New Year's Resolution #1 - Get In Shape

calculator and will help you monitor your intake.
- Ask Dr. Andrew Weil: brought to you by Dr. Weil

New Year's Resolution #2 - Get Organized
Being organized means more than filing papers, using a daily list and knowing what time to be where. It's a habit, much the same as any other skill you master. Tips from this site will help you organize your home office, get ahead, take control of projects and maintain balance in your life.
New Year's Resolution #3 - Financial Plans & Strategy
How do you invest to meet your goals? There are no one-size-fits-all investments. Of course, the best investment you can make (and enjoy) is in your home. Today's interest rates are the lowest in 30 years, there are extra Tax benefits, homes are affordable, the property taxes are moderate, the cost of living is competitive, and the quality of life is excellent!
Create a Financial Plan. A personal financial plan provides strategies for dealing with periods of personal hardship and helps develop a prudent economic agenda for you and/or your family.
