This year I decided I would not do New Year’s
resolutions. Honestly, by the third
month I have pretty much failed on them all, then for the rest of the year I beat
myself up for failing. 2013 was a mess of a year for me. While I am always blessed,
every obstacle and roadblock seemed to come my way. Honestly there was more
than one time where I just wanted to give up…..figuratively of course .
When a friend of mine blogged about picking a word for the
year I thought it was brilliant. She encouraged others to do the same, so with
that I have chosen my word. BELIEVE is my word for 2014.
The reality is I have been a very good actress. While others
have believed I was confident, outgoing and happy. I have been quite the opposite.
There were so many things I didn’t believe. I didn’t believe I was beautiful;
therefore I didn’t take care of my appearance or shop for myself, or do
anything that was in line with a person who believed they were important. 2014
I will believe in the beauty of me inside and out.
I didn’t believe I was successful, due to the fact I wasn’t
quite where I wanted to be at this time in my life. I am shedding that belief
as well. I am as successful as I believe I am.
There is so much power in believing. When you believe things happen. It’s no surprise that because I focused so much on the negative that is exactly what was manifested in my life.
Resolutions are hard, and while I hope to set goals
throughout the year, my one word will remain constant….BELIEVE. This year I
choose to believe that all things are possible and 2014 is going to have some
great things waiting for me.
