Fail Proof New Year’s Strategies

Seek joy

Stay Curious

Stop Complaining

Release the weight

Court creativity

Laugh everyday

Earn your self-love

Say thank you and mean it

Talk nice to yourself…it’s the longest verbal relationship you will have

Perfection is not a virtue or a badge of honor, it’s fear wearing high heels….give it a rest

Love the one you’re with, no one lives forever

Stop searching for your passion, its’ already found you

Believe deeply in something or you will fall for anything

Find something every day to appreciate

Say I love you and really mean it

Be the gift you want to receive

Unburden yourself from worry

Say yes as often as possible to opened doors

Fear less, live more, cultivate courage

Simplify, organize, get more accomplished

Reality check…be honest

Who are you and what do you want now

Better a trickster, than a martyr be

Live brave…finish strong

Choose a couple of the above strategies. Commit to exploring and expanding them into your new year. No one loses for trying, only for not. Take 2020 as if your life depends on it. It does!

Happy New Year,

Hilda

A Bit of Hair Salon Humor

A hairdresser's thoughts:

I might look like I’m ‘just’ highlighting your hair….

But in my head, I’m doing a prayer that your hair lifts to the level I think it will. I’m already pre-formulating your toner, trying to remember your daughter's name, figuring out how many more foils I can put in before I wet my pants, deciding what I want for dinner, and summoning the gods for more coffee. -Facebook posting

QUOTE OF THE MONTH

“You can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.” –Shonda Rhimes

In our new book, Living Brave…Finishing Strong , Kylee Daily, a 26-year-old in her first quarter of life answered the question, Who are you and what have you discovered about yourself thus far?

Kylee responded, “I have begun to love simplicity over complexity. I have learned to worry less, and love more. I have learned material things are useless and experiences are priceless, and each moment you get to spend with someone you love is a gift from God.”
