Settling into 2021

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Pareto Realty TN #251071

We must begin with cessation of our obsession with hating 2020.

Every Monday morning, I create a theme for the week ahead.

This week is: “Finding Flow”

Essentially, this in response to my realization that I (and maybe YOU) have been running around like a beheaded chicken the past couple months as we have been orchestrating our many roles in our raplex lives. Coach, Trainer, Recruiter, friend, family member, psychologist . . . and myriad others.

Likely, you’ve been as I’ve been most of this year . . a veritable frayed knot . . . off balance – out of flow.

Finding healthy life rhythm has been enigmatic. 

It is now time to settle in, regroup, rejuvenate, and focus on the people and things that matter most . . . No more new initiatives for a while . . . full focus on practicing what we preach with respect to finding personal and professional flow.

Some good things have happened this year! 

Let’s count THOSE blessings as we complete 2020 and prepare for 2021 to be better than before.

So . . . Let’s focus on on finding FLOW in these final 6 weeks of 2020.

PS – Stop hating 2020 – Each and every one of us learned some valuable things in the face of all of that uncertainty and fear . . . What doesn’t kill us makes us stronger!
Let’s GO!

Hi Barry- maybe my head was in the sand but I have never seen the amount of hate and hypocrisy as I've seen in the last few years. Our country is blessed but we seem to have forgotten that. Many of us still have our health, our family and friends and the ability to work if we choose. Many around the world don't enjoy what we have.

Kathy Streib - YES! Let's not participate and foster an environment of being nice. This is NOT complicated. CHILL!

I haven't hated 2020. It IS one of the wackiest years I can remember but it's all just a part of this journey we call life.

Good morning Barry Owen - I think your post is necessary to make people realize that there is much to be grateful for this year.

Good morning Barry. Thought retirement would bring flow. I was wrong! It is just another form of chaos but more enjoyable. Enjoy your day!

I love this post so much, Barry. 2020 has been a weird one, but we certainly don't have to hate it. Many interesting revelations have come out of this, as well as, new ways of doing things.

Finding a way through things with a healthy life balance, rather than focusing on what we can not control, is definitely a better way to go.

Hi Barry Owen well can't say I've been focused on the crazy 2020 idea. In fact it's been quite the opposite!  I wish you would have seen the October Challenge - you would have appreciated it.

Great idea - use the rest of 2020 to restore our inner flow, rather than focusing on how rough it's been.

Entrepreneurs don't hate, they create, adapt and produce, they are optimistic not pessimistic, so, roll on Active Rain, roll on!
