We’re on the cusp!
It’s time for me (and maybe you?) to reflect on “what’s been” and “what can be.” Life is rather like an old-fashioned camera. We can choose to focus on what is important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives. And, if things didn’t work out quite like we wanted, take another shot!
I’ve often thought of the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day as an opportunity to reflect back as well as refocus ahead to what the coming year could be if I so choose!
Looking ahead to 2022, I like what Jim Rohn had said about not wishing it was easier, but wishing I was better; not wishing for less problems, but wishing for more skills; and not wishing for less challenges, but wishing for more wisdom.
We can choose our attitude for this coming year by consciously focusing on those attributes we wish to embody and to experience. How about trying the old “alphabet list” idea? You know, choose qualities for each letter. For example…
- A= adaptable, alert, appreciative…
- B= balanced, blessed, brave…
- C= capable, cooperative, creative…
- you get the idea!
I admit some of those 26 letters were more challenging than others for me, but I did find at least 3 for each one over a bit of time! I bet you can too!
