Folks not in our industry may not understand how hard you work!  So, whether you are selling dance classes, dance shoes, costumes, dancewear or provide any other service to the dance community you understand the dedication, long hours and passion it takes to succeed! With a New Year upon us it is time to wipe the slate clean and start something new and exciting.

Here is an idea to get your New Year off to an amazing start! Check out the below life statements that are part of the optimist creed that I have used for this article. Make reading this creed a daily ritual for yourself for the rest of the year.  And remember a big part of the key to your success is your view on the world and yourself. Print out the list if you like and share it with your team. I know that I will read it everyday becuase it works!

Make a Promise to Yourself…

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel that there is something important in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.

To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.

To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear; and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words but in great deeds.

To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

Now let me ask you. don’t you feel better just reading that?

If you have not had a chance to read the book "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne I highly recommend that you do! I also recommend that you read "Think and Grow Rich!" by Napoleon Hill (It's not just about making more money!) One of the key factors that these books preach is that thoughts become things. Now we know that it certainly takes more than just thinking but if your thoughts aren't right everything becomes just a little bit harder... So think good ones!!!

Here’s to your success in this New Year.

Our wish for you is that everything you hope for, dream of and pray for comes true this year!
