The Power Of A Fresh Start
January is the month of fresh starts.
After a holiday filled with family, relaxation, and lots of great food, we've had a chance to reflect on where we are in our life, the things we're happy with, and the things we want to change.
Fresh starts are not only practical - they're also symbolic.
They allow us to hit 'reset' on what's happening in our minds and give us a sense of renewed energy, drive, peace, and enthusiasm.
Perhaps 2012 had some slip-ups, some unexpected turns, some events that didn't go so well. Viewing as a 'fresh' new year is a psychologically healthy way to feel more positive and happy about beginning this new chapter.
Fresh starts make us more likely to achieve our goals because they are an opportunity for a second chance - a chance to prove that we can, in fact, do it!
This January, think about where you'd like to have a fresh start - is it your relationship? Your finances? Your career? Your family? Your personal health and fitness? It doesn't need to be in the form of a resolution, but perhaps just an imprint in your mind.
