I've heard a lot of people say that 2023 was a tough year and I guess it was but for me it was a year of new beginnings as well.
I finally got 'home' after being locked out of Australia for 2 years. I got to see my kids and my granddaughter. I got to see my Dad for the first time in 4 years. I got to spend time with my brother, his wife and my nieces - things I haven't been able to do in the last 20+ years.
These are all wonderful things.
On top of that, I moved from Canberra to Far North Queensland and started to 'take back my health'. I walked more, I didn't spend "quite" as long in front of the computer, I made new friends.
My health is slowly recovering and I have to take to a moment to remember that it took me a long time to get into this shape, it's going to take just as long - if not longer to get out of it. The point is that each day, it gets better and better. I really have to thank Hollie Barlow from Botanical Synergies, a gifted Chinese Medicine practioner for believing me and working with me in identifying what we needed to do. I also have to thank my Dad, for simply just being there and being encouraging when it got tough.
I travelled to Hawaii (again) and whilst I couldn't stay for as long as I wanted (Border Patrol wouldn't let me) I got to spend valuable time with my friends and we did things we wouldn't normally do. I did the Lighthouse walk and hiked Diamondhead - things that I will never forget doing. I also got to Arizona and drove 2000 miles from there to Oklahoma and back again. I created lifetime memories.
On a business front, I met my wonderful Virtual Assistant Gail Budden and her daughter, Meg Robilliard and we created a team that helps each other and our clients out. Without their help, this year would have been much harder.
That wasn't the end of it either - I met some wonderful new clients who are now (I hope) lifelong clients. And of course, I got to work with my existing wonderful clients.
Has 2023 been all sunshine and roses? No, of course not - but I choose to focus on and share the good times with you.
I hope you all can list out some wonderful moments in 2023 and remember them.
Going into 2024, I want to thank my family and friends for being there, sharing 2023 with me and helping make happy memories.
Happy New Year everyone.
Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
It's easy to react or respond quickly to messages and the like. It's better to do that mindfully. That's why I try to Practice The Pause.
