Journey to Become the New You!

Hi, my loyal readers! It seemed like yesterday that we were celebrating the holidays with our loved ones. In fact, I was reminiscing of all the events that took place in 2021. Let me tell you, it was a lot of changes, and I am not exaggerating! It is because of these changes that I will be talking about this topic today.

Ralph Waldo Emerson states, “the only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” Now the million-dollar question is, “how do I change from my old me to become a new and improved version of myself? What is the necessary process to a total transformation?

I am so glad you asked! As I am smiling, (I know you can’t see me), you have the answer. It begins within you. Deep inside your soul, there are thoughts and beliefs that guide you every day of your life. Uncovering those thoughts and beliefs are critical to determining what are lies and what are truths.

First, write-downs the things you have accomplished. I mean what you have been able to do, get a certificate, license, personal awards, etc... Write it ALL down. Do you remember how you were able to accomplish it? Who was alongside you that was a catalyst of your success? What characteristics and traits in you did you demonstrate to reach your goal?

I want you to focus on what you did right in your life. Bring with you that same mindset, characteristics and traits will to be applied to your new dreams and adventures. In the next blog, I will be speaking about the roadblocks that can either be a risk or an opportunity for growth in your personal development. Looking forward to talking with you next week!

Reaching For What’s Ahead

Hello my faithful readers! It is a brand-new year filled with hope, expectations, and dreams! As you know from my previous blog, I have been doing a vision board of what I am expecting to achieve for 2022. It is still a working progress; however, I am about 90% done with the project.

It is an important step I am doing because I am putting on paper what I am dreaming and envisioning my future to look like. As I look at it daily, I will be putting action steps to accomplish those commitments. I say commitments because I am making myself accountable for it to become a reality.

Now, I want to speak to you. What are the dreams you are wanting to become true to your life? I am not saying five years from now. It should start today. Don’t say it is impossible! All things are possible if you only believe.

My next question I will ask you is this, “if money was not a concern, then what would you want to do?” Begin there so you can build upon that. Write it down so you can see it. Research if needed to find out how it can be achieved. Speak with key people that can help you in your journey. They will make it fun for sure!

Don’t dwell on the past successes, failures, and regrets! Gain wisdom from what worked and did not work for your future. Yet, have an open mind and heart to see it with brand new eyes. Have eyes of wonder for what can be done in your life. Lastly, don’t go hastily to the goal. Enjoy the process. It will be an amazing trip! Trust me. I can tell you from my own personal experience. Hugs and kisses!

“Brothers and sister, I myself don’t think I’ve reached it, but I do this one thing: I forget about the things behind me and reach out for the things ahead of me.” Philippians 3:13

Peace, Love, and Joy!

Embracing the New Year with New Expectations!

Happy New Year to all my loyal readers! It seemed like in a blink of an eye that 2021 was here and now it has gone like the whirlwind. What significant events happened last year? Don’t know if you had the opportunity to take a moment to consider that question.

Before the start of this year, I can tell you that I started to ponder on that question myself. You might be wondering, how did I do it? Well, I am going to let you in my little secret. Lean a bit closer to me so I can whisper it softly to your ears. Are you ready to know the answer? Yes! Good, I will tell you.

I started to look over what my plans where to be accomplished in my vision board. A vision what? For those that are not familiar with the term, it is a poster board that you put pictures, words, and action plans you want to achieve during the year. It becomes a focal point to ensure that you are heading to the goals.

It is putting your dreams and aspirations on paper so it can become a reality. It truly has helped me in my journey toward total restoration in my life! So, it can be for you too. You must want a change in your life bad enough for it to work. If so, I will guide you in what you need to do this.

1. Think about the areas you want to change (Spirit, mind, and body).

2. Have a central theme for the year (Out with the Old, In with the New).

3. You can cut from old magazines pictures and words to paste on board.

4. You can draw, color, or design it as simple or elaborate as you want.

5. Go to the internet to get ideas to assist in this process.

6. The sky is the beginning of your future.

7. Have lots of fun doing it!

Dream big like Walt Disney. You will not regret it! “And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision and engrave it plainly on (clay) tablets, so that the one who reads it will run.” Habakkuk 2:2 AMP
