Look at what Santa Brought

As 2016 comes to a close we are all running around trying to get everything ready for the holidays.

I love sitting down on New Year’s day to reflect on what the previous year brought and what my plans are for the new year.

But Santa brought us all so many gifts throughout the year. They weren’t wrapped up in a bow but they are incredible. You may have missed them.

Opportunities

How many opportunities did you receive this year? A chance to do something different. Did you take the leap and jump, or were you left wondering? When opportunity knocks go for it!

Experiences

Oh we have had so very many of these. Good ones and bad ones. My dear father passed away this year which was quite an experience. Despite how painful and sad it was, it brought our entire family together which was and is amazing. To be surrounded by loved makes one’s heart happy. There is always a silver lining in every experience. We are not the same after these experiences, but we are stronger. My father was a great teacher of the power of love.

Love

Yes love does make the world go around. How often do we take our family and friends for granted? The ones that love us warts and all. Without them and without love what is the point of living? Show people how much you care. A great thing I just learned was to send your friends a minute long video message telling them how much you love and appreciate them. They will love it! And I appreciate and love all of you.

Growth

You truly are not the same as you were last year. Look how far you have come and give yourself a pat on the back. No more self-sabotaging and negative talk.  We are surrounded with books, courses, and resources which teach us new things and changes how we think. I am a book-a-holic. Anything I can get my hands on to make me a better person I devour.  Just walk into a book store and in the self-help section there are all kinds of amazing authors, Robin Sharma is one of my favorites as is Anthony Robbins. These books are gems waiting for you to explore them.

Thank you for following me this year. I plan on having the best 2017 as I am so excited to explore some new and exciting opportunities. Remember there are no mistakes just lessons!!

From my family to Yours, Happy Holidays
