Traditionally at some point this month there is a habit of setting new resolutions or goals for the coming year.  In many cases these can end up in the bin before the month is out.  Changing habits tends to require discipline and will power amongst a few other things. 

So let me suggest something a bit different.  By all means think about what you want to achieve this year and before you commence, have a right good chuck out.  Your wardrobe, desk, filing cabinets and garage are always easy places to start, you can move on to your mind later.  Even if you don’t normally set goals or you’re not sure what you want 2008 to be, have a real good throw out. 

For me nothing beats a good de-clutter to free up space for the new stuff to arrive.
