Why you need to give yourself a great start to a Happy New Year!



You are probably thinking of a resolution you can commit to in the coming year. Maybe you have already decided on one. But perhaps you are also thinking about what will make you keep your resolution and make you a winner this time round. Well, first, the end year season brings about a goodly feeling of a new beginning, re-branding and re-positioning. The season is a God given opportunity where your efforts are likely to be openly welcomed, accepted and encouraged by friend and foe. Second, it is a season of forgiveness, forgetting the hurtful past and putting aside the many fiasco's of the past year. In this season, people choose not to remember your failures and give you a fresh start. Third, the fact that you want to give yourself a great start means that you want to engage a positive mindset to cling to the promises you wish for yourself, your friends and your family. A positive mindset is the greatest personal asset you can have to carry you and others through the coming year. Finally, your new year resolution is a statement of Hope! You may have faith, but Hope is something you cannot live without. So don’t let up. Do the honorable thing! Give yourself a great start to another year -Happy New Year!!
