This Week's Reflection

 

This is our final Reflection of 2024. And it is, indeed, a time for reflection.

 

Now, all too often, that takes the form of berating ourselves for the things that we didn't achieve over the course of the year. And, as we recently discussed, words wield power - so no negatives as you reflect. Thank you!

 

Instead, we need to give ourselves credit for the things that we have done this year that we might not otherwise have done were we not growing in a deeper awareness of how the world really works and how we might really be.

 

We need not have achieved what might normally be considered "greatness" in the year that's coming to an end. We need not have implemented major change or done grand deeds.

 

We move forward in baby steps, one now at a time. It is the little wins that we need to appreciate and celebrate.

 

And, you know, sometimes, we don't even appreciate the little win of taking the breath that we're taking right now! With each breath we have the opportunity to be great in the little detail of everyday life. If the "divil is in the detail", so is greatness.

 

Celebrate your greatness right here, right now.

 

 

 

This Week's Quick Tip

 

Don't resolve to do new things in the coming year for, whatever you think you might need to do next year from your current (apparent) vantage point, you do know what's going to happen next.

 

There's no merit in having a list of New Years Resolutions which, in fact, is no more than a glorified To Do List and one with which we will, inevitably end up beating ourselves.

 

Instead, choose, right now, to be present right now, to enjoy right now and to appreciate right now. Then, in the next now, you're ready to... do the same.
