What better time than the present to write off all of the negative thoughts, fears, habits, and worries that we fought in 2008 (and perhaps won some battles against) as we shift our focus and sights on a prosperous, joyous and WONDERFUL 2009!
Clearly, we are bound to face some challenges similar to the ones we faced in 2008! Remember, this battle against adversity, fear and anxiety is inevitable! However, it is not to be feared, or avoided! It is to be welcomed and dispensed of as quickly as possible!!
Half of our real battles are fought NOT in action on the "battle fields" where they ought to be fought, but instead on the battle fields of our minds! And often times we lose the battle BEFORE we even fight it for real!
Our minds allow the NOTION of loss to overwhelm and overrun our spirits until we are cowering and shaking and absolutely paralyzed by FEAR - unable to fight and WIN against this dreaded enemy... Our own DOUBT!!!!
Resolve in 2009 to identify and FIGHT OFF this negative notion as it occurs and make a point to actually stare down and face your fears exactly where FEAR hates to be - in the light of the TRUTH!!!
It can be done - easily in fact - as long as we prepare ourselves to know when this negative thought compounding is actually occurring - AND by taking the positive, confident, mental action to ward it off ahead of time!!
2009 can be whatever you want it to be - but it cannot become the Truth if you let FEAR and DOUBT enter the plans!
So what about what others think!??
So what if you Fail!?
So what if you are embarrassed!?
So what if the "old' you disappears and people who enjoyed the "WEAK" you of old do not like the new, STRONG, CONFIDENT YOU!?
Who are you answering to anyway - other people? Society? Your high school "friends"? Your parents????
Do you enjoy how you feel when you wake up in the morning or when you lay your head on your pillow at night??
Do you want to continue in such a manner and state the rest of your life?
Do you honestly believe that "someone else" is going to rescue you from all of this??
Do you not realize that all the power you have and strength you need has been provided to you already - and is simply WAITING for you to decide to use it as it was intended?
YOU..and only YOU - through your faith and belief in God and in the Truth - can change your life - TODAY!!!
What are you waiting for anyway??
Stay Strong - Happy New Year and Happy "New" YOU -- TODAY!!!
I, for one, cannot wait to meet YOU!
