FROM 2014 INTO 2015 :: AND MY BIG SAYING TO LIVE BY THIS YEAR

A few wicked moments of 2014...


// Brock and I moved into our (current) Dream Home surrounded by trees with views of the ocean.

// We got dressed up all pretty for not one but two weddings down in Sydney.

// I (finally) graduated college.

// California. Yes Brock and I got over there. The Tone It Up Retreat changed my life + was the best 4 days of my life. Period. All the cool kids we met and David Wolfe's Womens Wellness Conference also need special mentions here.

// I created my very first ebook (after 5 years blogging).

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and a fabulous New Year. I loved my time down on the Sunshine Coast and was just as excited to get back home to Cairns and spend New Years chilling on the esplanade with friends, food and mojitos, watching the fireworks and chatting as the night continued on.

I always love New Year and not so much for the whole grand-evenings-plans fuelled and filled with alcohol, bare feet and partying. In fact I'm happy to sit at home watching a movie with my man. It's New Years Day that really gets my belly fired up. Waking up at dawn. Getting to the ocean. A jog outside. And really starting my day - and my year - with enthusiasm, vigour and excitement!

I also loved getting out my pens and pencils and designing how I'd love my 2015 to be - hands up who loves Leonie Dawson's Shining Life Workbook? Mmm Hmmm! And so as my first week back on the blog after 2 weeks off, I wanted to share with you what I am inviting in this coming year...


I feel that a big part of my 2015 will be around a short saying I love - 


START BEFORE YOU'RE READY


I'm feeling like there is so many gorgeous, expansive, delightful, fun things I'm choosing to do, but sometimes the fear pops up and I hear more doubt in my mind than courage. And that's ok as it's totally part of the growth process. Awareness of it is key. And so I shall start before I'm ready --

// Diving in and seeing as many clients that come knocking at my door and through my emails for Skype (even if I sometimes feel as though I'm not good enough to be working with these people)

// And the same goes with workshops in Cairns (food, nutrition, yoga, movement, journalling, meditation, dancing)

// Creating more ebook content and getting my kick ass designer to do her magic with what I give her  (even when I struggle to know what to create for you)

// Take a giant leap and perhaps, maybe just, create an entire online ecourse (there's more involved that just fear here but we'll see how things pan out)

// Saying YES to the speaking gigs I am asked to do (and I've already said yes to two... aaaahhhhhh!!) as no matter what insecurities I may have around public speaking, they are all an illusion, it's possibly excitement and not fear at all, and I know that as time still passes I will regret saying No

// Choosing to write for publications, magazines, online sources and whatever else pops up (because I love to write, and no matter how much of a hard time I can give myself every now and then, so many people tell me that they love the way I write)

// Doing whatever it takes to heal my acne and committing to practices that will help, and prepare my body for babies in the next couple of years (thinking ahead people - I want to conceive when my body is healthy, happy and really ready to take on another life)


And that's where I'm starting. 

________________________________________________________________________________________________


I'll also throw in some awesome questions to ponder for your year ahead...


// How do you want to feel this year?

You might chose one word or you might have a whole bunch of words. But if you get even a little clearer on how this might feel for you, then you will find that everything that aligns with that can fall into place with much more ease.

// What types of people do you want to spend my time with?

As the saying goes, we are the average of the 5 or 6 people we hang around the most. So have a good close look at those people. Are they lifting you up and supporting your dreams? Or are they dragging you back down with gossip and complaints about how their life is so tough?
Are your friends out there going for what they want in life and really putting themselves first?
Or are they choosing to plod along and let life direct them instead of them direct life?

// What one thing do you know you want to achieve no matter how scary or big it seems?

Life passes us by every second, every minute, every hour, every day, week, month, yep, every year. Whether we sit still and do nothing, or jump in feet first, this year will still pass. So what are you going to do with your time?
