1. Fewer resolutions. More resolve.
2. Increase your daily level of optimism. AMAZING things will start to happen!
3. Be a lamp. Or a lifeboat. Or a ladder.
4. Mean people suck. Don't become one of them. Not even for a second.

6. Feature and leverage other people. Read this to find out how.
7. Be more gracious and more grateful.

10. Create a mastermind alliance or partnership. It will make all the difference.
11. Write your damn book already.
12. Drink more water.

15. Make more lists and use them wisely.
16. When it comes to social media: Post value (not ego); Retweet generously; Shout-out loudly; Thank abundantly.

18. Get more sleep.
19. Do more of what makes you happy.

26. Tap into trends to generate more and better ideas for both your business and your life. Start here or here. (Read this to see how Harvard Business Review connects trend hunting with sales success, too.)
27. Stop worrying about the HOW. Focus on your bigass WHY and a small set of very specific WHATs. The rest will take care of itself. Honest.
28. Become more in tune with the time/space continuum. Seriously. Rather than wanting everything to happen "Now, now, and now" (which only causes overwhelm and frustration) focus more consistently on what you need to do "Next, next, and next."
29. The three factors to your long-term success: 1. Your Authenticity 2. Your Expertise 3. Your Enthusiasm.
