After all the things I have shared with you this year on what is
needed to feel good about yourself,
your potential, and your chances
of realizing your desires, here is a quick list to review your
progress. Remember, you are a success no matter what. The fact that
you are checking off your accomplishments indicates that you are
ready to climb the next peak.
During this year, through other articles, I shared with you on
where to find the light switch and how to turn on it’s light,
however, you took the time to find and apply. Take a bow for all
that you have accomplished and not for what remains. Do evaluate
whether you really gave it your full strength though, that is where
the guilt appears and will hold you back in 2006.
Here is a quick list of all the secrets to success that I've
shared with all my avid followers this year.

egomania.

the universal law and it’s something you have to help create.
8. Everyone has strengths. They need to be found and maximized.
