New Year in July!

You've heard of Christmas in July.  Well, consider New Years in July too.  July is the beginning of the second half of your year.  It's a great time to check in to see how you're doing on your goals from January.  If you didn't choose to set goals in January, this is your chance to start your year over.  July is a fresh time of year. Summer is in full swing.  Unlike January, you have energy and good weather to help you accomplish what you really want.  So the question is, "What do you want?"

If you set goals in January, check to see how far you've come toward achieving them.  Are you half way to accomplishing them?  If not, some course correction is necessary.  If you didn't set goals yet for the year, or if you feel the need to set new ones, now is the time to look to see what you have and what you want.  The best way to get clear on what you want is to get quiet.  I find that either the first thing in the morning, or the last thing at night are the times when I can really close off everything else and focus on nothing. 

Sometimes, I choose a specific question I want clarity on and use that as my center to focus on, and then let everything else just pass by like water in the river.  Thank each thought as it comes to you, and let it go.  We all have such busy lives of doing, that we forget that being is even more important.  Take the time to just be.  See what you discover.  You may find the clarity you've been seeking, or maybe a new thought of something else that you haven't considered yet.  Try it and see if you find something that helps you move toward your goals.  Happy New Year!
