5 New Years Resolutions for Ambitious Women

Life coach Ann Daly PhD offers advice to ambitious women who want to live large in 2009. Excerpted from Dr. Daly'ss new ebook, A Year of Clarity: The Monthly Guide for Women. What are the best New Year'ss resolutions for ambitious women

Women are hungry for a life of focus, meaning, and accomplishment, explains life coach Ann Daly, PhD. In order to commit to that life, women need to begin by getting clear about what they want. They need to unclutter their minds and hearts.

In her new e-book, A Year of Clarity: The Monthly Guide for Women ($16.95, Wollemi Pine Press), Dr. Daly shows women how to claim and achieve their ambition, whether it'ss for the C-suite, work-life balance, or a creative calling.

What is the best way to begin a year of clarity Dr. Daly suggests these New Year'ss resolutions:

1. Tame the female ego -- If men feel the need to be in control, women feel the need to please. Ask yourself: Am I doing this because I want to do the right thing, or because I'sm afraid to be seen as selfish, bitchy, rude

2. Just say No! -- Every time you begrudgingly reply Yes to someone else'ss priorities, you say No to your own.

3. Add Mozart to the mix -- This measured, buoyant music is an immediate antidote to the manic moment. You'sll find yourself able to breathe, relax, and focus.

4. Don'st say should -- Eliminate the word from your vocabulary. Find alternatives such as want that declare your power and responsibility to make choices.

5. Stop Multitasking -- It'ss not a productivity tool. It'ss an excuse for perpetual distraction. Instead, plan your time well enough to focus on one task--or person--at a time.
