At the end of 2009, I find myself reflecting and a year full of change. New child, new business venture, sold a home, bought a home, moved family from Grand Rapids, Michigan to Portland, Maine, from the suburbs to the country, working in an office to full-time home office, from a place I new everyone and everything to a clean slate.
Lots of new challenges and at some points, wasn't sure I was going to make it. But sure enough, I made it through. So with 2009 nearing the end, 2010 is wide open for new adventures, challenges and opportunities. A sort of rebirth of everything now that the 2009 dust is settling. I can't wait.
So as you're thinking at this year's end yourself, remember:
Personally, look back and reflect, but also look forward and wonder what awaits.
Professionally, reflect as well, how did things go and where can you improve going forward?
Relationships, value them all.
Happy holidays and giddyup!
