As the year comes to a close, it's a nice time to reflect on what we accomplished this year, what failed, and how we can move into the New Year with a plan and defined focus.
It’s good to acknowledge our failures and successes, but not good to dwell on them and use them as excuses as why we can’t achieve or change things this year. To grow, to find happiness, or to find love, we need to take action and put ourselves in the best place possible for success in whatever we are trying to achieve.
We have to experience life, and in the experiencing there will be discomfort and pain. We have to shift our thinking about the pain and realize it is an opportunity to learn, to grow, to change, and to find something deeper within ourselves. We need to experience the pain, but not allow it to become our identity and become a victim of the pain.
Change is necessary for growth, but it also frightening, and we can stay stuck for years if we don't allow ourselves the gift of asking ourselves some hard questions.
To grow, we must start with realizing that no matter what we do or say, change will happen. Embrace it. Welcome it in. My yoga nidra teacher Richard Miller would say, “Invite it in for tea and ask what it wants of you.”
Learn to embrace your life and all the challenges. Be thankful for your past and all the wisdom it has brought you; the lessons learned. It's time to pull out the blank vision board and imagine what you want for your life. Put it out there, and see what you get in return.
