25 Days of Christmas -Day 1

The theme on here for the next 25 days goes along with the 25 days of Christmas.
Each day of the month before Christmas you all await something or give something and I want to be part of that.

For the first day of Christmas: PLANNING

Think about all you have to do, get and prepare before the biggest day of the year.
I'll bet many of you plan to save money all year round for gifts.
Figure out where the best deals are and make plans for the biggest shopping day; Black Friday.
Make a list of who and what you will buy where.
Once it's wrapping time you have specific wrapping paper, bows and name tags for each present.
Then you organize the placement of the gifts; under the tree or to the side if they go with you as you visit during the holiday.
Speaking of Holiday visiting...I bet you figure out where you will be and when way before December is even a thought. You probably plan that on Christmas Day for the next year.

...So all this planning for such big things...memories.....moments of happiness!

Where is this spirit outside of the Holidays-Christmas?!
Why don't you save all year for that new gym you wanted to go to, or that training package you always dreamed about?
Ask for the best deals, shop for value and purchase that perfect gift of health.
Make a list of what you want to accomplish and how you will do it!
Think about all the prep that goes into the presentation of your gifts...why not think the same way about yourself?! Don't you want to feel that excitement when you put on that pair of pants you never thought you'd get into? Don't you want that feeling of exhilaration when you put on your bathing suit for the first time of the year? And nothing can beat the feeling of success when you get your measurements and find out you have the lowest body fat % OF YOUR LIFE!

Treat yourself as if you are as important as the biggest Holiday of the year. Plan for the best day of the year...the day you show off your success to everyone who matters to you. The day you give the best gift you can to the ones you love, YOU!

Remember not planning is planning to fail.
How happy would everyone be with your presents if you picked them out the day before with no real thought and no money saved...worse, how would you feel?!

If only you could take all of that motivation to plan for Christmas, wrap it up and open it up when you need it for other projects in life.....
