<\/p>\n

As you arrive at home to see the family \u2013 eager to fill your belly with Turkey, cranberries and maybe a bit too much wine \u2013 it\u2019s important to remember the people who fill your life.<\/p>\n

But do you know what\u2019s even more<\/em> important? \u2026To remember yourself.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And, to be a little selfish.<\/strong><\/p>\n

See, rarely, in the year do we have such an extended period of time where it is totally acceptable to just sit on the couch and reflect while the football game hums and fire crackles. Am I happy with my career path? Am I meeting my expectations? Am I truly happy?<\/em><\/p>\n

Here are 10 questions you can ask yourself to ensure the end of 2013 is as productive – and fulfilling – as possible. Consider it a resolutions thing come early.<\/p>\n

10 Questions You Can Ask Yourself this Thanksgiving<\/h2>\n

My suggestion:<\/strong> Grab a pen and paper or your grandma’s shiny new iPad and do some serious thinking. Jot down an answer and a short game plan for each item here. Then, as you head home after vacation, review your answers once more.<\/p>\n

Oh yeah, and there’s a hidden message here…can you find it? If so, let me know in the comments.<\/p>\n

Am I Making Enough Money?<\/h2>\n

Sadly, money solves most problems in life. So, let’s start with money.<\/p>\n

Whether we admit it or not we could all use a touch more money. The good news is there\u2019s plenty of it to be had, you just might not be asking<\/strong> for it. If you\u2019re doing a lot of work at your job, take this time to reflect on how you can ask for a raise. You need is a good write-up of your accomplishments, some decent timing, and a bit of boldness.<\/strong> The annoying thing is, as we work day and day out at the cubicle, in the assembly line, or in and out of countless hotels, our boldness kind of dulls. We forget to ask. Try to change this.<\/p>\n

Or, maybe your line of work doesn\u2019t allow a raise \u2013 sometimes the money just isn\u2019t there. If that\u2019s the case, it\u2019s your job to look for alternative streams of income.<\/strong> See if your friends are starting up a business you can invest in, shoot some emails around, and get involved. Or, try the online world. Making a living from home \u2013 on the computer \u2013 isn\u2019t as far-fetched or phony as it might seem anymore. You\u2019ll need a basic website and a good idea.<\/p>\n

Am I Happy with My Network?<\/h2>\n

If is short \u2013 expand<\/strong> your network.<\/p>\n

And if someone hasn\u2019t told you this already, your network is about 14,000 times more valuable than your current salary because your network helps you find new opportunities. The problem is, as we get older, the whole networking thing becomes like a game of freaking musical chairs; everyone finds a seat and the music stops playing.<\/p>\n

“Networking should NOT feel like musical chairs (learn why at PickTheBrain.com)” Tweet this quote<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n

If you are in the boat of not<\/strong> having a big enough network, there\u2019s good news and bad news. The bad news is most people seem to say \u201cno\u201d to you at first. The good news is you can find people in your industry, your niche, if you just look in the right places. My recommendation \u2013 and what\u2019s brought me a good deal of opportunities \u2013 is to dive head first into an online venture \u2013 even if you don\u2019t know a thing about technology. Just putting yourself out there is bound<\/strong> to draw in a few connections.<\/p>\n

Do I Travel Enough?<\/h2>\n

Or, are you stuck in a dark little nook on the nth floor some mega-complex called \u201cInitech\u201d? Think about it? How old are you?<\/strong> It\u2019s not getting any easier to travel as you get older \u2013 unless of course you\u2019re really banking it and saving up.<\/p>\n

Good thing there\u2019s the Nerd Fitness Epic Quest of Awesome<\/a>. At least for me, this guide has inspired me to take advantage of things like frequent flier miles so I can get to Japan before I turn 30. Steve Kamb, the founder of this guide, has inspired thousands to get up and go \u2013 and at the very least watch him working out<\/strong> across the globe.<\/p>\n

Do you know how it all starts? You need a mission \u2013 and some means of documenting it. Nobody wants to travel alone; but sometimes we\u2019re all we\u2019ve got. So bring your camera, meet someone special, and put it all down on your blog<\/strong> when you finally make full circle.<\/p>\n

Do I Spend Enough Time with Family?<\/h2>\n

Your family actually does make your life worth living \u2013 they\u2019re the people you want to give your entire being to (as opposed to your boss).<\/p>\n

“More work today means more family time later – if your work can operate on its own.” Tweet this quote<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n

Yet, too many times we can\u2019t<\/strong> find the time for them. In my case, I\u2019ve been cooped up in NYC for three years now while my small family enjoys life back home. Each time I come back home they have new stories and inside jokes to make me feel like a real outsider.<\/strong> After a couple bottles of wine, we\u2019re back on the same page, but it\u2019s just a gap I wish I could keep sealed up.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you feel a gap between your family members, there are ways to seal it too. Look for alternative mediums of communication \u2013 like Skype and Kik message, or, create YouTube videos of your life and times and share them privately or publicly. In the golden age of tech, there\u2019s no excuse<\/strong> to stay disconnected, and it will make life more fulfilling.<\/p>\n

Where Do I Want to Be in One Year?<\/h2>\n

Time for the big Kahuna.<\/p>\n

A year zips by fast; but it is in your control. Who<\/strong> do you want to meet? Where<\/strong> do you see yourself? Bad news again is change is not easy \u2013 but the good news is it\u2019s totally up to you. If you want to be in a new city, for example, start researching it now and making connections wherever possible. Plan a visit. For Pete’s sake, see how much an apartment goes for.<\/p>\n

“This Thanksgiving, I\u2019ll decide where I want to be in 1 year AND write the gameplan to get there” Tweet this quote<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n

Personally \u2013 and I know this is a bit of a weird example \u2013 but I reference each year mark by an event in my town, the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament. Each year, as I sit sipping an overpriced and over-branded drink to the sunset and sounds of tennis grunts \u2013 I ask myself if it\u2019s been a good year. Usually, I\u2019m able to list a few major achievements that sprung up in the long hours and late nights of the years part, and if I can\u2019t, the tennis sure is good.<\/p>\n

Am I Learning Every Day?<\/h2>\n

Yeah, you are? Tell me what you learned yesterday in the comments, right now.<\/strong> I\u2019ll respond with something I learned too (and try to mix it up \u2013 I\u2019m expecting quite a few comments here).<\/p>\n

Get this \u2013 most of us are<\/strong> <\/em>experts; we\u2019ve cornered our jobs so tightly we could do it in our sleep \u2013 and sometimes do. You don\u2019t need to become more of an expert in your job but instead you need to do 1 of 2 things:<\/p>\n

a.<\/strong> Share it with an audience \u2013 unless you\u2019re in event management, your audience exists online. Start up a simple website or blog on your expertise then share it like madness. Need some quick outlets to find readers? LinkedIn Groups like Bloggers Helping Bloggers<\/a>, WordPress Communities<\/a>, and the Blogging Topic<\/a> on Twitter are all great places to find others like you and folks further along who can help out.<\/p>\n

b.<\/strong> Expand your knowledge into a new niche \u2013 For those of you who read PickTheBrain and are already involved in online niches, sharing the things you love doing in real life, try guest posting for a new site. In my case, I\u2019m not a self-improvement writer (I actually blog a lot about blogging) but writing for PickTheBrain has helped me meet tons of cool people who have changed my life in a short amount of time.<\/p>\n

Do I Write Anymore?<\/h2>\n

Yes, I know you have<\/em> written, maybe even more than me, and probably enjoyed it. But is your writing improving?<\/em><\/p>\n

In an era where it\u2019s so easy to share your best writing with the world \u2013 and persuade people to listen \u2013 you really can\u2019t afford to not be heard. Don\u2019t let the gears get rusty; you\u2019ll end up spending your mornings reading other people\u2019s work instead of loving life as those people read your work!<\/p>\n

“Look out World \u2013 my writing is making a reappearance (with some help from @pickthebrain)” Tweet this quote<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n

Think about it \u2013 your life is important, it\u2019s full of stories \u2013 you just need a good medium for sharing them and practicing new techniques. Need some starting points to get back into writing? No problemo \u2013try out the inspiring Writer\u2019s Write Google Plus page by Amanda Patterson<\/a> or friend of mine Demian Farnworth\u2019s Blog called the CopyBot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Am I Taking Advantage of The Resources of 2013?<\/h2>\n

Not just Facebook \u2013 I mean global publishing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Highspeed internet, outsourcing, eBook publishing, and of course a bit of blogging. If you\u2019ve made it all the way down here \u2013 congratulations<\/strong> \u2013 I have but one message for you as this post finally winds to an end: there\u2019s no better time to get involved in global publishing than right now.<\/strong> All you need is a laptop, a couple hours each day and a small sliver of persistence.<\/p>\n

Believe me, rejection hits hard; I was rejected from writing on several sites including this one when I started out! But it was OKAY \u2013 I had a lot to learn and there were smaller hubs were I did great. Seriously, the web wants you; don\u2019t say no.<\/p>\n

Do I Look Forward to Each Day, or Just the Weekends?<\/h2>\n

Do you count down<\/strong> the days to Friday come Tuesday?<\/p>\n

If so, that\u2019s a problem. There\u2019s no reason to race through life; plenty of people are out on a beach or in charge of a job project they actually believe in during that Tuesday. While you\u2019re begging for Friday, you could be savoring a day that\u2019s in fact 1\/7th of your whole life.<\/p>\n

“1\/7th of your life is Tuesdays \u2013 make sure to enjoy each day (learn how at PickTheBrain.com)” Tweet this quote<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n

What Do I Have to Show for My Work and Am I Really Proud of it?<\/h2>\n

As the sun sets, do you look upon your empire with pride?<\/p>\n

There’s a little word many of us forget, and it’s at the core of what makes us happy<\/a>: ownership.<\/strong> What can we say we truly own? Material items fade, jobs change, relationships break. What do you really own? (for you philosophers this may be an ENTIRELY another discussion, that’s fine).<\/p>\n

What you really own are experiences<\/strong> – and moments where you change the world. Nobody <\/strong>can take those away. That said, we humans are pretty good at “bottling” things up and keeping them around forever, if you can find a way to keep your experiences safe – be it a photo album or some sort of online creation – you’ll be able to look back on them next time it’s raining and get that nice, warm feeling again.<\/p>\n

Over to You<\/h2>\n

What will you do this Thanksgiving from the couch? Will it make the last month of the year a little bit better? I hope so! Thank you SO much for reading – now tell us about it in the comments.<\/p>\n
