Have a moment of reflection!
A new year without a renewed mindset is as good as living in the old year.
Many people do not only celebrate the new year. They strongly rejoice with the hope that a new year will bring new opportunities and blessings for them. The excitement, the wishes, the greetings, the hugs, drinks, good food and music are traditional ways of expressing this good feeling about the new year.
The truth of the matter is that a new year without a renewed mindset is as good as living in the old year. Besides, the new year and the old year are only distinguished by a few seconds on the clock. So if you don’t renew your mindset you will get the very same results, or worse, when you do the same things you did last year. No one in his or her right mind will use the same ingredients to cook a stew and expect it to taste differently. The same ingredients, the same outcome; that’s common knowledge.
The new year has just started. And I strongly advise you to have some time out of the excitement. Start facing the reality that comes with the possibilities of your life being the same or worse if you don’t have a moment of reflection. You have to meditate on your life, how you did things last year, and how you made decisions. By so doing your mentality and approach will change, and eventually your mind will be renewed.
“The year is still brand new and birds are singing praises to its slender.” Dreams and hopes are greatly possible. But only those who renewed their minds will celebrate the end of it with victory in their hands. Change of mindset will change how one perceive things. As tradition demands, we have celebrated every second of this new year with panache. But know it is time to roll up our sleeves and work hard as success demands, because a renewed mind, faith and hard work equal great success. I love you all. Stay blessed!
