Challenging Ourselves

I love the new year. I always feels as if I have a fresh start and am ready for a new challenge. For me, life is about growth and constantly challenging myself. So rather than write new year's resolutions I like to reassess the previous year in light of what worked and where I could improve. This year I need to check in and see where I am limiting myself. For example, I seemed to think that driving alone on a trip was now beyond me. I have made excuses all year to avoid any drive over 90 minutes. Silly, I know, but there it is.

However, not wishing to spend Christmas alone, I committed to driving to So. California to visit my family. As soon as I'd made my plans I started thinking, "If I didn't have this trip planned I could just stay home in my sweats with my blanket and a good book." and "What if my back acts up?" or "I'm just not up to all that sitting?" The dreaded "what ifs". It went on and on. You get the idea. I wasn't at all excited and kept dragging my feet about getting ready to go.

Finally, the day before I was to leave it was time to pack and I started to feel excited. I stopped worrying about whether or not I could manage a 500 mile drive. (You'd think I was ancient) I started focusing on seeing my family and being off work for a week. I was tired when I returned but I have to tell you taking this trip has been quite liberating. Of course I can drive that far. Now, when my friend in Oregon asks me to visit I can say Yes!

What other limiting beliefs have I fostered in this past year and how can I break through them to live a fuller, richer life? New Year's Day might be a great time to make a list of other ways I have limited myself and take steps to free myself. Perhaps I'll make this an annual event.
