Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.  – Oprah Winfrey

Life is an imperfect journey. Each and every day is an opportunity to get out of bed and make the world a better place.  Only you can make today a great day; only you can choose to respond to the events you encounter with skill and purpose.

Each new year is like a new day; it is a chance to reflect on the lessons from the previous year and to commit to doing it better in the days ahead.  As we prepare to bid adieu to 2018, we plan and prepare for 2019.  We will face struggles and encounter adversity. We live in an imperfect world; it isn’t going to be easy.

We face each challenge with hope, skill, and faith.  We embrace the liberty and freedom that provide us an unparalleled opportunity to make 2019 better than 2018.  It is your choice.  It won’t be easy and it won’t happen by chance.  When we do the work, act with purpose, and commit to serving others we get to write a better chapter.  You get to author the story; what will be your narrative for the year ahead.
