		<description>This is a really great article for seeing 2010 off with a bang. Each one of these topic sentences could be a post within itself and expanded upon for more detail, which would be a good idea.

I particularly like #7, #8 and #54. I&#039;m going to get started right away on those and work through the rest of the topics throughout the year. Small steps, right? :-)

Thanks for the nudge,
Karen</description>

		<description>@Gordie: Thanks for your comment. Although it&#039;s good to start doing what&#039;s on the list at the start of the year, it&#039;s also important to bear them in mind throughout the year.

@Steven Handel: I agree it&#039;s good to have depth in an article, but sometimes we need a bit of variety. :)

@Earl: I agree that sometimes small things can make significant impact in One&#039;s life! Oh... And I love comedies too. I love a good laugh. That&#039;s one of my favorite ways to de-stress. :)

@Steven Aitchison: I&#039;m glad you like this post, Steven.

@Jamie: It is indeed a nice way to start the new year. I&#039;ve already done some on the list and feeling all good. It makes me feel like this is gonna be a great year. It&#039;s amazing how these seemingly unimportant things can get you all pumped up. Congrats on starting your own business! I&#039;m always excited for someone who takes the plunge. All the best!

@Lance: Awesome! Actually I&#039;ve done a guest post on mind clearing at AlexShalman.com. You may check it out if you want.

		<description>Mark,
This is a great list to focus on!  In fact, this past weekend, we spent some time throwing out things that were just taking up space.  The less-cluttered feel is a good one.  And that also reminds me that, as much as I physically removed clutter - it is also good to mentally do that too.  To clear my mind of thoughts that are just taking up space, so that I can truly focus on what matters.

		<description>Great tips. Nice way to start the new year. I am going to put those into action or at least try.  I am starting a consultancy business I am kind of excited about. So this is a great way to start fresh and believing in yourself is key to success. If you don&#039;t believe in yourself than no one else will. Great talking to you yesterday.

		<description>It is such seemingly small steps or changes in behavior as these that can play a major role in creating a fresh and more positive perspective on life. I&#039;m a big believer in the power of comedy so I was glad to see #19 on the list!
