20 Tips for a Positive New Year

•3. Buy a TIVO, tape your late night shows and get more sleep-it's the ultimate energizer.
•4. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement: My purpose is to ________________ today.
•5. Live with the 3 E's. Energy, Enthusiasm, Empathy.
•6. Read more books than you did in 2009.
