Empowering Your Shift from Daydreaming to Dream Doing

December 11 - Has it been a banner or a bust year?

December 11 – Has it been a banner or bust year? As you reflect on 2024, are you pleased with how it has played out or disappointed? Have you gained insights from challenges that helped you leap ahead, or did you allow these challenges to set you back? Did you achieve some of your goals, yet you are so focused on what was not accomplished that you cannot appreciate what you did succeed at doing? Additionally, did you accomplish some things that were not even a part of your goals or plan, and yet you have benefited greatly from these accomplishments?

In any moment along the journey towards success, there will be peaks and there will be valleys. Your greatest asset in either case is your attitude and how you embrace both the highs and the lows. If you allow the lows to overshadow your highs, then you may be limiting just how far you could really go. If accomplishing everything is your only measure of success, you are missing the beauty of all that you have accomplished along the way.
