Wrap it Up
December 31, 2010 at 5:19 pm by Jeannine Trimboli
So here we are.
2010 is coming to a close. The end of another year. Before I go out and celebrate this evening I am taking time to review the lessons I have learned big and small. I welcome you to do the same. If you haven’t started a journal yet now would be the perfect time to get out some paper and make a first entry.
Here is my final one for 2010. I may contradict myself a little.
1. The best decisions are not always the easiest and often what we want short term is not what is truly best for us longterm.
2. Follow your heart.
3. Take your time, be sure, but once you are sure, do not stop moving forward, and never doubt your initial gut sense.
4. Love really is more powerful than anything else in this world. That can be a positive and a negative.
5. Pain and sadness are a part of life. Do not try and push them away when they are near because they will only manifest elsewhere.
6. It really is okay to have specific standards and to actually think you are worthy of what you truly want from life and from others.
7. Not everyone is always going to be as strong or as ready. It’s okay to be alone sometimes.
8. No matter how hard you try to control circumstances in your life or in the lives of people around you know that ultimately you never will. The only thing you can control is you.
9. If you want something badly enough, passionately enough, and you aren’t sure how to begin just start anyway. If it is really meant to be and you keep working for it things eventually fall into place.
10. As soon as you decide to go for what you want the world will throw as many roadblocks at you as possible. Consider it a valuable test.
11. No matter how many times you reach out to others and get shot down, shut out, or just plain ignored, keep reaching out.
12. Do not dumb yourself down or compromise your values just to feel more included.
13. If you don’t truly love you and all you have to offer no one else’s love will make it better. When you truly love yourself someone else’s love for you will just be an extra special addition to your life but it won’t define your life.
14. Sometimes things just don’t work out. Wait a couple months or even a couple years and then you’ll look back and know why. Also remember this when things don’t work out.
15. No matter how much life throws at you it is always possible to take it on when you believe in your own ability, strength and power. You are more radiant, powerful, capable, amazing, and special than you could ever imagine. Start believing it. Allow your light to shine through a little more every day until you just radiate from every fiber.
When life throws more at you ‘Get Bigger’.
I wish you all a very safe and wonderful New Year’s Eve.
See You Next Year,
Jeannine M. Trimboli
