New year.
New you?
Most of us believe there is something significant about a new year.
The thought of a new beginning is very appealing.
However, a new beginning is really not determined by a new year.
Your fresh start is the day and time you make the decision.
Like most people, I too looked forward to a new year as a new beginning.
Don’t get me wrong, it can certainly be a starting point for anything.
Personally, I made some decisions in 2018 that would affect what I wanted to happen.
Although we do not have control over all things, we have control over many things.
A major thing you have control over is your life.
Your life can be what you make it.
Even with disappointments, trauma and the unexpected, you have the power to rebuild again.
It may take a moment to get yourself together, but the final decision is yours.
After confronting some serious things in my life over the past few years, I am more than persuaded that life is what we make it.
I asked myself some hard questions in 2018.
Took time to look deep into my soul.
Reviewed the areas I gave my power away.
Today my vision is clear.
Life will happen.
How I respond is my choice.
We all know there will be cycles of hurt, trauma, unexpected, and even betrayal that take place.
There will also be rebuilding, realignment, re-centering, renewing and refocus.
What does your introduction into 2019 sound like?
Are you prepared to own your power?
No matter what takes place in the days to come, the past has made you stronger.
Live your life on purpose.
