We’re in the dawn of a new year, yet the end of the present year is frantic for most of us. In my case, it’s all about wrapping up all those loose ends which gets pretty frustrating for me at times. I prefer tranquility, eating a bowl of warm soup, watching the snow fall, and just enjoying experience the quiet beauty of the seasons. However, at the end of the year I am not only busy wrapping presents, but also equally busy in wrapping up all those odds and end tasks that seem to be left undone. Whether it’s a work project, or a medical appointment, it’s just about the task of wrapping it all up.
And, at the end of each year, I’m all about reflection. This year, I will ask myself what actually did 2010 bring? Did it bring better health? Did it bring richer opportunities? Did it bring added joy? Did it have more challenges, demands and responsibilities? Was I able to create the life I wanted? Was I able to help others through Red Hot Mamas? What can I do differently in the New Year? And, as I embark on answering these poignant questions, I’ll attempt to look at my life again in view of the New Year ahead to determine what changes need to be made. I do have extreme gratitude that there are powerful choices out there that I still can make to create a better life for me and for the lives of others.
In this busy holiday season, I strongly encourage you to take time out for yourself. The cooking and cleaning can all wait. Wrap up the New Year and put a plan together for yourself, a “to do list” on how to stay healthy, happy, and develop a strategy for yourself which can help you create the life you want.
I wish you all the best in 2011!
