A Personal Note from Cari
Cari Vollmer

Happy New Year!

If you only knew how many times I listened to "Let’s Get it Started" by the Black Eyed Peas in the last year, you'd think I was one of their biggest fans. It's the most listened to song on my iPod! There's something about declaring a moment in time a STARTING POINT that feels very powerful and on track to me. :)

Therefore, in the high octaine, yet soulful energy of starting something meaningful, purposeful and fulfilling in your life, I'd like to wish you a Happy New Year AND ask this question:

What are you going to do differently this year so you can begin living the life you really want?

Scratching your head?

Sorry to stump you so early in the New Year but I really want YOU to get moving in the right direction (whatever that direction is for you) so you can finally live the life you were born to live - a life that FEELS GOOD!

When it comes to creating the life you really want it comes down to a simple concept: stop doing things that don't work and start doing things that do work. Adding RITUALS to your life will support you in doing what works, over and over again.

To kick-off the New Year this week’s brand new article will show you how creating RITUALS in your life will help you stay on track, through thick and thin. Rituals can be used as anchors; meaningful and consistent routines that keep you fully connected to your goals, your values, and your spirit.

On a personal note, I had a great Christmas/New Year break and I hope you did, too. After a long weekend with friends at a rustic lakeside cabin in northern Minnesota I found myself really LETTING GO. We had a blast singing songs, playing games, and toasting in the New Year. Definitely a ritual I want to continue!

Wishing you happiness and success,



P.S. Stay tuned for info on my NEW! 12-week Feel Great NOW! E-Course. From the comfort of your own home or office you can take a course where I'll systematically walk you through the principles and steps you can take to gain control of your life and your happiness. Not only that, but I'll be offering a New Year discount AND you'll get personal coaching from me!

I'll take the mystery out of what it takes to feel good, more days than not, and share with you the same principles that worked for me and continue working for me. I know they'll work for you, too. I can't wait to unveil this brand new course!

P.P.S. WELCOME NEW SUBSCRIBERS! A bunch of you joined us and I'm so glad you did. If you feel like it, send me an email and tell me a little about yourself. I'm glad you are here.

P.P.P.S. My friend and mastermind member has just released this online move:

Rituals: Your secret weapon for getting what you want!

Even if you don’t think you have rituals in your life, you do. For example, Do you brush your teeth every morning? That’s a ritual. Do you eat lunch pretty much at the same time everyday? That’s a ritual. Do you go to bed at the same time every evening? That’s a ritual, too.

However, if you're like most people, I bet a lot of your rituals are pretty unconscious and feel more like a habit than anything more meaningful. You do them because you’ve always done them. But, have you ever wondered how they truly serve your life?

Rituals, or meaningful and consistent routines, are actions you take for the sake of keeping you on track and focused on the big picture you have for your life.

For example, everyday I read something that will help me grow as a business owner. Everyday! It has become such an important part of my day I always make time for it. Reading material that will help me become a wiser, more effective business owner serves my goal of building a successful business I love.

Another ritual I have is to take a mid-afternoon break, everyday, to quiet my mind and get in touch with what my gut is telling me. This time helps me reconnect to my spirit and that helps me stay on track. I LOVE this time I've made for myself. Love it!

The rituals you create should be things you WANT to do, rather than things you think you “should” do. The basic idea of a ritual is for it to be something you look forward to doing. Rituals will enhance your life and they are fun to do. Rituals are conscious actions you take that serve the life you are choosing to create.

Examples of life-giving rituals include:

*Eating a healthy breakfast everyday
*Daily reading of spiritual, personal growth and success books
*Daily quiet time
*Attending weekly mastermind group
*Lighting a candle before important conversations
*Exercising
*Twice monthly massages
*Prayer
*Giving thanks at the end of each day for the gifts that day brought your way
*Beginning each day with a plan, or intention
*Eating dinner with your family, at the table, each night
*Kissing and hugging every family member before going to sleep.
*Telling the people you love, you love them, everyday
*Flossing your teeth daily
*Taking your vitamins everyday
*Drinking lots of water everyday

The idea is for your rituals to be fun and supportive and something you WANT to do.

Success in life is a result of taking a few good actions, over and over again, until you achieve the results you want. Rituals will add substance to your actions and make life feel more meaningful.
