Reflections on 2017

There are tons of things I am truly grateful for in 2017... May be the most important ones are, (1) Starting my Masters in spiritual care and psychotherapy study; (2) Getting my Canadian citizenship... I am now a Proud Canadian! and (3) Starting my health and happiness movement - or at least announcing it to the world. It took a lot of courage to do that.

This reflection was a bit challenging. Sometimes when we look at our life, we think we did not achieve much because we did not reach any concrete goals yet... But, on second thought, I believe I did do a lot laying the foundation and the groundwork for my next stage in life, for my mission and my movement.
I did a lot of inner work. I really needed it. Again, this might not appear as 'great achievement' if we measure it from a Western mentality standpoint. It took some time for me to acknowledge the effort and actually see the fruit of this inner work. I feel I am much peaceful, grateful, confident, and focused.
And, I did finish 5 courses of my Masters' studies and wrote so many research papers that hopefully I will be sharing some of them with you in the coming months, God willing.

My most precious 3 lessons learned (the hard way) this year: (1) We have to let go of some of the things we love in order to make room for growth and open a new page of our life. (2) There no place for toxic people in my life, I learned to protect my boundaries. (3) No one gonna believe in your worth and your rights until you believe in them first!
Picture
Sometimes I cannot help but have this fear of the unknown, fear and worry about tomorrow. I need to let go of the need to 'know' everything and the attempt to 'control' the results of my efforts and actions. I need to work harder on strengthening my connection with God, on my surrender and my spiritual growth. This work, I believe, will bring inner peace that will reduce the stress and actually allow me to focus on what I can control: my actions, my attitude and my thoughts... but not the result. Meanwhile I believe deep in my heart in God's promise: "We do not let the reward of anyone who does a good deed go to waste" (18: 30).
Picture
My 3 big goals for 2018 are: (1) launching my signature training program "A Brave Woman's Journey of Self-Discovery" hopefully you all going to love it! I have been working on it for a long time now and it is one of the best curricula I have ever developed; (2) establish a woman circle where I live so we can actually meet and create our little community of brave, ambitious, like-minded women who support and help one another and support and help their communities. (3) finish at least 7 more courses of my Master's degree.

Now it is your turn... Take out your journal and make some reflections! 
​Happy New Year!
