So let the New Year - 2017 begin....

As we all come into this New Year at different times so too will we all come into our own at different times within our lives...
What will 2017 be for you?
What will you make of it?
Will you choose to linger in 2016 with regrets, mourning and the - 'What might have been's', 'Could have been's', 'Should have been's' or 'What ifs'?
Will you choose to follow the same old worn down path of yesteryear or will you choose to... 'come into your own'!
Let the 1st of January 2017 be a gift to you, one where it starts off a whole new year untarnished, untainted and free of past hurts and pain.
Yes it is can be difficult to let go of the past.
Yes it can be difficult to overcome those emotions, feelings and habits that have been a constant companion for so very long!
Yes it can be difficult to change, to be positive when things just seem so darn unfair and hurtful and resentment festers underneath!
Yes life can be the pits... life can be hard... life can be sad and lonely and... and... and... and...
BUT life can be wonderful... life can be full... life can be joyful and happy... life can have true meaning and... and... and... and...
All you need to do is to cultivate a positive spirit, believe in yourself and take that step towards change and know that with each step (that you take towards CHOOSING this path) will impel you closer to a different life!
So let the New Year - 2017 begin....
N - New
New beginnings from this day forth so live in the future and do not hold onto the past...
E = Enthusiasm
 Enthusiasm is an amazing thing as it boosts up a spirit and pushes you along. It is the secret of true success in everything you do so, start to be enthusiastic about the smallest of things and just let it grow...
W = WOW
Yes the WOW that life brings! Have that wow factor in all of your life - your thinking, words and actions - and feel the difference each day...
Y = Year
Yes another new Year is starting for you and how quickly it will go onto the next and the next so live a positive and fulfilled life for the days, the months and the years are so precious - once gone they are gone never to return...
E = Energy
The pulse and the Energy of ALL life around you is just part of yourself so, tap into this Energy and make it YOURS too...
A = Appreciation 
Appreciation of ALL life, both the minute and the giant, the insect to the Elephant, the young and the old, the sea to the sky and the rivers to the mountains - ALL of life as their life is your life so do not take it for granted, and...
R = Responsibility
Responsibility to be part of this living planet and make it part of yourself, look after it - its people, its land, its animals, its beauty and yourself.
None of us stand apart from life but we ALL are each one thread of its web. Whatever we do to the web of life we do to ourselves as just as the spider connects each strand so does each of our lives connect with all others!
Yes today, the 1st of January 2017 is a start of another year just as each first of January of every year past has started that year but make this year different! Be who you are and take care of yourself while looking out for others! Spread your kindness, your truth and your love - make 2017 the turning point towards what your life is meant to be - 
You can make a difference just as I can too so let us all CHOOSE to make a CHOICE to CHANGE our lives and in doing so change the lives of those around us!
Happy New Year to my family, friends, colleagues and strangers I have not meet!

Are You Limiting Your Thinking...?

Are you limiting your thinking and why? Are you influenced by others around you and those in your family? Are you influenced by society, by possessions or by money...?
Do you even believe that you are even worth having great thoughts about yourself or, are you so conditioned in your thinking that to step outside of your square of thoughts, beliefs and self-esteem is unthinkable?
Do not let the New Year, 2017, be the same as the old...!
You cannot change your family history or undo your past but you can learn from them and like a seed - grow, blossom and bloom in a unique way... your way! Create a legacy that outshines the past, out grows your heritage and sets you on a new path, one of your choosing.
Choose to make a choice to take a chance to change and step out in belief that you are worth the stepping out!
Dear Friends
I know personally how hard it is to 'walk away' but, yes you can do it and when you do the new beginning, which will open up for you, is amazing. 
Having a belief in yourself, your worth and ability to be able to cope with adversity and overcome is the battle half-won, as, a positive attitude is the key - thoughts, words and actions will then flow on from that.
Walk strong, walk tall and know that you are WORTH IT! 
Quote from my inspirational book:- ‘Musings of a Blogger – Inspirational Thoughts for Your Life’s Journey’- (Published in 2016 through Balboa Press):-
'Life is a journey... a destination but it is also journey of discovery too!
You are the traveler as you travel the journey of life
YOU make the CHOICES -
YOU take the CHANCES -
YOU live the CHANGES!'
(Copyright - Ruth Anne Caukwell)

 My inspirational book ‘Musings of a Blogger – Inspirational Thoughts for Your Life’s Journey’ will give you the tools to be able to help yourself find a way to make those hard choices and as you immerse yourself within its pages, you will come to realize just how much choices,  circumstances and people influence your life, both in negative and positive ways.
This is great news though as AWARENESS is the key...
awareness that we all have a choice no matter how hard life is, a choice to step out from the darkness and set your wings in an upwards tilt to fly above the storm. If you cannot do it alone, that is okay, ask and take help and ultimately, when you are ready, you will choose to step out and beyond the shadow of the pain, hardship... others... because you CAN do it... we all can - I know from personal experience that it will happen!
Read my book and work through the workbook utilizing the tools that are applicable for you, you will learn, realize and begin a journey of self-discovery. You will start to recognize that within yourself is a wonderful, unique human being, and through perseverance, you will find your true self again—your own authentic self!
