5 Lessons from 2016

One of my favorite end of the year pastimes is reflecting on the lessons learned over the past 365 days.  I have been thinking a lot about time lately and how much it affects our lives.  Time can feel like it speeds up or slows down, when really it remains constant but our perceptions vary.  So in this matter of time, we are now approaching the end of another year.

In some ways for me 2016 feels like five years put in one, but in other ways, I can’t believe how fast it’s flown. Regardless of your outlook on this year coming to a close, a great way for us to honor the time that has passed is to reflect, remember, and reset for a brand new chapter.

For many of us, 2016 was a real doozy, giving us a hard smack down on life lessons.  While some lessons may feel challenging, it’s always important to remember that it’s all part of our awakening and shifting to the very best versions of ourselves.

Here are my top five takeaways from 2016:

 

Life is happening for us not to us.
The lesson repeats until it is learned.
Loving yourself is a life requirement.
Accept and love people where they are on their journey.
Changing the world requires us to all participate.

 

What are your biggest lessons learned in 2016?
