This isn’t your year

For a few years I would get together with a few friends for New Year’s, and every year at midnight it was the same thing:

“This is it! This is MY year!”

Sigh.

But it never was. And at midnight the next year they’d make the same proclamation.

It’s never about it being your year.

It’s about the fact that it’s all yours. Every year, every week, every day, and every moment.

I saw so many memes shared on social media over the last couple of weeks that implied people were so ready to be done with 2018 because surely 2019 will bring something better.

And those memes, like my friends’ proclamations, appear every single year. Coincidence?

Here’s the deal: You can step up, take control, and shift the course of your life literally at any moment you choose, whether it’s January 1, April 22, or October 19.

So, if you never want to look back with regret on the actions you should have taken or how far along you’d be if you just acted sooner, change now.

Like, RIGHT NOW.

Take a new action.

Recommit and start in this very moment.

Because no day of the week or year is the day you should be waiting for.
