A New Year, A New Routine. It's time to Fill Your Cup with Joy

2020 is in hindsight…and thank goodness.

And with 2020 in hindsight we are looking forward more clearly and positively. The past year has taught us quite a few lessons, each in our own way but mostly to appreciate the little things.

As we move forward into 2021 it's time for you to take a moment to let go of the past year, and strive to make this the year that you fill YOUR cup first.

This does not mean to fill your glass at the dinner table before the kids, your husband, etc. It means to create a new routine where you begin your day with several moments that are All YOURS.

If you have young children, wake up a half hour early. Filling your cup first allows you to take the time to do something for yourself that brings you joy.

This could be reading that book you've had on your list the entire year, begin writing in your journal, or that new book you've always wanted to write.

It could be finally starting that exercise routine that you have been putting off all year. Put away the excuses, and fill your cup first thing in the morning.

It could be starting to treat your body with love - to eat healthier and cleaner. To eliminate added sugars and alcohol.

It could be A yoga and stretch video to help with the back pain you've been dealing with this past year.

It could be starting your day with your favorite songs that always put you in a good mood.

The only person that is going to advocate for you -- is YOU. Therefore, in order to work your way to that life you want -- you must take the first step.

Find that ONE thing that brings you joy and start your day with it.

Overtime you will notice you begin adding to your cup, with additional items that bring you joy. In this new year, start a new habit and make sure it's filling your cup with something that brings you joy.

It's not hard to make a change but you must begin. And what better time than a new year to make a positive change in your life that brings you joy.

Happy 2021 - I look forward to hearing about the change you plan to make to fill your cup with joy :)

Love and Kindness Always
