Woohoo that time of year to start fresh and start my new happy board. Yet I kept putting if off. Why? Not sure, so finally instead of it being something else on the list I needed to tick off, I decided it was so important it needed a celebration! A big celebration. It makes my life better every year so I should be hugely celebrating that and sending it lots of gratitude. It is a fun process. It was time to make it that way.
But then the ‘should’ voice in my head said ‘but you aren’t drinking’. The fun voice said there is leftover bubbly in the fridge from NYE that needs to be finished. What better time for starting a new year process? I gave in. Or did I? It sounds like a bad thing. Did I actually just decide to be kind to myself and have some fun? (With some encouragement from a lovely friend who said I should definitely have a drink and celebrate starting the 2017 happy board – we love our wise friends).
So here I am with my bubbly, in my tropical holiday clothes (why the hell not????!!!!) and Bernard Fanning blaring on the stereo.
It now feels amazing. And I am psyched all over again. This is going to be the best year of my life. If a little terrifying at times. But if you stop growing you wither and die. So let’s embrace the fear, be curious and make amazing things happen.
What if there are more things we want to do/achieve/be and we could make them fun?????
Be kind to yourself (in 2017!)

Cheers to embracing fear and taking risks in order to grow and experience the new. Happy New Year Wendy and thanks for your inspirational posts.
Thank you so much gorgeous woman. I really appreciate it! I think 2017 is going to be an amazing year for so many people – tiny baby steps out of their comfort zones to get them so much bliss. x
