Party!
How do you define one? A gathering with good music, great people, dancing, drinks? A warm and loving time with those close to you? A victory dance or a high five after a success?
Whichever way you celebrate the year coming to a close – I hope it will be beautiful. Reminiscing on the highs, reflecting on the lows, realizing they both bring us ahead.
To support the transition from the old year to the new, I wrote a poem with some reflection questions. As an extra, I really recommend wrapping the result of your reflections into one word that will act as an anchor for the year ahead. You can always schedule a coaching session if you would like to dive deeper.
I hope you enjoy and receive insights for your new year or new beginning….
Poem
Ending The Year With a Bang or a Bell
It’s time to end this ‘old’ year well
With a bang or with a bell
You made it through, you got things done
Which brings us to the part that’s fun
Reviewing moments, good and bad
A look-out to the new year ahead
Let’s answer with sincerity
Some reflection questions for clarity
With insights from what this year taught
Grateful for the good it brought
Relief perhaps from battles fought
There may be more than you had thought:
What was the best moment you had?
What broke your heart or made you sad?
What were moments of positivity?
What was a personal victory?
If you could change, what would you do?
What lessons will you take with you?
Did you take an old book off your shelf?
Learn something new about yourself?
What would a window to the new year show?
Which part of yourself would you like to see grow?
The plants you water are the ones that live
What is it that you would like to give?
In which life area will your focus be?
What one result would you like to see?
What can you do to get ahead?
What time do you plan go to bed?
The healthy new habits we create
Bring changes that accumulate
With small steps we can conquer fear
Which dream will you move towards this year?
I wish you faith, and hope, and love
No lostness in storms but rising above
With a sense of peace and feeling light
May your new year be blessed and bright!
Wishing you an amazing start of your new year!
Thanks again.
