of a new one.
I mean come on the end of a year leading to another one is the best kind of time, it bring all sorts of magic to the table. Hopes and dreams that you haven’t achieved this year feed the need to try harder next year. Every year we say we are going to make this one better, the beginning of hopes and dreams renewed.
Some people call the new year resolutions, but we should be calling them new year promises.
Some people say my new year resolution is to stop smoking, or to loose weight, or to eat more healthy, maybe even to spend more time doing things for yourself.
They never work do they?
A couple of weeks in work stresses you out you have a smoke, you get too tempted for that cake you have some and start again tomorrow, you eat a chocolate bar because your sick of eating fruit, you end up doing nothing for yourself because your kids or partner are more important.
So let resolutions be gone, fuck em off they make no difference. Let’s have a change, let’s make new year plans and new year promises write them down in a note pad or diary or even on my comments list, then read them back in a month’s time and ask yourself “Have you accomplished that promise or plan?” If not, why not? Start making plans to help those promises and plans along, then come back a month later and ask yourself “Am I closer to completing this mission? Am I a step closer to making this plan a reality? Have I kept my promise?”
Here is a challenge ….. I want everyone who reads this to comment below their plan or mission (if you can’t comment, message me at my EMAILor FACEBOOK MESSENGER or TWITTER or LINKEDIN or SNAPCHAT) and in January I’ll write your plans in a blog as a collective (named or anonymous) and I’ll do everything in my power to remind you every month until you tell me you have completed and congratulate you in a special blog. This is my gift to you, my gift to help you achieve your goals and mission completed achievements. Ok that’s what I can do, a “MISSION COMPLETED” special. Every time you achieve your goal next year you will be the star to me next mission completed.
AND THUS, AN IDEA IS BORN.
(Not a bad idea considering I literally just came up with that in the bath eh? Yes I’m blogging in the bath, I do my thinking in the safety of my bath tub)
My goal next year is to finish my book, ok a few more, I want to do more blogs, I want to help others achieve their goals and help others succeed and succeed myself.
But all in all my “mission completed” goal next year will be to finish my book.
On top of that I hope to publish, but as I’m not very clever in that department it may take a little time to accomplish that.
I’ll also be posting about that on my socials too, so let’s see if I get any.
So be all and end all, next year will be an amazing one, for me and you and everyone.
