December!!

December is here already. It is hard to believe we have arrived at the last month of the year so soon. Now is a good time to look at where you are, what you’ve accomplished so far this year and see if there are any last minute projects that you can wrap up before the year ends.

This is has been a difficult year for many people due to illness and loss. It’s been a year of struggle for many who are still looking for work or trying to get back on their feet from having been without a job for a long while.

Each year has its challenges that we will either rise to meet or let over take us, how we respond is our choice.

December is a time when I like to look at the progress made throughout the year. That’s when I take the time to really look at things, could I have done something different? Would the results have been different if I had chosen a different approach? What did I learn and how can I improve on things for the next year?

Take some time today to be thankful for the blessings and events of this past year. Be thankful for the people you’ve met along the way, and the lessons you’ve learned, even if they weren’t too pleasant. Take some time to appreciate 2012, for we will never walk this path again.

Then start setting your sights on the future, 2013 is going to be a great year!
