Easy ResolutionsWritten by Rinatta Paries
New Year's Eve is traditional time to make resolutions for upcoming year. Most resolutions are about something we really, really want. Even if you are not type who makes New Year's resolutions, notice that somewhere, quietly, in back of your mind, you are probably making one anyway.The problem with resolutions, though, is that most people never keep theirs. And it's no surprise why. Most of us resolve for big things -- lose weight, get into a relationship, improve a relationship, get a better job, improve business, get healthy, save money, etc. These are not easy things, and cannot be accomplished simply because we resolve to accomplish them. It's not that big things can't be accomplished. It's just that it takes something, and often lots of something, to move us in direction of accomplishing something big. This New Year's Eve, try something different. I'm not guaranteeing this will work for everyone, but it may be an interesting and useful experiment. It has to be easier than resolving to do some huge thing you will probably give up a few days or weeks after start of year. Instead of resolving to achieve, become, or get something, resolve to add a positive state of being to your life. For example, resolve to add state of joy for year 2003. Or resolve to add state of laughter for 2003. Or, resolve to add state of pleasure, or creativity, or aliveness, or surrender, or compassion, or love. This way your focus will not be on striving for a goal. It will be on asking yourself what needs to be adjusted, or shifted, in order to create state you've resolved to add. You may find this much easier than other resolutions you have made. It is easier to answer question, "What will help me feel happy or creative right now?" instead of answering question, "What will help me lose weight right now?" The first question definitely has an answer with fairly easy, immediate actions that you are likely to be willing to take. The second question also has an answer with fairly easy steps, but you are not as likely to be willing to take them.

*How often did you receive emails like this one I put in this report below?:Abidjan`s high offecials are seeking to smuggle US $22.500.000.00 from Coast d`Ivory to Europe. The money belongs to The Coast D`Ivory`s Committee for Rehabilitation and Construction(Co^te D`Ivoire Societe Ivoiriene de Raffinage-S.I.R-) in Abidjan. The Refinery had a fire disaster October last year. A mandated high official contacted some individuals in Europe a week before recent disturbance, searching for acceptance to above 30% of money transaction when successfully transfered to an indvidual account in Europe. The high official stated that money was realised from over inflated contracts which contract awarding committe awarded to some foreign contractors for rehabilitation and reconstruction of refinery and network pipeline. He said his group will use money for personal purposes,declaring that contracts was awarded to contractors to tune of US$42,Million, but his group used it`s positions and over invoiced amount to tune of US $62.5 Million. "Now that project has been concluded and contractors are coming for their payments" he said, "we now required a reliable and trustworthily person, whom will be used as a sub-contractor and claim over invoiced amount of US $22.5 Million, which has also been approved for payment and use his foreign account to transfer this fund from paying bank in Abidjan". The high official said to one of contacted indviduals that he and his colleagues have mapped out all necessary modalities towards claim of this fund, but he added "due to our position we do not want to be noticed". A service of an attorney , he suggested to contacted resources, "will be used to secure registration certificate as your sister`s company in Abidjan, to enable us reflect your name as one of contractors, for board to raise a payment draft covering fund in your favour".
