2021: Here’s to a Better New Year

Oh my Heavens. Happy New Year to each of you!!

We made it guys.

Last year was tough & full of SO much uncertainty.

We were abruptly introduced to a new normal that wasn’t the easiest to adjust to. Our literal way of life was flipped. & at one time, it seemed as if the world had lost all hope. * cue the deep breathing *

You get my point. But we made it. 

& that feels amazing.

Not even kidding. We were strong enough to push through the really dark, difficult times. It’s a big deal.

& even though we have no earthly idea how 2021 will go ( what year have we ever known, really? ), I encourage you to take your growth & what you learned last year, & just make the best of what will come!

Also, let me just add that IT IS OKAY TO BE OPTIMISTIC.

I understand the whole “getting your hopes up just to be let down” situation. I truly do. However, a really smart woman who is a total BOSS that I completely admire said not too long ago,

“You experience what you expect.”

So if you’re expecting this year to be just as bad as last year, or worse, that is exactly what you will experience. The same goes if you’re expecting this year to be lighter & brighter than 2020. You will get just that.

It’s really a mindset thing. I’m almost reminded of my favorite quote from The Strangest Secret.

“We become what we think about.”

It’s the same concept. You choose how your year is going to go, how you’re going to be, WHAT you’re going to be, just from the way you think.

I’ve stepped into 2021 with a new attitude. This year WILL be better. I’m claiming it.

What about you???

Here’s to 2021. 🥂 Let’s go.
