Get up at 5 am and take 60 minutes to prepare your mind, body, emotions and spirit to be remarkable during the hours that follow. Being a superstar is not the domain of the gifted but the prepared.

Take some time to think about all of last year’s experiences, and more importantly, hold on to all the lessons you learned from those experiences. Understand that everything that occurred last year was simply a result. Don’t get caught up in labeling those results as good or bad – as successes or as failures.

Learn from any mistakes you made and make a commitment not to repeat them. Learn from your successes but don’t let yourself get too complacent or overconfident. The actions that made you successful last year may not be the same actions you need to take this year. Be open to new approaches.

It’s hard to plan for the future when things from the past are still pulling at you. If you’re starting off the new year with unfinished projects from last year, you need to clear those projects from your plate as soon as possible. By getting rid of the old, you make room for the new. 

Anything that is worth achieving is worth putting in writing. Make a list of the major goals that you’d like to achieve this year. Each of these goals should represent a significant milestone in the long term vision for your life. Once you have your goals in writing,put them in a place where you will see them everyday.

Exercise is not something you “have time for”. It is something you make time for. It is also the one thing that provides you with strength, energy, and vitality to be more effective in all the other areas of your life. Exercise is an investment in your health, your life, your longevity, and your productivity.

The people you know and work with have helped you get to where you are. To get to a new level, you will likely need to surround yourself with some new people. Make it a priority to cultivate new relationships with positive people both inside and outside of your industry.

Build new relationships. Successful people know the value of a good network. They spend years building and cultivating their network, and as a result, they are presented with fruitful opportunities, and better positioned to take advantage of them as they come.

Learn new skills. New goals require new actions, and new actions typically require new skills. Take a moment to identify some of the skills you would like to acquire this year, and begin looking for the people and resources that can help you acquire those skills.

Dissolve relationships that don't support your success. Understand that you become the average of the people you spend the most time with. If the attitudes, philosophies, and behaviours of the people around you are not aligned with those of the person you intend to become, you must begin dissolving those relationships.

Make balance a priority. If this next year is truly going to be your most successful year yet, then it must be successful in all the areas of your life. And remember that it’s not about the amount of time you give to each area, it’s about the quality of the time you give to each area.

As is true of all living things in the universe, they're either growing or they are dying. There is no stagnation. If you're not continuously learning and growing, you're falling behind. Creating a personal development plan means committing to nourishing your mind with new, empowering information on a consistent basis.

To ensure you make this year your best year is to hold yourself accountable.Lack of accountability is one of the single greatest reasons for failure. If no one is holding us accountable for the consistent implementation of new habits or behaviors, we are more likely to fall back into our old patterns. 

The secret to holding yourself accountable is to have a system. Without a system for tracking your daily and weekly activities, and then measuring those against the new standards you’ve set for yourself, failure is almost inevitable. What gets measured gets improved.

Start Taking Action. As you plan each day’s activities, ask yourself:  What one thing can I do today that will move me in the direction of at least one of my goals?  Taking small steps in the direction of your goals will result in huge gains over time.

When you make your New Year’s goals, be sure to be as specific as you can. That is one of the keys to your success.

Create a Breakthrough Goal for the Year. A well-formed goal is both powerful and measurable. Specifically, a goal must quantify something, and it must list a specific date for completion. Because a breakthrough goal has the power to transform your life, it also has the power to make this year your best year ever.

Don’t think about making the coming year your best year ever. Just do it. You might not even notice that it is your best year yet until the end of the year.

Take a minute to reflect on the past year for yourself. Then give it a bow of gratitude, and say goodbye.

Remember that the quality of your life is determined by the quality of your thoughts.

The project that most scares you is the project you need to do first.

Small daily improvements are the key to staggering long-term results.

Stop being busy being busy. This New Year, clean out the distractions from your work plus life and devote to a monomaniacal focus on the few things that matter.

In a world where technology is causing some of us to forget how to act human, become the politest person you know. Be Polite!

Remember that all great ideas were first ridiculed. Remember that critics are dreamers gone scared.

Every morning ask yourself: “How may I best serve the most people?” Every night ask yourself: “What 5 good things happened to me this day?”

Don’t waste your most valuable hours (the morning) doing low value work. Leave every project you touch at work better than you found it.

Your job is not just to work. Your job is to leave a trail of leaders behind you. A job is not “just a job” Every job is a gorgeous vehicle to express your gifts and talents – and to model exceptionalism for all around you.

Set 5 daily goals every morning. These small wins will lead to nearly 2000 little victories by the end of the year.

Remember the secret to happiness is doing work that matters and being an instrument of service.

Prepare for success. Find out what do you need to start doing, stop doing, do more of or do less of – in order to achieve these goals.

Commit yourself and get support. Find out WHO can support you and HOW and ask for that support.

The children don't wear their masks at home and in controlled surroundings.

Kids fiction is the truth inside the lie and the truth of this fiction is simple enough the magic exists.

You are dependent if you allow the weaknesses of other people to ruin your emotional life

I became famous so quickly and so young - it was daunting. I was immature and I used to say some really stupid things in interviews. I never smiled on stage so I looked really serious, but it was because I hated my teeth and was incredibly nervous.

What celebrities hope is that people identify not so much that they're particularly special or different, but they identify with them. We represent life in general, the guy who does whatever.

Morale and attitude are fundamentals to success.

We danced on the lip of the volcano, so to speak. We were young, too. And New York was still a big, open city where anything could happen and anyone could be star. Rents were cheap, creativity was encouraged, and bottle service was still 20 years away. That was the era the Club Kids came into.

I'm open to whatever is meant to be, it will be.

Globalisation makes it clear that social responsibility is required not only of governments, but of companies and individuals. All sources must interact in order to reach the MDGs.

Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.

Mother I wish you the best on your birthday No one has earned it like you. You provide the love that makes our dream of a happy home come true. Your family loves and reveres its Mom You enrich everything you come near Youre our rock our beacon and our pleasure and everything we all hold so dear.

I like individuality in fashion - it annoys me when celebrities put on a bodycon dress and a pair of high heels and suddenly they are 'style icons.'

Everybody's under God's planet, and God is the Almighty, the Beginning, the End, the Alpha, the Omega. He's Big Daddy. He gives out these little soldiers and sons and angels and saints to help everybody else get through to him. I'm not the 'Jesus-only or you're going to Hell' kind of guy.

Being Puerto Rican, born and raised on the streets of New York, you go, 'Wow, you're still friends with your ex, man? Really? That's weird.' I don't play that.

I guess I'm curious about how people process grief and how they process loss. And I'm also interested in the ways in which an event can have long-reaching consequences and a life over the course of years.

Cruelty is a tyrant thats always attended with fear.
