Publisher's Note Publisher’s Note Dear friends, How can it be that we’re already at the start of another year? This is always an especially reflective time for me. I don’t often make New Year’s resolutions; instead, I write down a list of goals that I am looking forward to accomplishing. This year, I’m diving deeper into the goals I’ve set in the past: namely, to live each day with gratitude; to be in the moment; and to live a more mindful life. I also want to do more of what I love in my work, which will help me reach more people — this, I feel, is my calling. In order to live more gratefully, I am trying to establish daily habits that help me appreciate what I have. It’s easiest for me to tie these to another daily routine or time of day; for example, before I get out of bed in the morning, I try to simply lie awake for a few moments and reflect on all of the opportunities that the day might bring. This is also a much nicer way to wake up than jumping out of bed with your to-do list racing through your mind! With my hectic schedule, living mindfully is a challenge, but I try to remain aware of how I’m feeling and reacting, no matter what’s going on in my business or personal life. Because awareness is the sole goal of mindfulness, devote yourself to practicing it, and grant This time of year is always an inspiring, this practice helps me gain distance from permission to forgive yourself when you fail.
