"You may delay, but time will not, and lost time is never found again."
— Benjamin Franklin
As 2019 begins, the quote above from Benjamin Franklin reminds us all that time moves and life changes with or without us. Often we begin a New Year with a list of things we want to accomplish or change in our life. We believe that in life, you change or be changed.
Unfortunately, we don't take the time to plan or prepare for the work and effort those changes we are hoping to create will take. We begin with enthusiasm and excitement, and then somewhere between the first ten days and the next 90 days, life steps in, and those lists fall away.
With them, our enthusiasm and confidence that life will ever change, and we surrender to the habitual routines we are all too comfortable with.
What if this year could be different?
What if, this year, we could take small daily steps to try and break old habits and routines?
What if we just did one thing each day?
Could picking one thing each day we could do move us toward our goals and create a shift in our lives?
This is my test. Can I create proactive change with one action and one step a day? I hope you will join me as this year unfolds to see how doing one thing daily can and will alter my life.
If you are following along and want to share your story, please message me.
Here is to making 2019, the last year in the teens of this century, one of the small actions to see if it can create "Big" and "Proactive" changes in our lives.
