By Marcy Morrison-
Happy New Year. I hope that you enjoyed the holidays and took some time to reflect on the past year and create a vision for 2022.
I had someone recently share with me that they were living at a C+ level in a certain area in their life. It was something about the way they shared it that struck a chord deeply within me.
I have read a ton of self-development books and heard about a ton of different ways of how to create our best lives.
But there was something about this that really simplified things for me and I thought – hmmm where am I living at a C+ in my life and then the next question I asked myself is how can I make it an A+.
I first really thought and journaled about what truly is an A+ for me and I got clear on how I want to create an A+ 2022 filled with everyone and everything I love.
Next I took an inventory of my life and career and honestly examined what already was at an A+ and celebrated all of those areas and looked at any areas that were below that. This included looking at where I was showing up at an A+ level and where I was not.
I then went through each area of my life and got clear about what steps I need to take this year to get each area of my life to an A+ and how I can show up in each area at an A+ level.
Some of those changes to get my life to an A+ weren’t and won’t be easy including making decisions to let go of some personal and business relationships that were not at an A+ and knowing that I had tried to get them there and accepting that they would never get there. I knew that by letting them go, I have opened the space to allow in A+ personal and business relationships and again, I took the time celebrate those areas in my life that already are at an A+ and where I show up at an A+.
I am starting 2022 feeling like a breath of fresh air has swept through my life and I have total clarity of how I will create an A+ 2022 filled with everyone and everything I love and I am so excited.
I wish the same for you and encourage you to take the time to think about how you will create your A+ 2022.
