A PRIMER FOR LIFE-NICE KICK OFF THOUGHT FOR 2012

1.  Positive Thinking. 
There is considerable evidence that having a positive, optimistic, can-do frame of mind will lead to much better outcomes in many circumstances than having a negative, pessimistic or cynical approach.  Positive thinkers generally do better, live longer, and are healthier and happier.

2.  Focus, Goal Setting and Planning. 
There are many benefits in having a clear focus on what you want to achieve, in setting goals, in measuring progress against those goals and in taking corrective actions when you fall short.

3.  Visualization. 
Visualising a successful action can assist you to achieve it.  If you are nervous about making a speech then visualizing yourself giving a confident, dynamic performance will help you to do just that. 

4.  Self-Belief.
 Most successful people have enormous self-belief.  They know that they have something special to offer and that they can achieve great things.  They use this self-belief as the basis on which to build the plans

5.  An Attitude of Gratitude. 
Most of us have a great deal to be thankful for.  Counting our blessings and giving thanks help put ours lives into perspective and engender a positive frame of mind.
