In the final hours of 2009, many people all over the world will look back on their year and look to the coming year with hope for improvement. It's a beautiful act of reflection and reaffirmation towards our goals and dreams. Now is always the best time to begin something new - not the "now" of the New Year's occasion, but right Now.And the next Now. And the Now after that.
We live in the Now, and Now presents us with our only time to influence both past and future: our past by giving us memories worth savoring, and our future by contributing to our next Now: our next chance to choose and act well.
How was your year? Unfortunately, some people can only look back on their year as if it were any other: the repetition of mundane routines day in and out. In my opinion, that's just living the same year over and over again. It's like pacing in place while we wait to die, and still, the circumstances of our lives give us powerful reasons to organize our lifestyles in this fashion.
Unless you take charge of it - right NOW.
The process is twofold: choose, and act. Taking charge, for most people, is only the choosing. Let's make this year one where we take massive action for change. Don't let your doubts stop you. Decide!
"The only limits to the possibilities of your life tomorrow are the buts you use today." ~Les Brown
In 2010, be less of a 'but-head'. It's time to kick your 'but'.
I want this to be a big year, and I'm shooting for some pretty ambitious targets. (Check out my list of goals.)
What will you accomplish in 2010? Set your sights now. Choose now, and then take consistent action throughout the year.
See you on the other side!
