Starting Off Right
Away from the noise and the happy new year trends, it's important to start the year on a good note - the one that resonates with you. Calm or loud, you decide!
Happy new year and welcome to 2022!!! Better late than never!
A lot of people are setting goals, writing resolutions, and are already making plans, executing, and winning only 1 week into the year, and that’s beautiful, but there’s no rush…or is there? For some, engaging in spiritual activities is a great way to start the year - with fasting and prayers, committing God into everything for 2022, and this is also a pretty good way to start the year. However, for some others who haven’t made plans just yet or are caught up in the rush hour, I believe this is also a perfect place to be.
It’s okay to simply breathe, absorb all the weather changes in these first few days, let your mind wander, live in the moment, and take some time to plan, set intentions, choose a lane and regulate the speedometer. Oh, and please feel free to take the wheel and drive on the limit you want, navigating through lanes, letting your hair down, and choosing when to take a break, pause, breathe, play, and keep up with others, or just do you.
So, here’s a little reminder to stay true to yourself in 2022, choose your lane, protect your energy and be accountable for your actions and inactions. Your mental health is important and I believe 2022 is another year to live, love, breathe and smile.
No pressures!
