Making this the best year of my life

As I mentioned earlier, after 2 years I have put my day trading activities on the back burner, or at least 2nd priority. I still keep an eye on the markets and put on some short to medium term option trades, but I don't devote my full 8 hours a day to trading. I look forward to being able to do that again in the future though and I have every intention of doing so.

In the meantime, I am very busy with my revived 3D animation company. We bought RenderFriend server farm for other 3D animators to use on a lease basis. What I'm focusing on right now is the lessons learned from a book I just finished reading called "The Best Year Of Your Life" by Debbie Ford. It's actually my wife's book but I picked it up and started reading it too. There are no new life lessons to be learned here, but sometimes it's nice reading someone else's perspective on things we already understand. It gives us a a different slant on things sometimes. Making this year the best year of my life doesn't equate to finances necessarily, it's the steps involved in moving forward, being better, becoming better by taking an active role in the things that you do, not a passive role. Of course it's so much easier to take the passive role and let life happen to you. I've certainly done that.

But in rebuilding my company, the important thing is to take an active role DOING something every day. Make the day count. Put out the effort by making a new contact, enhancing your advertising, even take time out 3 to 4 times a week to exercise. I need to do that because what good is any future success if I can't enjoy it in a worn out body that I haven't taken care of? Taking active steps on your list to do something every day that moves you closer to your goal is what makes the difference. So, I'm keeping very busy with these things, even when I don't feel like doing them... I always feel better afterwards.
