40 and I know it

I am doing two weeks in one as I am a week behind due to my procrastination as to whether I could commit to this or not.

I’ve decided that yes I am up for it so here goes!

What went right in 2011?

• I was energised by: Going to the Gym, managing the reno’s on our house, travel.
• What made me happy? Spending time with my husband and children. We made 2011 “the year of doing things” and tried to do something as a family every weekend. Cooking and living a healthier life.
• I felt at peace within myself once I had decided to walk away from my business after four years. More about this later I’m sure but basically I felt like I was being pulled in a gazillion different directions, not “being there” enough for my kids and generally miserable.
• What filled my tank? being involved at my children’s school (fundraising and generally helping out), going to the gym, my book club, traveling
• My positive people: my husband and a few close friends who already know all of the above and have never judged me
• In 2011 I learnt that my family is the most important thing in my life and that I need to cherish them. I am grateful for the opportunities I have in front of me and am excited about the future.

That’s it for now!
