Guest post by: Harriette Blye

Article Overview: A New year can be a new beginning. Many people want a fresh start. At the beginning of each year some of us make resolutions to change our lives in many ways. If this is true for you, try a new spin on getting what you want this year. Let's look at getting what YOU want the way 3% of the successful world population does it.

New Years Resolution, Do Not Make One This Year?

Are you one of the millions of individuals who made New Years Resolutions again this year? Were you successful last year with your resolutions? 97% of the world population failed with their resolutions. Sadly, they did not get what they wanted.

If this is true for you, try a new spin on getting what you want this year.

Let's look at getting what YOU want the way 3% of the successful world population does it.

First, let us understand resolutions, and what they are?

I found many definitions for resolutions in the dictionary. This one is in line with our discussion: it is something settled or resolved; the outcome of decision-making.

When you make a New Years resolution you resolve or make a decision to make a change in your life. This is done passively with your mind. However, this is the first step to getting what you want. There is more to be done by you.

This is what 3% of the population will do. They make a revolution.

What is the definition of revolution: it is a drastic and far-reaching change in ways of thinking and behaving.

Three percent of the population make a RESOLUTION mentally but, move quickly toward R-E-V-O-L-U-T-I-O-N and take action to get what they want.

A simple example is this: If you want a cup of hot tea, first you think about it by resolving to get it. You take action by boiling water, gathering the tea, sugar, cream or lemon to complete the process. You now have what you wanted, a wonderful cup of hot tea.

You thought about how satisfying the hot cup of tea would be and you wanted it, more importantly, you took action to get what you wanted. In this case it was a cup of hot tea.

If you dearly want to have change in your life, make a REVOLUTION!

Become a three percent individual get what you want in life.

Honor yourself!

Re: New Year Resolutions... - My New Years Resolution is to be earning $500+ with my online business. This includes any freelance work that I do. I'm about half-way there now. Another Resolution is to look into selling more on eBay and maybe finding a reputable dropshipper that offers competitive pricing on high-demand items. I like eBay and the opportunity that it provides. I've mainly been selling personal items, but I'd like to start tapping into a larger market and making some significant income on eBay.

And when you're selling items on eBay from a reputable dropshipper... do you think it's still important to pick a product you're passionate about (like what an entrepreneur would normally do when starting a business)? Or is it just about moving a popular item for profit on eBay?

I would say yes, pick products that you have an interest in. That's the best option if you're going to like what you do. Hopefully you can find a balance between products you're interested in and products that are in high demand.
Re: Quote of the Day - "The only people witho - Thanks for sharing this Evan, there are some very powerful quotes in there, I particularly like this one:- You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully. regards, Mal.
