Here we are again2016! Time do flies! January has already come to
an end. We are now in the beautiful month of February and valentines day is
alround the corner.
it feels unbelievable really that another year has come back
around so quickly…
I have been asking myself several questions such as what did I
achieve last year? Did I meet some of my goals? What are my objectives for this
year?
Have things cropped up that I never expected? hell yes! Can I
change the past? no. Can I embrace the present and have hope for the
future?….for sure.
I do advise my amazing readers out there,
if life throws lemon at you, make a lemonade out of it.
Life can be though at times. But like the saying goes, when the
going gets though, the though gets going.
Here are some of my few tips for you to meet your goals this here:
1. Focus is key- Distraction was something that has always plagued
me although I can be highly productive, I’m also skittish at times. So this
year I’m making it the year of ‘the one’. One vision, One moment, One hour,
One day at a time.
2. Excellence – There have been moments,
due to rushing/ lack of time and focus, I haven’t given as much as I’d have
liked to tasks, people, work & many other little things in my life. I find
that guilt racks me when I haven’t done my best, and I am a harsh critic.
However moving forward, being confident in the effort that I have made, will be
a key driver for challenging myself further.
3. Love without bars – limits,
preconceptions, rules and boundaries. I don’t mean this in a romantic sense
although it definitely applies in relationships. I mentioned recently that I
felt a ‘closing up’ within myself, a distrust and shying away from people and
interactions due to past hurts and pains, but in reality I realised that the
only person this hurt was me. The weight of suspicion is much heavier then
being the innocent and sometimes foolish open-armed person that I was. This
year I’ll be making more efforts to love endlessly.
I hope these tips were helpful!
Stay fabulous!
