1/1/25-the new year is here how about a new you?
It is 2025 now everyone, the beginning of a new calendar year and with that comes fresh opportunities to begin acting in a way that is beneficial to how you want to live life. So since I am the type that makes the effort to take his own advice I am doing just that! Obviously I started a business which is a totally new thing for me, but there are some other things I have done as well.. Sigh~ I am going to go ahead and share it here so I have even more accountability ha! I have taken on the challenge of posting daily on my youtube channel for a while. It will definitely help my channel grow but also help me as a creator, not just in the sense of a youtube creator but as a person who creates other things too.
Oftentimes the difficult moments inspire us to go a little bit harder so we can achieve what we are setting out to. One of my struggles with doing that kind of thing has been not knowing what to say or not knowing what would be important or relevant et cetera. The thing is however, I don't need to be the determinant of that, there are things I know and could share that might be a small perhaps insignificant statement to me, but to the correct person it could be the very tidbit needed to begin their big turnaround! This understanding is really a lesson for us all, we do not get to decide for another what is or is not important. Importance is contextual, fluid, and ever changing depending on where one is at any given point in the journey. But what is not changing is the fact that people will need messages to spur them forward and people are also messengers that do the spurring.
It is really quite beautiful if you stop and give it some thought, at any given time you could randomly hear or read something someone else said or wrote and it could change the way you perceive life! If that be the case, then it stands to reason only that by being and living authentically, I will both inadvertently and purposefully say and do things that at some point impact someone's life in a beautifully meaningful way and the thought of that moment coming into fruition radiates joy throughout my body. What an honor that would be! It is those types of synchronicities that make me feel as though I am doing what I am meant to do or that my words carry weight and therefore I need to act accordingly. It is that sense of responsibility that a person carries when wielding great power. Indeed, great power. Your words are powerful and if there is any indication of that needed just look to my website and see that one can affect water, how well it hydrates and even the surface tension of it. These realizations will hopefully help you to rethink how you speak to your children, family, friends, strangers and yourself... Resisting the urge to lash out when angry and say whatever just because you feel your anger is justified. Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy? Mmm. Rest with it for a while.
Anyway! I didn’t intend to get that deep but that's also the whole point of this blog, to share in many ways that could add value to your life and I trust that you found some in the inaugural posting. I might blog once a month, twice, or once weekly. I am leaving myself plenty of grace as I go on this journey but I do intend to write or record a video log regularly. See ya next entry and thanks for reading!
