I’m pretty
sure you didn’t see 2020 coming... I know I didn’t! it’s been a
complete whirlwind of unexpected emotions: stress, fear, confusion, exhaustion,
worry… anger.
And although
2020 has taught me some monumental lessons that have helped me in my personal
life, my relationship and even my career (for which I am SO grateful), I’ve been right there in the trenches
with you... feeling ALL of those crazy emotions that this year has stirred up.
I have read
your comments, posts, and emails filled with uncertainty, frustration, and
anxiety. I know for many of you this has been the
hardest, most trying year you’ve ever experienced. Dealing with the lunacy that we call 2020 requires the mental fortitude
(and confidence) to feel the fear and acknowledge the uncertainty, but keep
grounded and focused despite it.
I know it is going to be difficult
to resist the “I just want things to go back to the way
they used to be” feeling, but
this is an impossible wish because everything is
constantly changing. Circumstances can improve or get worse, but they can never
go back to the way they were.
In all
honesty, it will take us a long time to heal
because we keep trying to return to who we
were before the hurt, but that person is long
gone. It was only after I began breathing life into a new me that I started
developing into the person I am today.
We can
never be who we once were, which is great news IF we celebrate and focus on who
we are becoming in this moment.
It’s 2021.
Where's your
focus?
