2010: The Year Of New Choices
The calendar may indicate that a new year is upon us, but if you carry your old habits and attitudes with you, will there really be anything "new" about it?? This is the perfect time to make time for self-reflection and introspection. Many of us find it difficult to honestly evaluate our lives, so if you need some guidance, try this exercise:

Take a blank sheet of paper and on one side make a column entitled Positives, and on the other side, Negatives. In the Positive column list the following: What in your life is working for you? What are the things that make you happy and fill you with contentment and joy? On the Negative side list all of the things that are NOT working, the things that are making you unhappy, and are holding you back.

After you've done a thoughtful evaluation of what is and isn't working in your life, turn the paper over. Make two new columns: Goals and Plan of Action. In the Goals column list all of your goals for 2010. Don't forget to include things such as "learning to live in the moment" and "finding blessings in every situation" if you have not yet mastered these important life skills. In the Action column list out the steps you need to take and the things you need to do, to accomplish these goals.

Never forget that everything in life always comes down to one thing: choice. Whether you are aware of it, or not, we each have the power to choose - our thoughts, our actions, and our deeds. Sometimes we relinquish this power because we have lost connection with our inner guide. But once you recognize and reclaim this power...all things become possible.

If you do nothing else in 2010 I hope you decide to reclaim your power, and to make choices that will fill you peace, love, and hope. Happy New Year! ~ Andrea :-)
