Bring on the New Year! We are ready to conquer again.
It is official, the crazy year of 2020 has come to an end… now what? Well first let’s take a second to reflect on the past 365 days… While the first two months of the year might have seemed “normal”, nobody could have predicted what the next ten months would bring us. 2020 has brought everyone around the world an abundance of anxiety, stress, uncertainty, anger, confusion, and a flat-out weird feeling to say the least. But while it seemed like the world was crashing down around us, we also must acknowledge all of the amazing and beautiful lessons and moments that 2020 gifted us with.
With all of the sudden change going around us, we all learned to become extremely adaptable to the constantly changing environment. But it was in those moments of change and unpredictability that we all learned to appreciate the little things in our lives and how to truly face fear head on one day at a time.
But here we are at the start of a fresh new year, the beginning of a new journey, what are we going to do to make this year the best year of our lives? With all the tragedy of 2020 we are all truly blessed to have made it to see Jan 1st, 2021 because nobody is ever promised another day. But let’s be honest with ourselves… just because the calendar is changing are you going to change too? What makes December 31st any different than January 1st… mindset.
We have to make a conscious decision every single day to make ourselves better than the last. Growth and success are not fate, yet a choice that you make to work hard at your goals daily.
Talk is cheap. It almost seems like a society norm to create New Years Resolutions year after year but why is it that less than 8 percent actually follow through with their goals that they set to better themselves? I believe that at the end of the day it comes down to accountability and convenience.
There are a million excuses that we can tell ourselves on why not, but we only need one good reason to do it. Coming up with goals are easy “I want to eat better” or “I am going to go to the gym 4 days a week” but what is the point of these “goals” if they only last a week or two?
We need to dig deep within ourselves to find the real reason for goal setting, the why. In my opinion, your reason why is the most important part of setting these goals. Is there something that you what to subconsciously change about yourself or simply strive for something new or better. You need to find the drive and passion behind goals or dreams to dig for that motivation. Because at the end of the day nobody will do it for you, it must come from within and the passion that you have to accomplish your goals. Everyday is a gift from God and it is up to you what you do with the 24 hours of the day, and you will never know when your time is up. If not today, then when?
But now 2021 is here it is up to us to look at today, tomorrow, next week, or 6 months and think where do we want to be and how are we going to get there. It is up to YOU to make that decision every day. But we must remember success doesn’t come overnight or without consistent failure and even “life getting in the way” but we can take what we learned in 2020 and the years prior to know that we have become stronger and resilient to not just face life, but to dominate it.
Thank you 2020 for all the memories and lessons. Porradaaaaaa 2021!
