Its a new year! 2008 is the year of living your goals.

This morning presents another sunny skies day, with just a few wistful light fluffy clouds in an otherwise azure blue sky.

For the third time this year (in three days) we wake up to perfect conditions.

I always pictured running an International business from my laptop while travelling to exotic places and sharing the experience with my family.

Visualisation works, because that is exactly what I am doing.

What ever you can dream you can do - it's possible - just make a start and see it in your minds eye. Then create a little bit of action towards that vision each and every day.

The tide came in and the tide came out. Time to reflect on life,living and living my goals.

The day started with scrambled eggs, bacon on toast with fresh orange- followed by a walk in the countryside then - some fruit & nut chocolate a little later on.

The children are exploring the coves and beaches and I'm writing my first post for the year- living my goals in a heavenly spot near Cowan bay in Godzone, New Zealand.

One couldn't ask for more peaceful, perfect conditions to visualise and plan the next stage of living my goals.

I hope you are using this holiday time to maximum effect too.

Time to think in a concentrated, unfiltered, creative way.

We are fortunate in that we have just the breeze and the local bird life to interrupt our thinking.

For the second time this year, I do something I love - get on the water in a kayak.

I wish you all a clear thinking, creative & strategic 2008.

 On the 7th of this month, will see www.livemygoals.com interviewing Peta Mathias. The internationally acclaimed foodie. We'll investigate how she "plugs into her powerpack" and lives her goals. I can't wait to share it with you all.

Signing off from the waters...
