What Magazine Will Have Your Picture on the Cover in 2010?

December 27, 2009 · Leave a Comment

This year Ellen fulfilled a goal of getting on the cover of O Magazine.  Only one other person has shared the cover with Oprah.  It was an outrageous dream and goal for Ellen but she isn’t known for holding back when pursuing a goal.  She did what she had to do to make it happen and it happened – in a big way.

I’m thinking about my goals for 2010.  I’ve got some that seem like a stretch but nothing really outrageous. I’d like to be a little more out there.

Would you like to have your picture on a magazine in 2010?  Or maybe you want to have it on the back cover of a book you are writing?  Or maybe you would like to be on the front page of a newspaper.  I had a friend get a cover story on a major newspaper just last week – her first for that newspaper.

Be outrageous. Set a crazy goal for 2010.  Something bigger than losing ten pounds.  Something unthinkable and then commit to making it happen.
