Last year, I set myself 100 goals for 2016, and whilst I didn’t achieve all of them, I achieved an awful lot more last year, than I have in past years. In doing so, I noticed a shift in perspective.

I actually started looking for opportunities, and I took them.

So in 2016, I did far more than I’d originally planned:

  • When a TV company asked for people to apply for a new show, I applied.
  • At the Transform your Business and Life seminar, I signed up as a VIP and bought a stand at the event.
  • When there was an opportunity to meet and greet Sir Roger Moore, I signed up.
  • When the blog awards came up, I submitted my blog. It wasn’t shortlisted, but I tried.
  • When we went to a restaurant and saw that they did a 7 course tasting menu, we booked to go the next day!
  • When I went on a spa day and noticed that they did acupuncture, I booked a session.
  • When a friend posted about attending a Tony Robbins event and doing the firewalk, I realised that was a goal I wanted to achieve too, and that I could.
  • When friends on Facebook started talking about their experiences of doing the Camino Way, I started reading about it and decided that would be another thing that I would love to do, but I would need to work on my fitness levels.

So I’ve decided to make the coming year another fabulous one. And this year I’m going one better. Literally. These are my 101 goals for 2017!
