This week, I found myself contemplating the past year, did I fulfil all of this years Hopes Dreams Wants and Needs? And did I have enough consideration for everyone and everything that has passed my way over the last 12 months?
Once again, it’s time to think about the changes I wish to make in the coming year. One of them is financial as I will have paid around 4 million in tax, and what did I get back in return? 4 Chinese paper masks when I gave blood 4 times. I suppose the positive benefit was that I renewed 4 old pints with new blood, helped the sick, and gave the staff a laugh when I placed the masks on my head, thinking we were in a synagogue, not a church hall.
That’s a million pounds a mask; for that, I thought I would at least get one that was made in Great Britain, but unfortunately that shows you it’s not so ‘Great’ anymore.
Anyway, this has got to be a joyous time to think about the new and to let go of the old in all of our lives? When I say old, I am talking in months.
I share my 12 thoughts going into 2022 with you for the next 12 months; although I share them, it is really to motivate me.
1 You are the only one who will take responsibility for yourself; no one else will, so start now
2 Get these three things out of your life, I Should have, I Could have, and I Would have.
3 Never give your power away to empower other peoples weaknesses.
4 My life is a product of my values, not my fears.
5 I don’t want conditions on my decisions.
6 Give the gift of knowledge and make a promise that you will never depart this world without not having shared it.
7 Re-activate things from ‘21 that you didn’t finish.
8 Don’t be surprised if the world is about to alter beyond your wildest thoughts, so get ready to think outside the box.
9 Don’t let yourself become too frightened to become rich if that’s what you genuinely want.
10 If you said in 2021, I don’t understand, then why not turn off the TV and take a few days to research, History, then the future.
11 Healthy people build beautiful societies, and Unhealthy people destroy society; which are you?
12 Don’t follow the rules of fools. Don’t work; do what you love, and you will never work another day in your life.
