Goodbye and Don’t Let the Door Hit You on the Way Out!

With a warm and cheery smile, we wave goodbye to the year 2013 — what a ride it has been!

I have to admit that it was the most trying year I’ve had for a very long time. It had some epic moments — I met new and wonderful people and I sorted out a lot of mental and physical debris that needed spring-cleaning and reshuffling.

On the other hand, it has been a year of lessons, trials, endings and constant testing. Anyone else experience this on a grand scale?

It has been the year of exhaustion — both mental and physical. I have never spent so many hours with my feet up staring at the ceiling!

New Hope, New Beginnings — List Your 7 Wonders

But, what have we here? A new year. What ho!

A chance to start a-fresh, to set some new intentions and to hone down on our desires.

What is it you want to see manifest this year? Have you given it a thought? If not, now is the right time to set down, on paper, some of your hopes and dreams for the next 365 days.

Try think of 7 things that you want — big or small.
Start off with something believable, like for instance, a visit from an old friend or a bunch of flowers. Then work your way up the scale until you’re plotting out your dream home/job/partner/situation, etc.
Give yourself a time-frame that you want to see these things manifest.
Make notes on how you can take action where applicable to realize these desires.
For all the rest, visualize your butt off! Or, even better, make or update your vision board.
Have fun doing this, don’t see it as a chore. Look at it like you are a magnificent artist sculpting your life into an awesome masterpiece!
Lastly, take out this list every morning and read it out loud to yourself. Don’t skip this step. It’s not about hocus-pocus or fairy-dust wishes, it’s about aligning to your desires daily and exciting those neuro-peptides into action. Sometimes we inadvertently forget what we want, so to verbalize this list every day brings you back to the core of your request and direction.

I wish you all a very happy and prosperous new year. Let’s make 2014 the start to something brilliant!
