As we begin to close out 2011 and usher in 2012, we all begin to reflect on the past and consider the future. Our family has some big dreams for this year. Jen and I were just talking about the fact that since we have children that are 14, 12, 9, 7, 2, and 9 months we can live like a young family with lots of experience 🙂
I also know that as we think about “New Years” stuff, we are inclined to be burdened by things of the past. Missed goals, mistakes, etc. I am committed to focusing on the present and future, and forgetting about the past. Yes, we have to learn from our mistakes, but, we also have to then learn to let them go.
My FTF tip for you this New Year is leave last year in last year. No one else cares nearly as much about your mistakes from last year as you do. LET IT GO! Move forward, make a new way, and live life to the fullest! We are a forgiven people; we should act like it!
Do you have someone to forgive? Something to move past? Do it today, and start 2012 on the right foot.
