True humility comes from strength. When we are confident in ourselves, we do not need to prove it. We no longer need to take center stage nor hide in the back row. We have reached such comfort within that we have more space to help others shine.

​Throughout a lifetime, we change. What was important once has likely shifted into something else again and again. If you’ve been searching or striving for that one thing that will make you feel complete and never seem to get there, maybe there’s an entirely different goal or path to be discovered. And don’t forget to stop and pick some wildflowers along the way.

​We see, hear, and read about so much suffering in the world that we can find ourselves feeling overwhelmed and helpless. Perhaps we take up a noble cause to feel like we’re doing something helpful. Injustice can lead to anger, which can propel us into action.
 
We must also not underestimate the power of modeling how we would like our world to be. When each of us is doing our own part—paying attention, being kind, moving from power and integrity—we make a difference with everyone we encounter.

​While you’re busily plowing ahead into this new year, perhaps harnessing the power of inspiration toward healthy goals, remember that contentment is also a healthy practice. When there is nothing to push away and nothing to reach for, contentment is the sweet gentle gift of being where you are, just as you are.

​A new year and new horizons. It is a bold choice to open yourself to new ways of seeing and doing in the world. Identifying one small step at a time can not only help you outline a plan, but also gives you the opportunity to celebrate the wins along the way. It is easier to leave old patterns behind if we gain courage from each of our step-by-step successes.
