"Risk Expands You"
/And so it goes another year has come and gone and for many, this time of year is a time to reflect on all that has happened over the last year. It is also a time where we look ahead to what we hope to accomplish for ourselves in the upcoming year.
As I take some time to look back on this past year a lot of thoughts and emotions run through my mind. I continue to be very thankful for the opportunities and adventures that have come my way. There have been a lot of significant changes that have taken place in 2019, leaving toxic and negative environments and hoping that the decisions I’ve been making are leading me to where I should be. I’m a big believer in things will work out the way they are supposed to even if you don’t see it in the present moment. What I take a way are more lessons on this thing called life.
As I enter 2020, I’m ready to take on more risks, because it expands you, “To make a positive change in your life, you often must take a risk. You must tolerate some level of uncertainty.” I also want to learn to let go of the worrying, and things I don’t have control over and just make every day count.
I’m looking forward to 2020 and what it will bring. Stay true to yourself, find your tribe, and accept that you can't please everyone. Be present in the here and now and savor the moment. Rather than dwelling in the past or fretting about the future, focus on exactly what you are doing with full attention
To my family, friends and the strangers who continue support and encourage me, thank you for giving me a purpose.
Happy New Year!
