What would happen if ____________? If I tried_____________, could I make it work? What would stop me from doing ____________? What would be the worst that happened if I did __________?

Now is the time to fill in those blanks with your dreams. Your what ifs can be answered!

The new year is only the signaling of the flip of the calendar. But a new day gives me the opportunity to try something new, try something different, and to take a chance on doing things different today. Maybe it will be better than how I did it yesterday.

This is my mantra, my battle cry for 2022.
