End 2022 on a Positive Note and Welcome in 2023!

Whether we realize it or not everything we do or don’t do is creating our reality. We oversee our careers, relationships, finances, environment, health…practically everything. Life throws us all the occasional curveball but in general, we are the captains of our own ships.

Foxie understands this and has compiled some helpful hints as you head into the new year.

If leaving your life and career up to chance, if you believe that “whatever will happen will happen” and that your life is predestined, then this blog probably isn’t for you. But if you’d like some tips on how to close out 2022 strong and start 2023 with a bang, please read on.

Be grateful – We all have “good stuff” and” bad stuff” that we must deal with daily. If we only focus on the bad and let that consume us, then it will. Spend most of your day focusing on the “good stuff” and you will notice the difference in your overall mental well-being.

It is equally important that you show/tell the people in your life how grateful you are for their support: your peers, your manager, your family, your partner, your support team…showing them that you care and notice even the smallest of things that they do will go a long way.

Focus on what you can control – When you are worrying about something that happened in the past or something that might happen in the future, you are not appreciating the day right in front of you, which is all that you have control over.

Live by your principles – I like to keep these reminders right next to my computer every day

• • Am I making assumptions?
  • Am I taking things personally?
  • Am I doing my best?

We all go through life carrying baggage from our fears, expectations, assumptions, and embarrassments. If you review and answer these questions often, your own personal “daily journey” will be much easier to navigate.

Make a schedule, write things down – When you write things down….and then cross them off…you gain a feeling of accomplishment. If you are wanting to learn a new skill that will make you more marketable, or if you just want to spend 30 minutes a day reading with your child, pencil time in for yourself just as you would someone’s birthday or a doctor’s appointment on your calendar.
