It’s A New Year!

One of my old friends on facebook made me cringe a little for him, and laugh at the same time. His status said that he “has one resolution: Make 2009 suck less than 2008.”

I can remember times, in my past, where I tried creating a better outcome by focusing on the things that went wrong. Anyone, who understands law of attraction, knows that is going about it the wrong way. I’ve learned that you need to take the contrast of the undesirable circumstances and discern what it is you DO want and then focus on that. In addition to that, you need to be able to look at where you are and where you have come from and find things to appreciate. Raising that appreciation vibe will open the door to allow your vibrational escrow to flow in.

Looking back over 2008, I am absolutely amazed at what a monumental year it really was.

- We totally gutted our kitchen and had it professionally redesigned. It looks BEAUTIFUL now and was well worth the 3 months it took! Luckily we had a second kitchen in this house due to the previous owner making a mother-in-law suite.

- My “little girl” started middle school this year. I can’t believe she is in 6th grade already!

- On the business front, we moved our office to a new location and now have warehouse space to hold all our stock. The business continued to grow and thrive in 2008.

- We added 2 (!) new additions to our family, Lulu and Sophie. Two sisters born on 1/1/2008 and are now about 60lbs a piece! So the family now has, Mom, Dad, One Daughter, Two Sons, 3 Dogs and a Cat (… and a partridge in a pear tree )

- We bought a house for my mom and moved her down here to live near us. That was pretty monumental for me when I look back on our relationship in the past. She was here once before and I was VERY glad when she moved back up north to be with my brother. What a difference a couple of years, alot of Abraham and alot of EFT, and tons of personal growth can make. She’s here and everything is perfect between us – NO DRAMA at all!

- We helped Steve’s brother and sister-in-law find a house to buy in NC for rental income. They are from England but will eventually be moving across the pond for at least 1/2 the year once they retire.

- I “ran away” for a “me” break to take part in the “I Can Do It” conference in Tampa. I discovered that my “fear of flying” no longer was. I discovered that my social anxiety was pretty much gone as well. I actually did quite a bit of work on the social anxiety aspect with EFT before I went and was pretty impressed that it paid off! During this trip, I also ended a 10 year friendship. It was very hard to do, but I needed to get my life back into a calm place. I put my needs first instead of someone else’s needs. THAT was pretty monumental for me too.

Ah 2009. I wonder what amazing things the next 365 days has in store for me.

Happy New Year Everyone!

I hope 2009 brings you ultimate joy, health and prosperity! You deserve it and I believe we all can achieve that!
