Can I share a secret with you?
Did you somehow think when the clock struck 12 midnight on Dec 31, that 2021 would somehow be different? I don’t mean that the pandemic would suddenly go away, but somehow the year changing would create a new beginning? Well, I kind of did and obviously that was not the case.
But today, I want to recreate the narrative for this new year, and hopefully together, we can create a better 2021 going forward. No, for those wondering, this is NOT a political post, but it is a post about mindset and reframing your thoughts. There is so much good stuff in today’s episode! (listen now >>HERE<<)
“Dreams do not come true just because you dream them. It’s hard work that makes things happen. It’s hard work that creates change.”

How does one think positive in a negative, and overwhelming, year? This is the question that I have focused on for this episode.
There are 3 areas that I think everyone should focus on:
- Isolation and not isolating yourself
- Mindset – think positive
- Self-care, this is important!
But most importantly…. you are not alone in how you feel! We are all going through some similar in some form.

What helps is focusing on what you can control:
- Exercise
- Communication
- Helping Others
- Learning new things
I also think it is important to also look back at 2020 and find those silver linings. I delve into all of this and so much more in this podcast episode. Listen >>HERE<<
