Can you believe we are celebrating entering the year 2022? Who would have thought that our lives would have been profoundly impacted by a worldwide two-year pandemic, changing the trajectory of our everyday habits, hopes, dreams, and goals?
In saying “Happy New Year,” it has been observed that many are nervous to make any plans for the future. They aren’t too quick to create a vision board, and just want to “ease into the new year with caution.” Personally, these sentiments can be understood.
But there is still a part of me that is excited for my POTENTIAL to be unleashed into RESULTS. There is still hope that the best ME has not yet shown up, and having the opportunity to see another year brings hope and possibility. Hope. Possibility. Dreams. Vision.
If you took a moment to dream, what would you dream? What would you desire to accomplish? What impact would you want to make in the world?
Please be encouraged to embrace 2022 seeking to one-up yourself by being a better YOU. You are only in competition with yourself, and as long as you have breath in your body, you have purpose.
Imagine what joy and growth you may bring to your life by trying that new hobby, exercising for a healthier lifestyle, writing that book, changing that career, or just practicing to live with more gratitude, more patience, more prayer, more praise, more empathy… more LIFE for YOU. At the end of the day, it’s all about YOU versus You: staying the same means nothing has changed. And who wants to stay the same, never piquing the opportunities that lie ahead?
