Bigger & Better: 2012

2 days left in 2011? Crazy right?!  It feels like the beginning of the year just hit us.  I remember leaving church from 2010's New Year's Eve service and driving downtown to see all the people walking around with NO coat on-not to mention it was December.  The weather was about 50 degrees appearing to be spring in the smack dead middle of a Michigan winter. Scary.  I remember the goals and resolutions that I made and looking back now, I actually accomplished some.  You know there is always that "exercise" goal that we all have made once or twice before, and the saving money blah blah blah, I actually did pretty decent. I think I might have stopped the exercise goal in about July/August (I started feeling myself a bit lol). 

New Year's Eve 2010

Now that its almost 2012 of course I'm thinking about what I hope it will look like. Will I save more money? Have my dream job? Will my business plan come to life? These questions flow through my mind but I know whatever is suppose to happen in 2012 will happen if its in God's will for my life. The hardest part is being patient and watching it unfold in front of my eyes.

One thing that I decided to do before the New Year was to create a vision board. The board is a visual for me to look at everyday of my dreams, goals, and words of inspiration. Whenever I feel discouraged, I'll look at the board as a visual reminder along with prayer. Vision boards can be created with a simple poster board, glue, scissors, and old magazines. If you see something that you like, cut it out and put it on the board. Its a fun way to see your plans come to life. The coolest thing about it is, at the end of the year you can go back to it to see if you accomplished anything. If not, try again.

....so my New Year's Theme for 2012 is "Bigger & Better". Its simple, just think "Big" and do "Better" in all aspects of my life.  What's your Theme for 2012?

 Yours Truly,
