It is what it is.

I’m on vacation right now, and I have had grand goals of all I was going to accomplish at home, in my business, and with school, and the universe had another plan for me. On Sunday I woke up with this horrid flu bug going around and it has literally knocked me on my ass.

It is the first day of a new decade, and guess what - I get to choose to decide how I think about feeling like crap. I can be annoyed and upset that I’ve lost all this time to get ahead, or I can remember this is what “is” happening in my life. I can’t control the fact that I am so sick. So I can let myself be down about it, or I can know it is exactly where I was supposed to be. It does not serve me to be bummed about the loss of four days of vacation. And — actually, I’ve had fun watching from the couch as my husband plays with my son and how much fun they are having, and while I have not had the energy to join them, I am grateful that we are all together.

So as you embark on this first week of the new year, what thoughts are you going to choose to think? Are you going to try to do it all in that first month and then burn out, or are you going to pace yourself, and let what happens — happen? What if you are right where you are supposed to be?
