You have a brand New Year in front of you. A New year to do with what you wish.
Consider that even when you do something as simple as going to the grocery store or baking a cake you use a list or a recipe. In fact you don’t expect to be successful without one. For more complex things like flying we certainly hope our pilot uses a checklist! I know that when I fly Airshow Aerobatics in my airplane I go over my checklist many times. I want to be successful.
So what about a life recipe, a life checklist? It only makes sense that something as important as your life, your New Year, deserves a recipe or checklist as well. Yet we rarely even consider this truth.
Consider these “ingredients” as a start to developing your Life Recipe. Keep in mind the quantity and sequence of ingredients is important as well.1. Spirituality
2. Family
3. Fuel (ie. what you eat/put in you body)
4. Motion (ie. exercise, outdoor activities, active sports)
5. Work (need a change?, develop new interests/skills)
6. Meaningfulness/Passion (beyond work and home)
7. Productivity (beyond work-to create, build, produce)
8. Social interaction
9. FUN!
