Is April 1, 2010 on your mind? Methinks it should be . . .

Today is October 30 . . .

The day before Halloween

Wikipedia tells me Halloween "celebrates the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darker half" . . . has some elements of a festival of the dead. . . . Some believe that the border between this world and the Otherworld becomes thin on Halloween, allowing spirits (both harmless and harmful) to pass through. The family's ancestors were honoured and invited home whilst harmful spirits were warded off. It is believed that the need to ward off harmful spirits led to the wearing of costumes and masks. Their purpose was to disguise oneself as a harmful spirit and thus avoid harm.

Halloween is "also a time to take stock of food supplies and slaughter livestock for winter stores. Bonfires played a large part in the festivities. All other fires were doused and each home lit their hearth from the bonfire. The bones of slaughtered livestock were cast into its flames.^[10] Sometimes two bonfires would be built side-by-side, and people and their livestock would walk between them as a cleansing ritual.

Another common practise was divination, which often involved the use of food and drink."

Hmmm . . . I believe Halloween is a pivotal day in the definition of your success in the coming year (2010).

Each Halloween marks the "right" time for you to cast your vision for APRIL 1 - 5 months away . . . and to prepare yourself and your business to maintain your momentum through this "Darker Half" of the year.

Ward off those evil Spirits who would try to distract you . . . Spirits that might invoke:

Seasonal Depression

Loss of focus on key Business habits

Offering you permission to party in lieu of keeping your eye on your goals

Providing limitless opportunities to over-spend, over-eat, and drink excessively.

Have fun, but tame those Spirits beginning NOW.

The last thing I want for you is for you to "wake up" some time in January and realize that you are deeply in debt with few (if any) viable leads for your business . . . in a cold sweat of fear.

So . . .

Go ahead and set yourself a BIG GOAL for the month of April 2010 . . . and then set a goal for March - Then February - Then January - Then December - Then November . . .

And beginning TODAY, set your sights on that April goal and GET MOVING!

That BIG April goal will pull your through your "way-points" of the other months and the "Darker Half" of the year.

I'm just sayin'

Best,
