Christmas is one of the most beautiful times of the year,
and it’s less to do with the twinkly lights wherever you go, and more about the
fact that just after Christmas, New Year awaits. The New Year is - for some -
just another year, another chance to have fireworks, another chance to dance
and sing Auld Lang Syne and shed a tear for another year doing life.
For others, the promise of a New Year is the turning of a
page. It’s a fresh sheet of paper in front of you; which you can use to write
down all your wishes and make them come true. It’s a chance to restart and make
the changes you’ve been promising that you would make. This can be anything you
want, from going after the job you want to finally plucking up the courage to
attend the narcissistic abuse recovery program
you’ve been eyeing for a while. Your whole future is yours to write and live,
and the New Year is a chance to make that happen. It is good to remember that
next year isn’t just a New Year: it's a new decade. This is a whole new chapter of your story to write and it’s so empowering to know that
once midnight strikes, you can close the 2019 chapter and start another, bolder
time of life.

You may not be the kind of person who goes for New Year
Resolutions, and you don’t have to be. This part of your life isn’t about
resolving to do something better or to complete a task, it’s about promising
yourself that you will do something for you. If you give yourself the chance to
have 2020 vision (not to be confused with 20-20 vision), you are going to be
able to take a step into the version of you that you always hoped you could be.
Stronger. Happier. More able to say yes where it counts and no when it matters.
You have the chance to be the best person you can be when you choose to live
that way, and you get to do that in 2020.
So, look right ahead of you and decide: do you want this
year to be one that you begin with no idea of what you want from the end of it?
Or do you want this to be the year that you are still wishing you could let go
of the hurt, the pain, the boredom? The fact that the choice to make these
changes in life is entirely up to you is overwhelming, I get that. But you do.
Your choices are going to change your life in 2020, no matter what they are.
You want to upgrade your car? You go for it. You want to heal after abuse? You
own that and you heal the best way you know how. This is your year to do the
best you can. It’s time to take ownership of your life and make it count. Happy
New Year, ladies and gents: the time for change is now.
