Where did this last month go? Are you 1/12 of the way there for your 2009 goals?

I have finished the theory part of my course, now I am taking my CPR on the weekend and then ASAP after that I will be finishing up my Personal Training Certification.

Another goal of mine for this year is to also become certified to teach Kettlebells, well On Saturday I booked myself onto a course, so all being well if I pass I will be certified on the 15th February.

The start to this year has been crazy and also a little scary, Mal on the 1st week back to work after the Christmas break got laid off, we knew that It was coming due to the major slow down in the oil industry, but it still hits you as a shock. He lined up a job straight away but it took till now for him to start.

This past month has taught us that you need to live as if this is your last pay check, and treat your money wisely. We hardly eat out anymore anyway, but still on a Saturday its easy to go through a couple hundred dollars on nothing really.

This is also why we need to have more than one way of earning money, and instead of me taking my time procrastinating my ultimate plans, I have to get going and start moving forward. We want the health and fitness industry to be supporting us totally in the next 12-18 months.

I can relate my ultimate plans to my fitness journey, it is all about baby steps, just as I have my daily weekly monthly plans for my workouts and diet, I need to also use this to get my business going. As long as I keep taking my baby steps I will reach my ultimate goals, so it starts today, I am using an hour or so today to get myself sorted with what I need to do to get my bootcamp business going, then I will lay out the plan of what I need to do everyday to take me closer to this goal.

You have no idea how scared I am, I have been a stay at home mum for nearly 12 years now this is getting out of my comfort zone big time, I am scared of failing, but you know what, I have to remember that there are going to be obstacles just as there have been on my fitness journey, and how did I get around them, well I stepped back and took a moment and reset my plans and adjusted my course.

I say that I am scared but you know what I am excited too. 2009 is going to be a hard year, but it is also going to be what you make it, it you sit back and be negative and moan about life, that is what your life will be. If you choose to be positive and think outside the box then you are going to have a hugly successful year.

I do not mean just with your business life, this all applies to your personal life too.
