Living in the present.....

By January 2nd, I was physically hurt. Not too bad, just annoying. I think my pride was hurt more then my body. As a result I am not allowed to exercise (doctor's orders) and encouraged to take it easy. I usually hit the new year running. I spent New Year's day organizing financial records and getting ready for doing my taxes (that is giving the numbers to my accountant). It was not all business, I took my daughter shopping for some clothes she needed. Being forced not to jump right in has given me time to reflect and think about what I really want for the coming year. I have determined that my overall 2017 goal is to live life in the present with a positive attitude. Now I can look at my hurt as a blessing to get me to focus on being present and not a curse worthy negative.
