Your mind will guide your actions

 For some this time of the year is an opportunity to review the past year. A time to celebrate the successes and plan for the year ahead. Do you set New Years' Resolutions? Or perhaps you set out goals, complete a vision board and take action every day to work toward your goals.

No matter your style, making up your mind and being in the right frame of mind will be key to your actions and successes or the opposite. Are you like me and enjoy lifelong learning, through books or courses?

One book I have been able to read over the past few years is Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck. This book goes on to share how our successes in all areas of life are affected by how we approach our goals. 



Who will be clipping pictures and phrases out of magazines and putting together a vision board to help put your goals on top of your mind each and every day? This visual reminder of why you are doing what you are doing will play a key to your success for the year ahead.

No matter how you decide to enter 2023, just remember the quote by Henry Ford, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can't – you're right.”

Your attitude and mindset will drive you to take action to reach your visions and goals. Cheers to a Happy New Year and a Magical 2023 filled with great successes and triumphs.

Feel free to share your thoughts on the book as well as how you prepare for the year ahead.

Make it Magical

let's talk about grief

Grief is a complex and deeply personal emotional response to loss. While it is often associated with the death of a loved one, grief can also arise from various life changes and transitions. Understanding and navigating grief during these times can be challenging, but it is an essential part of the healing process. Here are some insights on understanding grief through different life changes: 1. Loss of a Loved One: The death of a family member, friend, or pet can trigger profound grief. It's important to acknowledge the pain and allow yourself to mourn. Remember that grief is a unique and individual journey, and there is no right or wrong way to grieve. Seek support from loved ones, join a support group, or consider counseling to help you navigate this difficult time. 2. Divorce or Relationship Breakup: The end of a significant relationship can bring about a sense of loss and grief. You may mourn the loss of companionship, shared dreams, and the future you had envisioned. Give your...

How Maremma Sheepdogs and Entrepreneurs are alike

As a Maremma sheepdog owner i thought it would be fun to compare their traits with mune as an entrepreneur. It has been saud that dogs and their owners start to look alike. Im not going to become a white-blonde (though I was one as a little girl), nor will i take to goth make-up as I tease my dogs that they have their black "makeup" on.

Why you may not be following through on commitments.

There can be various reasons why people may fail to follow through on their commitments. Here are a few common factors: 1. Lack of motivation: People may lose motivation or enthusiasm for their commitments over time. They might have initially been excited about a particular goal or promise but later find it challenging to maintain that level of motivation. 2. Poor time management: Many commitments require time and effort to fulfill. If someone has poor time management skills or consistently overestimates their available time, they may struggle to allocate enough resources to fulfill their commitments effectively. 3. Overcommitment: Sometimes, people take on more commitments than they can realistically handle. This can result in spreading themselves too thin, leading to difficulty in meeting all their obligations. 4. Changing priorities: People's priorities and circumstances can change over time. A commitment that seemed important at one point might become less relevant or feasible ...
