It’s A New Year Filled with Opportunities
Happy New Year!
Here We Go! 2024!
Let me encourage you to start by shaping your perspective….
It’s a New Year… New Start… filled with New Opportunities!
“Every year you make a resolution to change yourself. This year, make a resolution to be yourself.” - Unknown
God created you, as you!
You have special gifts and talents. It is learning to tap into your God-given talents and abilities that makes the best you! Don’t try to create something that is not authentic.
“In this new year, be grateful that God has given you victory over many things over the past year.” - Steven M. Hitchcock
You’ve accomplished so much in 2023 and now it is time to trust God and move forward to 2024, knowing that you made it through 100% of your difficult and good days this past year.
You are alive and well, so get ready to take on 2024 with all of its challenges and victories just waiting for you.
Choose today to be your Best Day… to live “Your Best Life Now!!”
“Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Why wait for tomorrow! While planning is good, Learn from your past… Plan for the future… but Live for today!
That's right… Today!!!
Today is the day God gave you to live and every moment is precious.
“Approach the New Year with resolve to find the opportunities hidden in each new day.” - Michael Josephson
It is how you approach life and the perspective you have today that really matters!
There are opportunities all around you, but many take some work to find. You have to be intentional about each moment.
So what are you waiting for?
What are you thinking now?
What action are you taking now?
Start with being Grateful.
So many great things are happening each day for you, so take advantage of the good and don’t focus on the bad.
Challenges will always be there, but when you are thankful, good things happen.
So, “Be grateful to God, every year you live.” - Lailah Gifty Akita
As Alfred Lord Tennyson says, this year “Ring out the false, ring in the true.”
Don’t believe what others say about you and don’t let yourself be ruled by your current circumstances. They do not define you!
You are truly Blessed by God and have so much potential.
Move forward in that.
Remove any fears and worries, by having courage. And Remember what Nelson Mandela said, “I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it.”
And the only way to triumph over adversity is to keep showing up, and keep moving forward.
It is up to you.
“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen!” - Brene’ Brown
Do not isolate yourself in 2024, but let yourself be seen and use the talents and abilities God gave you to bring value to the world around you.
Your community is waiting!
And You Can Do It!
Have an Awesome New Year.
Here we come 2024!!!
Blessings!
