Ten ways to make this your best year ever. 

The beginning of a new year offers a great opportunity for a fresh start, but it doesn't have to be New Year's Day or even the month of January to make resolutions and set goals for your career or for your life. Any time of the year offers a great opportunity for a fresh start, to make the most of the next 12 months, consider these 10 ways to make it a year to remember.
一年之初为新的开始提供了一个很好的机会，但它不必是元旦那天，甚至不必是一月份，你可以在任何时间为你的事业或生活做出决定和设定目标。一年中的任何时候都为新的开始提供了一个很好的机会，为了充分利用接下来的12个月，考虑一下这10种方法，让今年成为难忘的一年。

#1 Make up your mind.
A successful life or creative career takes more than talent and tactics, it also requires knowing what you want, combined with a positive mental attitude. So take time now to determine what you plan to accomplish this year, and then vow to keep your expectations upbeat and your optimism riding high.
下定决心。
成功的人生或创造性的职业需要的不仅仅是天赋和策略，还需要知道你想要什么，以及积极的心态。所以现在花点时间，确定你今年的目标是什么，然后下定决心，要保持乐观的期望和情绪。

#2 Make it easy
One of my favorite quotes is, any fool can make something complicated, it takes a real genius to make it simple. Don't overburden yourself with a complex plan, pick a couple of key areas and focus relentlessly on them, keep things simple, also make it easy for other people to figure out who you are and what you do, to place an order, to get in touch with you, there is beauty in clarity.
把事情变得简单。
我最喜欢的一句话是，任何傻瓜都能使事情变得复杂，真正的天才才能使事情变得简单。不要疲于制定复杂的计划，选择几个关键的领域，并坚持不懈地专注于它们，让事情变得简单，也让别人一下子就知道你是谁，你是做什么的，如何跟你下订单，如何联系你等等，简单明了是一种美。

#3 Make a list
To promote yourself and expand your career, you must connect with people, and follow up with them repeatedly, having a system helps, it doesn't matter if you use contact management software, index cards, or a spiral notebook you bought from the dollar store. What's most important is that you have some way of recording names addresses phone numbers etc, and a plan for connecting with the people on your lists who matter.
列清单。
为了提升你自己，扩大你的事业，你必须与人联系，并反复跟进他们，搭建一个系统会很有帮助，无论你是使用联系人软件，索引卡，还是从美元商店买来的螺旋形笔记本，这都无关紧要。最重要的是，你有一些记录姓名、地址、电话号码等的方法，还有一个计划，联系重要人物。
