THE POWER OF CELEBRATION

 
 


As we're coming up to Christmas you get two shots of goals motivation and I really encourage you to use them both to the full before you set any new goals.

Both motivation shots have the same theme Celebration! If there is one thing our spirits need before we plunge into new goals for next year, it is acknowledgement and recognition for the achievements and experiences of this year. Don't be so busy looking forward that you neglect to look backwards and  celebrate your wins.

•  Celebrate what you have achieved! Big goals, little goals, part goals – look at how far you have come along the track and Celebrate!

•  Celebrate what you haven't achieved. Yes, I am serious! For in every goal that failed, or didn't work out the way you hoped, for whatever reason, there are kernels of learning that will have made you stronger and more able. You will have successfully found out what doesn't work for you – mistakes you now don't have to make, blind alley's you don't have to go down again.

Some goals fail through no fault of your own – circumstances completely beyond your control. If this is the case (and be honest here!) look at the gains you made whilst the goal was still on track and celebrate!

 
   
 

So bring out your failures from under the carpet and Celebrate the learnings. Then ask yourself if you still want that goal in some form or other. If the answer is NO Celebrate the wins and LET IT GO! If the failed goal, or something similar, is something you still want, set it again and go after it from your new position of experience and strength.

In the words of Aldous Huxley "Experience is not what happens to you, but what you do with what happens to you".

Have a wonderful Celebratory Christmas and New Year and look out for my January tip on making sure those new-year goals are strong, powerful and just right for you.

And finally remember - There is no magic without motion!

Here's to your joyful achievement
