I love New Year’s! I despise parties and bars and I am usually asleep by midnight, but I love starting fresh with a new year full of possibilities.
Like everyone else, I love to make a list of wishes and desires for the new year, but I think it is even more important to look back at the current year and take a little inventory. This is the perfect way to set yourself up for sparkly success in 2012!
So get your journal out, find a napkin to write on, or answer all these questions on a huge sheet of poster board…Whatever you do, write it down!!
1. What accomplishments am I proud of from 2011?
2. What brave chances did I take?
3. When did I impress myself?
4. What challenges did I overcome?
5. Which relationships did I strengthen?
6. What did I create?
7. How did I nurture my relationship with my body?
8. What setbacks did I greet with grace and courage?
9. What were some fun ways I pampered myself?
10. What promises did I keep with myself and others?
I just sat down and did this for myself, and I feel like a gazillion bucks now. I had an amazing year and it felt so good to take a few moments to honor it.
Now HELLO 2012…I’m gonna kick some ass!!!
