2006 is a year of big opportunity and advancement if you are willing to work hard and push matters to a conclusion. This is a year of action, therefore good judgment, efficiency in business and confidence is essential. Avoid letting your emotions or sentiment gain an upper hand in your dealings, but face facts. You may have to let go of some things, but this may be good in the long run. Its also considered a harvest year. Seeds you planted eight years ago in 1998 that you have nurtured can come to fruition.

A new year always gives us that new surge of energy that makes us say "I'm going to make it happen this year!" More often than not, by March you're feeling behind schedule and it snowballs from there. The way to avoid the snowfall is to have a plan. It doesn't have to be a big plan, but if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Map out what you want to do for the year. Then break it down into three, six, nine or twelve month intervals. If you want to buy a house in September, what do you need to have accomplished by March? If you want a new job by March, what do you have to have accomplished by the end of January? Get the picture? The key is to work backwards.

For many 2005 was a great year. You became clearer on what you wanted and the foundation was laid for success. You took risks and achieved your goals. For many, new careers were formed. For those of you who took that leap you were pleasantly surprised. Things had a way of working out, bigger and better than you expected. Many of you laid the groundwork for things you wanted to manifest in 2006. Then, there were those of you who only thought about what you wanted to do, or came to the realization that what you were doing wasn't working. Lastly, some of you had an important door closed in your face. All this is good believe it or not, because it made you look at your life. You possibly made overdue changes and planned bigger and better dreams.

This year offers more than just promise or hope. This is the year you can become the person you were born to be. Be willing to step outside of your comfort zone and claim the magnificent Being that you are. If youre not sure where to start ask yourself the following question:

What is the highest good that my life is here to represent?

You can do this during meditation, while working out at the gym, driving, or before you go to bed at night. Asking this question opens you up to hear you Souls desire for your life. What will come is more than a job, or a career, but a mission to infuse into any and every thing that you do. It gives your life purpose and direction. Even if youre already in a career that seems satisfying, there is another level to take it to. A deeper level. A level that will make what you do more significant and fulfilling things for others and the planet overall. Its what you came to the planet to GIVE. We all have something to give. It may be as big as a cure for a disease, or as small as a smile to everyone you meet.

Make this a year that you go after your dreams, but make sure that your dreams contribute to your personal growth and the growth of others.
