A new year means the beginning of a lot of new things. It could mean new ways of thinking, new habits, and new attitudes.
When we start something new it means we have to let go of something old. What are you letting go of that is staying behind in 2006? When you ponder on what you are letting go of it gives new meaning to what you are inviting in as your new beginning. Understanding what you are letting go of on a deep level can make it easier to move forward with new ways of being.
The following habits might be something you are letting go of in 2006:
- Bringing in the mail from the mailbox and putting it on the first surface you see.
- When papers pile up, putting the piles of papers in a box or a bin to get it off the floor.
- Taking on too many projects without the time to complete them.
- Changing purses so many times, you aren’t sure which one you are carrying today.
These are just examples of some great things to leave behind. They might follow you into 2007. Habits have a time to be in our lives just like stuff does. There is a time to let them go and you will know when you are ready.
Have a fun and loving Holiday season. Take that habit with you into 2007!!
