Flying without wings by Westlife
I’m excited about 2009. I’ve decided not to set goals and New Year’s resolutions. Instead, I have high hopes and incredible dreams that I intend to turn into reality. I have some coaching and business ideas that I plan to launch and the thought of them is just thrilling.
“You’ve got to fight for every dream
Cos who’s to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete”
What are your hopes and dreams for 2009?
Right now, every newspaper, magazine and TV programme is encouraging you to improve in some way… to lose weight, stop smoking, get fitter, be happier and so on. A goal or New Year’s resolution can sometimes feel like a chore when it’s driven by what you think you should be doing.
Hopes and dreams are something special; they make your eyes shine with excitement and your heart sing with joy.
What will really make your eyes shine and your heart sing in 2009?
What do you really hope and dream for?
Concentrate on this and go for it with all your heart and soul! Every day, take a step towards it.
As the song say: “Everybody’s looking for that something. One thing that makes it all complete”
We can sometimes get caught up in chasing something in a belief that when we have it, everything will be perfect. Amongst all this dreaming and goal setting, it’s important to remember that life happens right here right now in the present. This moment is reality.
What is here right now that makes your eyes shine and your heart sing?
Right now, my dog Gracie is snoring at my feet, my cat Dennis is out hunting for mice, my husband Paul is cooking dinner and I’m writing my blog. Life just does not get better than this.
“I’m flying without wings”
Identify thrilling hopes and dreams to move towards in 2009 and enjoy every step of the way, including now. The present really is a gift.
With love,
Jude. x
