What are your Goals for 2014?




What path will you follow?
What reinforces your values?
Will we continue to be changed by the events that surround us or will we take the chance to change ourselves first?

Will we be better off on January 2, 2015 than we are today?

At least think about this list as you reflect on not where you have been but more so on where you are headed:

Just Being Right                                                      Politically Correct
Goodness                                                                Darkness
Humble                                                                     Arrogant
Trust in God                                                             Gods/Atheist/Agnostic
Personal Responsibility                                         Government Responsibility
Truth                                                                          Distorted Truth
Property Rights                                                       Eminent Domain     
Save                                                                         Spend
No debt                                                                    Debt
Act                                                                            React
Deregulate                                                              Regulate
US                                                                            UN
Individual Salvation                                                Collective Salvation
Manage Your Own Money                                     Let Government Distribute Your Money
Altruistic                                                                  Selfish

Ronald Reagan Quotes:
                                                           
“If we ever forget that we are ‘One Nation Under God,’ then we will be a nation gone under.”

“Wouldn’t it be better for the human spirit and for the soul of this nation to encourage people to accept more responsibility to care for each other rather than leaving those tasks to paid bureaucrats?”

“We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give”

2013 was a year of skepticism, lack of trust, anxiety, and many questions with few answers

2014 will be just like last year unless we accept individual responsibility and make a difference by:

Acting rather than Reacting to events
Being an Optimist
Investing in Others
Living in a State of Gratitude
Practicing Relentless Preparation
Having Strong Beliefs

Will we continue to be changed by the events that surround us or will we take the chance to change ourselves first?

For each one of us, we have to recognize our actions affect our sphere of influence so maybe, just maybe, we will take on 2014 with strong convictions, personal responsibility and concentrate on family, faith and freedom.
