Sunday Night Success

Here at SNS we take action every week to make progress in making our dreams come true. By setting clear defined actions every week, being accountable to others and then celebrating those successes makes our progress focused, tangible and way more fun.

But there are times where we are working on something that is really difficult or we just feel down and need a pick up.  In the past I focused on adding coffee to my body to help in these times. While this is close to the right idea – making changes in your body to help the brain become more active or to help raise your emotions – it falls short.

The following are three things that I do to help myself feel happier and better focused through the day.
- Realize that you can decide how you want to feel – figure out how you want to feel, make a clear decision that you are going to feel this way and say it out loud to yourself 5 times.
- Get out of your desk and do some stretches with deep breathing.  By getting your blood flowing through your entire body every 45 mins to 1 hour you can feel refreshed and focused again.
- Change your body language - instead of being hunched over and looking down while walking try walking like John Travolta at the beginning of Saturday Night Fever.  Not only will you look cool but you will feel 10 times better. See – How to Strut

These are just the beginning.  Yoga, tai chi, meditation and many other diciplines have lots of great ideas on how to feel better that take just a moment to preform.  If you have any other ways to feel better then share them with us by commenting below.

You will have to excuse me as I need to practice my strut.

Building a better blog

I have joined the Problogger “31 Days to a Better Blog” challenge to help me develop Sunday Night Success into the blog I have envisioned. The first task of the challenge was to write an elevator speech to summarize the basic purpose of your blog. I have a feeling there may be more drafts, but here is the first elevator speech vision of Sunday Night Success.

The Speech

Do you set goals for yourself but have difficulty achieving them? So did I until I joined my Sunday Night Success group and started achieving the results I desired. Sunday Night Success, the blog, aims to help you succeed in reaching your goals by assisting you in:
1. creating a vision.
2. setting goals.
3. organizing action steps.
4. completing your action steps.
5. being accountable for your goals.

How will Sunday Night Success help you do this? Through community is the simple answer. By presenting articles on success and goal setting; sharing my own goals on the blog; and by bringing people together to share in all of the steps necessary to successfully achieve their goals, I hope to help as many people as possible realize the success I have found by focusing on your goals just one night a week.

Details to follow

I am currently finalizing my posting schedule for Sunday Night Success which, once finished, will map out the overall procedure for what I am hoping to do a bit better. So, please, continue to be patient as I continue to develop this blog into a vehicle for helping as many people as possible achieve the success they have always wanted.
