Happy New Year 2023 – Onward!

This is such an important time of year for me.

Each year between Christmas and New Years I set aside time to carefully look back over the last 12 months, think about the lessons I have learned through the last year (there are always many), and then set out goals for myself during the next 12 months building on the lessons learned from the last year.

As I did my morning reading this morning I was struck by this passage from St. Francis of Assisi which really captures the essence of what I’m trying to do daily in my personal life and in my professional life.

St. Francis said, “Start doing what is necessary; then do what is possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”

What a perfect quote to start the New Year.

I wish you and yours the most happy, healthy, joyful, and blessed 2023.
