Be your number one fan, cheerleader and your own squad. – You must be able to cheer for yourself when no one else is cheering you on. One of the things I believe we battle with as women is our need for acceptance and approval especially as we grow older. It is a fact that most men age more gracefully than women and so as we get older there are certain insecurities that may resurrect themselves. At this point and even before we must fiercely approve of ourselves and accept the changes that are imminent and boldly allow them to illuminate our space. Otherwise we are in danger.

Love unconditionally but wisely – Life is what it is and there are many things that are out of our control including love. Do not let that close you in however. It is better to experience love fully while understand that at the end of the day we are all human beings who are oftentimes guided by misaligned emotions. Be wise.

The result – people were locked up, individuals committed suicides, homes were lost etc. I share that to say when things are not real they do not last. I also learned from Financial powerhouse JMMB (Jamaican Investment Company) “stick to your foundation, who you are, what makes you unique and different – keep that focus” and you will succeed! Look at JMMB’s growth today… their foundation is LOVE and that has never changed. Invest in the real you and you will be okay. …read entire post by clicking below.

Resolutions should be the support that gets us to where we need to go. Our focus should be on making ourselves and each day progressively better. Understanding that systematic changes are more tolerable and achievable over a “big bang” change that usually overwhelms us, while trying to change. We should let the focus of the New Year be reflective and sobering; understanding that if change should come then it requires different actions. Not the same ole, same ole, while hoping to achieve something new.
