As quickly as the year 2025 began we now look around us and we witness the fact that we are already in the month of February. I would imagine that for some of us it seems like the first month of 2025 in the blink of an eye has disappeared.
For each of us there is the promise of what the beginning of a new year will bring. Dreams, goals, or even promises that we carried into the New Year serve as the template of how we are preparing ourselves to move forward.
Those first few days of each New Year are truly exciting. Some would even say that they are energizing.
While there is that fresh feeling of the beginning of a new year there comes if we are honest with ourselves, what I call the Morning After.
The Morning After is when the newness has faded away and the reality of how we continue to press forward in those moments when it doesn’t seem as exciting.
Goals, dreams and aspirations it has been said are not designed for brief moments. They are not it has been said based on the misperception of glitz and glamour.
That which we have set our minds to for this year of 2025 I would submit to each of us will not be fulfilled overnight.
The journey to mountain tops of accomplishments will see us going through valleys that will at times test the very fiber of who we are and what we stand on.
To get to our mountain tops will take time. Time that will require effort on our parts will push us to become the best version of ourselves. Time that will in the end validate the faith that we have in stepping into the future fresh with our best on display.
The Morning After. As it begins, let it do so with the commitment on our part that we welcome the challenge, we embrace the journey, and we stand resolute in our passion to be successful. www.alantblack.com
