As many
of you know I entered 2012 hanging on to the edge….
2011 was
one of the more painful years in my life...
Heartbroken….sad…depleted
on so many levels…I had definitely hit my low in 2011…
I entered
this year (2012) determined to get my stuff taken care of…(to be fair to
myself…I actually started my transformation July, 2011) but I was determined to
have a good full year….
I
did!!!!!!! Most of you have read my blog so you can figure out... step by step....
how I got back on my feet...
2012 was
probably one of the top three “best and rock star awesome” years of my life…
I have
had many great experience throughout my entire life…
So what
made 2012 different…
I
actually made a list of resolutions (reminders )in which I posted on my
refrigerator and I looked at them almost every day for the entire year..
They were
not crazy unattainable ones…they were just reminders of how I wanted to live…
Here are
a few of mine from 2012:
Be
Grateful
Thank
God
Serve
Others
Love
Save
Be
Present
Cry
When Need Be
Pray
Try
As Many New Things as Possible
For most
of this year I stayed present in the moment; I focused on everything good in my
life (helps when sadness and difficult situations arise….which they did); I was
of service to others; I found faith and spirituality; I prayed and talked to
God....a lot; I let go; I cut negative people out of my life; I spent a lot of
AWESOME time with my kids; I loved…loved…and loved….myself and others…
I also
had a great time at work…I tried lots of new adventures….I traveled….I chose to
focus on what was good in my life….even during the dark times of the year (this
is life on life’s terms after all and dark times do happen…)
If you
struggled in 2012....2013 can be different...I am sure of it!
It
isn’t too late to live the life you want to live…internally and externally..
Overcoming
adversity isn’t easy…making changes isn’t easy….sometimes doing the right thing
isn't easy...looking for the good in every situation and every person isn’t
easy….letting going and trusting God isn’t always easy….
But I did
all these things this year and my year was amazing…
Make a
2013 “reminder” list and post it on your refrigerator….get your stuff
together….it isn’t too late…you are not stuck…you can make changes…you can have
the life you want….love yourself and others...you deserve it..
Love you
and here is to having an awesome 2013!!!!

it Real with Dr. Mary G
