Bam! reality kicks in as I end the year, well half the task on my to-do list for 2019 is incomplete and life just throws a couple curve balls knocking me off kilter.One thing for sure guys—plans change but that doesn't mean you stop working at these goals. It just means we will have to strategise better, double down on objectives and most importantly, knock down the twin bitches called procrastination and fear.

Any who, lol, let's put all that behind us, shove the shitty pieces down the sewer, take the lessons and move it right along gang. The new year is upon us; it's time to break free little butterfly, escape the norms of society's cocoon, there is a wider, brighter, richer world for you to explore.

Coffee

Gang get your coffee, tea, wine, or whatever beverage is to your liking which will give you a powerful kick. I would say get your drug...wink, wink! However, as coffee is a stimulant, 2020 is the perfect time to level up; get your focus in motion, power up and win,win, win. It can be done!

So get comfy,open your heart, mind to allow your inner self to communicate to you your truth; observe, embrace, journal and meditate. Declutter your mind ( eventually your space, work area) so that you energy can flow freely.

With laser focus assess where you are at in all the important areas of your life ( fam don't sulk over spill milk in 2019, the world is your oyster so once you have life go at 'em), where you wanna go and how you gonna get there.

Time to rev those engines, set strategic goals with specific and measurable breakdown, we are ready to conquer, seize the day, any other bullish saying you wish to recite. Now is the time to lay strong foundations that you can build on each day for the rest of the year. So be real, don't think about things you don't have the resource at the moment to attain. Peeps! Rome wasn't build in one day so don't rush it. Be patient with yourself.

Pen & Paper

We've got our head out of our ass, we are focus and we have thought about what it is we wanna accomplish with a clear game plan so now we document them. I'm a bit old-fashioned so get your pen, paper, journal, or writing devices ( smirk) and start writing/ typing all that you plan to do with the steps and timeline on completing them. Fam goal-setting is good and with the right attitude and mindset you are already a step ahead.

Final Thoughts...

Ultimately all that we have talked about doesn't add up unless we take great steps which requires a lot and I mean a lot of discipline, commitment and hard work to succeed. I know many boast of being in the 5am club, but seriously whether you are a sunriser or a night owl( like myself, I prefer sleeping in and work my way through the night, boo just do besides you can't live by someone else's rules), gang it's all about doing, doing, doing, and more doing in order to unlock/activate all the opportunities presented.

You've the vision, laid the foundation so at present let's buckle up, start the ignition and drive— gang nothing wrong with dreaming but we don't wanna get stuck at dreamland, we wanna get up, show up and slay giants and see our dreams turn reality. It can be done! Are you up for the task? Are you ready to put in 200% and then some for yourself?

Well, if yes, let's get our wheels turning and cruise to our destiny with grit and grace. Happy New Year y'all!! :)
