THE BEST IS YET TO COME

Blog Posted By Rodney Saulsberry
Monday, December 2, 2013
This is my last blog of the year.  It's also my chance to remind you that the best is yet to come. With your positive attitude you are about to experience and embrace your greatest year ever!

When you review this past year, make a list of all the "positive things" that happened and take one last time to enjoy them in your mind again. Reminisce and relieve each positive experience to the extent that you feel like they are literally happening all over again for you both mentally and physically. Promise yourself that you will work hard next year to feel this way most of the time.

Immediately, while you are still in this present state of "feeling good," start making a list of positive goals that you plan to achieve next year. Push yourself to come up with something different from past New Years Resolutions.

Commit to working harder in 2014

If we are truly going to be successful from this day forward, we have to put in the work. All the greats have the attitude that the road to excellence is paved with hard work.

Most of us do not see the journey it takes to master an art, sport or business - we see only the endpoint. The famous pianist Vladimir Horowitz once said, "If I don't practice for one day, I know it. If I don't practice for two days, my wife knows it. If I don't practice for three days, the world knows it."

Every great success story has one facet in common: hard work.

As we come to the end of this remarkable year, let us take the time to pat ourselves on the back and say "well done." We collectively deserve that self-congratulatory gesture because we are alive and well in these tumultuous times. However, outside of surviving, ask yourself, did I really put in the work? Was I truly the best that I could be the entire year? Did I truly give it my all? If your answer was no to any of those questions, then you have even more work to do in 2014.

Promise yourself that next year you won't take the easy way out. Take risks next year. Go that extra mile and remember, The Best is Yet to Come.

5 End Of The Year Tips

5 End Of The Year Tips

Make an Investment

If you can afford it this Holiday Season, make an investment in your voice over business with the purchase of a piece of equipment that you have always wanted. Enroll in an upcoming workshop or attend a voice over related event.  It is always more rewarding to give, but you should also think about investing in yourself and your career along the way. Work with a coach for a few months.  

Make The Off Time Work For You

During the winter break between Christmas and New Years is the perfect time for you to prepare for the New Year. Plan the first three months of the year. Set goals that you plan to accomplish by the end of the first three months of the year.
