Where were you at 12:01am on January 1st and what were you thinking ?
As 2011 came in, I was standing in an eco lounge bar in Perth with a few of my best friends, a handful of jokes and a big smile. In between sets of dancing to a live band, I took a moment to reflect on the past year, the decisions I had made, my experiences and what I had accomplished.
As always, I was grateful for all past opportunities and was thinking about what I wished to achieve in the future. As I turned around, I overheard someone say “All we have in life is choice” and I thought ‘they are absolutely right!!’ We may not be able to control everything in life, in fact we simply shouldn’t try. However what we can control are our CHOICES !
If we choose to wake happy each day, roll out of bed with an early morning grin, dance as we’re getting dressed, treat others well, treat ourselves well, strive for continuous improvement, enjoy the little moments and take time to relax ... I bet there will always be hot water in the shower, we’ll run early to work, people will be nice, success will come easily, we’ll get the green lights and it will stop raining just for the 5 minutes we are walking down the path !
My New Years gift to you this year is a CHALLENGE to choose and acquire those things that make you truly happy !! Try this:
C – Create a collage or list to look at every day of at least 3 things you desire
H – Help yourself by allowing change into your life
O – Open your mind to new possibilities
I – Inherit only the best qualities for yourself
C – Clear your mind of all negativity
E – Experience new and wonderful things in 2011 !
**This year give yourself the freedom to choose the things you want and the determination to acquire them**
So... How do YOU spell CHOICE !? J
Committed to your success !
