New Year, Same Me.

It’s time to switch out the calendars, AGAIN! Get use to the idea of changing the 8’s to 9’s and doing all of the ritualistic stuff to set the tone for another 365 days . I know ya’ll had your greens and black-eyed peas 🙂 It is so bizarre that each year we strive to make the same changes. Soon as Christmas is over, now everyone wants new friends, slimmer bodies and passport stamps. It’s as if we believe the clock striking 12:00 is magic fairy dust. I feel that this evolution should be a constant cycle. Don’t wait all year to start fresh. Everyday should be a journey towards peeled layers. We don’t wait all year to take the trash out. Do we? I hope not.

Let’s get in the habit of mind security. Soon as we think something acknowledge it with action, big or small. Big as actually jumping out of a plane or small as creating ‘sticky note goals’ of things you want to achieve or overcome by a certain time. No matter what it is you want to do or how you want to change, just know you can do it and you don’t have to always “wait until the New Year” to start. You’re actually doing yourself a great disservice to wait on anything.

Think and nurture the positive. Take action on any of your goals based on your CANs. Despite whatever obstacles, what CAN you do to work towards the life favorable to you? If you absolutely hate your job, start applying to new jobs? However, while you’re at work jot down a plan for yourself. Figure out what your interests are and what makes you feel your best. This is you taking immediate control. Instead of suffering until the New Year then becoming disappointed that by February you don’t have a whole new life. Well then dearheart you’ve subconsciously reset a cycle you swore you were leaving behind.

I challenge you to strive to be unbroken, unbothered and conquer everyday. You may not feel triumphant all day everyday but everyday can be a good day. SOON as the enemy arises, STOP and seek good things to focus on for at least 15 minutes. Guard your thoughts. Watch what you think…about yourself. Don’t season life with nasty thoughts. What you think will form, what forms will materialize and what materializes is your life.

Everyday make it your business to guard your mind, protect your thoughts and create your life.
