TIME OF REFLECTION

What have you done in the last 365 days that you set out to do? Have you considered that it’s not over yet?

It has been my observation over the years that despite the location I have been in, in the world at this particular time of year that the outcome or atmosphere has always been the same. People begin to reflect on their life and ask themselves what have I accomplished? It starts right after Thanksgiving! Thoughts of buying gifts, seeing loved ones and embracing the conclusion of yet another year start to overwhelm peoples mind.

The songs of holiday cheer fill the air and every shopping establishment known to man. The hearts of the less fortunate sink while the pockets of the retail stores overflow. Then it hits, right about the beginning of the second week of December. What did you set out to do for this year? Have actually accomplished it? After careful thought, we immediately shift to I will just add it to the following year’s list. Not this year! Let us make 2011 the starting of a new way of doing things.

Take the time over the next couple of days to be grateful for what you have accomplished and recognize what held you back from accomplishing the other items on your list. Remember 2010 is not over until it’s over! Continue looking for opportunities that present themselves that will allow you to maximize your list.

In 2010 I relocated to the states, set up two households, established this blog, started my own radio show, received another degree, begin pursing a degree in another field, became the COO of a corporation, mentored three teams of hungry professionals, coached several people on how to live with full expectation in life, developing the live 2 produce resource center and am still on the grind…

As you reflect over what you have done this year, make sure you learn from your mistakes and capitalize on every opportunity available to get better.
