Slaters' Funny Farm

Good Afternoon! As the new year approached, I was deciding whether I should make a resolution or not, as it seems that they usually go by the wayside before January is over. I just learned that yesterday is National Quit Day, where most people quit doing whatever they chose as their resolution. Why do we make them if we know we won't do them? Is it just human nature that we fail at what we start? I gave the idea a bit of thought and decided that instead of setting myself up for failure, I would set myself up an accountability program and find things that would organize my life and my business goals in one place and that I could change with my ever-changing responsibilities. I began to look at different online sites and people that are geared towards organizing and goals. I found Sage Grayson, a former book editor turned life and business coach.  Sage seems to understand women and all of the duties that we take on and how discouraged we can become.

I want to make more money with my Pink Zebra business and I want to pay off some bills that I have struggled with recently. I ...

New Years is always a chance to look back on the previous year and see what we could have done differently and a chance to make some new goals and resolutions for yourself. I personally never really make resolutions as I am always sure that they will be broken before the month of January is over. Goals are another thing because you can meet them at anytime and you can never completely break a goal. Setting goals in our lives can put pressure on us at times, but can always cause us to work harder in our daily lives. I personally set several goals at the beginning of the year for myself and for my family. In my personal life, I tend to make goals for different aspects of my life. My first goal is always to have a closer walk with Jesus Christ. I believe that my Lord and Saviour deserves a close walk and that we can always work harder at having a closer relationship with Him. Secondly, I choose to set goals for what things I want to change in my "career". I consider my online wr...
