Have a Safe and Happy New Year!

Another year is upon us and we're fixing to cross a threshold that gives us the opportunity to let go of what was and embrace the new. It is a time to honor this year for what it taught you, the gifts it brought you, and the people it sent to you. They all have served to help shape you into a better person.

Open your eyes to the people that surround you. We tend to overlook the people in our everyday lives assuming they will always be there and take them for granted. Life is impermanent, and all situations eventually change. 

Each action you make in each moment affects your future. Choose wisely on what you create and how you react to situations.

Grow to embrace self awareness. It's huge. Are you speaking to yourself kindly or harshly? Those words will create your life situations. 

Keep your head and palms up always. It shows that you are open to receiving, and you are worthy of greatness. 

Don't blame anyone for any situations your unhappy in. If you want to change things for the better, make the change yourself. That's exercising personal power. Blaming puts you in victim mode.

Watch the assumptions you make about situations and people. The mind loves to create stories and assume things that may not even be true.

Let it be. You will often come across uncontrollable circumstances that you simply cannot change no matter how you would want the outcome to be. Accept it for what it is, and most importantly don't let those situations deflate you. 

Lastly, appreciate yourself because you're amazing regardless of your profession, status, looks, etc. The ego loves seeking validation from external things. Nothing externally can ever permanently give you value, because it's all temporary. Your value and worth come from within.

In 2016, I hope you choose to live boldly, passionately, authentically, and most importantly make some magic out there! Have a safe and happy new year everyone!
