Where did January go?

Where did January go?

Do you remember having discussions about how hard it was to believe 2012 was already coming to an end.  “Where did the year go?” “2012 whizzed by… How did that happen?” “It seemed like only yesterday that”… etc.  You remember those conversations? They happened over office Christmas meals, seasonal drinks with your friends and festive meals with your families. Yet, here we are at the end of January already… Suggesting that 2013 may have the same Usain Bolt-esque speed that we experienced last year. Whether or not you officially set yourself some resolutions / goals within the first month of the year, chances are, you at least paused to think about what you wanted 2013 to bring. How is that going for you? Here we are, past the alleged Blue Monday (3rd Monday in January – deemed to be a common day for giving up on new years resolutions), and on the cusp of the second month of the year. Even if you aren’t a structured resolution or goal setter, I bet you still don’t want the year to pass by without feeling like you’ve moved (edged, even) closer to your aspirations in some way. Whether its leaps and bounds or the slow but steady approach, don’t let 2013 come to an end with only fireworks to make you say ooh and aaah. My wish for you is that some of that incredulity is saved for your own special achievements this year. Whether that’s earning a promotion, finding a new job, getting onto the dating scene, improving your health and fitness, going on a trip you’ve always dreamed of...
