I rank my days, every day from 2 to -2. I had a significant revelation this morning... If you have a minute, read to the end....I believe there may be some light shed. It's the closing of a significant chapter this year, a great chapter. And the next chapter is also going to be great! If I can offer any advice, don't rely on your memory. Your memory will offer a cloudy reality at best. Document to learn, to notice patterns, to be aware. Many of you will absolutely be shaking your head at this, and I actually understand that...this seems a bit much...right? Yet it's my process for growth and more awareness of myself. Here is a quick recap of my days: Days Ranked 2 - 77 - I only experienced 29 in 2023 Days Ranked 1 - 173 Days Ranked 0 - 83 Days Ranked (-1) - 21 Days Ranked (- 2) - 11 This has been by far one of the harder years I can recall. And I was expecting these numbers to be much different. I actually only had a few more 'hard' days ranking -1 and -2 than I did last year. Yet it felt much heavier than that. This helps me find the truth, rather than trusting my emotions. I also only had alcohol 18 days of this year. This year is one that I'm grateful for, regardless of the hardships. And here is another hard truth, I'm going to experience real hardships next year too....so are you. I don't have an unrealistic expectation that life is just going to show up the way I want it to, people are just going to show up a certain way because that is what I want. This is life. It's not the events that change us, it's our perception of the events, the meaning we give them, and how we choose to respond. I hope to see you along the way! Onward and upward!

🔥 WOW Next year Hey, my friend, the way you enter into next year isn’t determined by your goals, your strategies, or even your systems. Yes, those things matter. But what matters most is you. How you show up personally will make or break everything else. You can have the best strategies, the best ideas, the best plans on paper. But if your heart is weary, if your mind is tired, if your vision is unclear, it won’t matter. Because you’ll carry that weariness, that exhaustion, and that lack of focus into next year—and everything else will fall apart. So I’m asking you to take a moment. Take a moment today, this week, this year to focus on you. Give your heart time to find peace. Give your mind time to rest. Let your vision grow inside of you. For me, this year has been massive. Launching businesses, launching services—it’s pushed me to the edge. But now? Now, I step into a time of rest. A time to heal, to recharge, to prepare. Because when I step into next year, I’m stepping in with force. --> With strength. --> With joy. --> With peace. --> With focus. I’ve decided what I don’t want to carry with me into next year, and I’m leaving it behind. My friend, I hope you’re doing the same. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. You were created to bring light, joy, and hope. You weren’t meant to cower in fear. You were meant to stand in strength, to rise, and to step into your calling with confidence. Next year is coming. The question is—how are you choosing to step into it?

Rest: A Reflection for the New Year Here we are, standing on the edge of a new year—another chapter nearly written in the story of our lives. As I’ve been reflecting, searching for profound words of wisdom to sum up this season, nothing came to me at first. Instead, I realized something important: my mind is at rest today. And that’s the word that resonates with me—rest. We live in a world that moves so quickly. Our days are packed, our minds full of swirling thoughts, plans, and worries. We wear busyness like a badge of honor. But when was the last time you truly rested? Not just slept, but stopped, breathed, and allowed yourself to simply be? Rest is a gift we often overlook. It’s in those moments of quiet that we can reset, find clarity, and connect with what really matters. Rest allows us to step into the new year not just with determination but with peace. As we prepare to cross the threshold into another year, I invite you to pause and ask yourself: What does rest mean for you? How can you embrace it more in your daily life? This New Year, I hope you’ll find moments to rest—not just for your body, but for your mind and soul. Because in rest, we find renewal. Here’s to stepping into the New Year with a little less hustle and a lot more grace.

How will you chose to spend your first day of your next year of 2025?

Your Attention Is Priceless Why Giving It Away Freely Is the Costly Happy New Year! The clock has started, it’s 2025. Just like that. This is the year __________ (fill in the blank). That’s what we are all thinking about. There is nothing wrong with reflection and having a visualization meeting with yourself. Next, you must decide how to spend your time and attention. To achieve what you filled in the blank, your time and attention spread will be the X factor. That decision is totally up to you. But if you don’t, it will cost you your fill-in-the-blank. Here are all the things that will happen:  1. You will be excited.  2. Life will life, good and bad.  3. You will feel under the weather.  4. You will get a burst of energy.  5. You will get stuck in the airport (like me in this picture)  6. You will have fun.  7. You will cry.  8. You will laugh.  9. You will sing. 10. You will take a shower. This is just a list of things that happen in life. Sometimes, you need to remind yourself that, good or bad, I am breathing; keep going. Protect your time and attention in 2025 so you can fill in the blank. Praying for everyone reading this message to have their best year ever! ❤️ P.S. Which airport do you think this is in my picture?

For some, it’s not the most wonderful time of the year. For some, the holidays bring heartache—missing loved ones, navigating family tensions, or feeling disappointed by what hasn’t been accomplished. I see you, and I want you to know that it’s okay to feel those things. This time of year can amplify both joy and pain, but it also offers a chance for reflection and growth. If this year hasn’t gone the way you hoped, that doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Sometimes the most meaningful progress is internal, the quiet resilience we build when life doesn’t go as planned. Let’s give ourselves permission to take a break from perfection and embrace what’s right in front of us: the things that did go well, and the ability to reset, refocus, and grow in ways we might not even realize. Whether it’s a small act of kindness to yourself or a step toward healing old wounds, there’s always room for hope and positive steps forward. So, as you face the holiday season, remember: It’s okay not to have everything figured out. You are enough, just as you are, and you have the strength to make it through. #YouAreEnough

Welcome to the third week of January. Where the bright eyes dim, the bushy tails lose volume. I find this the most disheartening week of the year. Everyone has returned with their "new year, new me" energy, and then you see it dampen as the "it's a January problem" chickens come home to roost, and the daily rhythm is a repeat of the previous years'. Four things I've done to keep the motivation up: 🧐 Reviewed those "resolutions" (on my side they're more like intentions for the year) - because the ones that are still sticking, are probably the ones worth pursuing. And if none of them stuck, it's time to reflect on "why" and reset. (Thankfully I am old and ugly enough to have learnt this lesson, and can proudly say that most of mine are still aligned with where I want to go 💪) 🍉 Took a break. Yup. Picked up a horrendous flu over the break, but I was so caught up in the "new year" hype that I didn't give myself a chance to recover properly, and it was starting to show. So I took some time to make sure I get my energy back up. Flu's still here, but I feel a thousand times better! 📱 Stop scrolling LinkedIn. For the most part, it's the same vanilla AI-generated content from last year. I like to clean up my feeds and inboxes this time of year to make way for more interesting content to spark my days. 💫 Zoom out. Reflect on the "glimmers" of the time off (the feel-good moments where everything felt clear and purpose-aligned), and figure out how to bring a little of that perspective into the work that needs to be done today. This puts the meaning back into my work. Anyone else? No? Just me?

THE DECEMBER DILEMMA As the year winds down, December feels like the ultimate internal performance review where the ghosts of what “I Did”, “I Should Have” and “I Could Have’ compete for attention. ‘I DID” – the sweet satisfaction of accomplishment! ·     I hit that career milestone ·     I nailed that project! ·     I’m on track to a healthier lifestyle This is your personal highlight reel but to be honest, how often do we pause to celebrate? “I SHOULD HAVE” - The Regrets ·     I should have spoken up. ·     I should have taken that risk ·     I should have prioritized my health Regret has a way of creeping in over December but the key is to transform regret into insight. “I COULD HAVE” - The Possibilities ·     I could have switched jobs ·     I could have launched that bold idea ·     I could have spent more time with family These are bittersweet, they are not just about missed opportunities but about potential. The trick about balancing these is to: ·     CELEBRATE what you did ·     LEARN from what you regret ·     DREAM about what is possible   At the end, December doesn’t have to be a closing chapter but the prologue to a new book.  As you sip that holiday drink, embrace all three voices. Let “I DID” remind you of your power, “I SHOULD HAVE” guide your growth and “I COULD HAVE” spark your imagination!  After all, every great story is shaped by twists, turns and second chances. Yours is no different. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Patience wasn’t my thing, but life had other plans. If you’re in a waiting season right now, this is for you. I’ve always been someone who chases what I want with everything I’ve got. Opportunities, goals, dreams, you name it, I’m running full speed ahead. But life? Life loves to throw in a waiting period. And for the longest time, I hated it. I saw waiting as something to endure, a roadblock between me and what I wanted. But here’s what I’ve learned: The waiting season isn’t just a delay; it’s preparation. Some of my biggest breakthroughs came after moments when I was forced to pause. In those quiet periods, I learned patience, resilience, and how to trust the process. I gained clarity about where I was heading and how to handle the next step. Now, I no longer rush through the waiting periods. I’ve realized they’re just as important as the destination itself. They’re where the real growth happens. So, if you’re in a waiting season right now, don’t jump out of the process. Lean into it. Learn from it. The waiting isn’t happening to you; it’s happening for you. Have you ever been in a waiting season that taught you something valuable? #PersonalGrowth #Patience #LifeLessons #CareerJourney #Motivation #SelfReflection

As the year 2024 comes to a close, I would like to reflect on some of the most valuable lessons I have learned throughout the year. These lessons include: 1) recognizing my capacity to emerge stronger and more resilient in the face of adversity. 2) harnessing my inner strength to advocate for the life I envision and the things that bring me joy. 3) understanding the beauty of surrender and recognizing that sometimes, the greatest strength lies in knowing when to let go. 4) practicing self-compassion and giving myself grace. 5) acknowledging that others can only provide what they have within themselves. 6) establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries. 7) remembering my inherent worth. 8) recognizing that health is a vital component of overall well-being. Remaining humble is essential. It is also important to remember that not everything is about monetary wealth. 9) trusting my instincts, as intuition is a valuable guide. 10) cultivating gratitude for my life experiences. As I approach the year 2025, I am committed to navigating life's journey with a renewed sense of calm and purpose, guided by the principles of love and peace, and remaining open to the blessings that await me.
