Though I’m a fan of starting a new resolution whenever you feel motivated, whether it’s a new year or not, I love the electric feeling that new years brings. There is a collective desire and excitement to be better, do better, live better, and support each other. Plus, fireworks. Any time there are fireworks lighting up the sky I turn into a giant 6 year old full of wonder.

Yes, this message might seem like it’s a few days late, but I am okay with that. That’s part of (one of) my resolution(s) this year, to give myself a break on all kinds of things and focus instead on forging ahead in life (work, relationships) in a mindful, positive way. Even if something is a day late I am challenging myself to still follow through with it. It would be great if we could all be super organized and meet every deadline with flying colors, but sometimes other things get in the way. We all have to prioritize how we spend our time, right?

I’m enjoying this season and I hope you are, too!
