2020 was a game changing challenge!
Each life challenge brings with it the opportunity
for growth, improvement, awareness and wisdom.
Embrace the insights, and share the humor. Look for it. It is there! Underneath all the seriousness and complaining! Watch funny movies. Lift your spirits and lighten up by laughing! Invite your family, friends and loved ones to join you in a
Sharing Circle – a Master Mind group but with a focus on
learning from the past and creating more effective ways
to cope and shift into these new challenges of the pandemic.
You can share by zoom, face talk, etc. until you can be together again in person. Talk about what you each experienced. Focus on your insights. Also talk about what went wrong and get feedback on how to turn that into a success. Share your future plans with each other and get positive encouragement in how to fulfill your dreams and goals. Problem solve any issues that did not work last year. Be creative and discuss innovative solutions to turn those failures into workable results. Meet regularly to be a support group for each other to create a successful new year regardless of the pandemic!
Our method of achieving our goals and realizing our dreams will look different this year. The familiar paths we took to achieve our past results have shifted. We are being required to open our mind, get out of our habits, be curious and creative, explore new paths and above all, be flexible. Our society is in chaos and much that was familiar has changed. Lingering in the fantasy that things will return to the way they were will be an exercise in futility, and a waste of time.
As we leave our old, narrow paths
we must be curious, flexible, creative and innovative,
building bigger boulevards to achieve success
in this decade of change
Celebrate that you survived! Be grateful for your transformation. Express appreciation for what you have, learned and shared. Create a special ceremony, time together, activity and food. If you don’t have any traditions, create some new ones!
Have a Happy, Healthy, Successful New Year!!
