New Year Begins! I was ready for 2007 to end. Last night I had a mind-blowing observation that I forgot my beauty when I was 12 years old. For 34 years, I forgot that there was this beauty inside. I felt the skin of my face last night cuddling on the couch with my three children, and remembered how beautiful I was as a child.
I’m sure when I lost that sense of my own beauty. In my realization last night, I went into owning that loss. Not blaming it on critical parents. Or my parents divorce. Or how my mom never believed she was even faintly beautiful -- all the while being perceived as beautiful by almost every person she ever met. Or how my brother doesn’t see his own “handsome” although he is devastatingly gorgeous to me.
How did I lose it for so long? Why did I suddenly find it? All of a sudden I know my beauty. This is such a different feeling than I have had for my adult life.
I look back on my life and it is with wonder I realize that it is not too late to feel beauty -- or see it all around me.
Today was a great day on the career front. Matthew Ferry brought me in to his circle to edit and work on words for his projects. The Colorado Business Journal published a feature article I wrote for them.
My neighbor reminded me that writing is where my heart is. I am getting more clear on the year to come as I teach and quite nearly preach the value of being in sync with one’s vision for 2008. I’m also preparing for an interview January 11 with Dave Jenks, for the former “Millionaire Mondays” on Keller Williams International broadcast channel. Should be a lot of fun.
When my letter dated one year from now is ready, I will let you all see it. I ask all of you to write one -- so I might as well share mine. After I read Matthew Ferry’s letter, I realized mine could use some more juice. So I’m beefing it up! Ciao for now and wishing you all the joy you could possibly experience.

Life is so blessed right now. We have a new puppy! He is perfect. JJ. We just love him.
The book is going wild. I am experiencing sales and presentations and opportunities that I would not have believed possible. It just takes off -- it feels effortless. I just stay in a good place and good people keep finding me.
My tele-class yesterday was so precious. The students were all so present & each seemed to get what they needed through insight, through choices of curriculum that I feel are given to me, through me, that I am the vessel and it is all so much bigger than I am.
Finances are still bumpy and roller-coaster like. I am focusing on the positive future, experiencing sales of the book and sales of classes and I am attracting new coaching clients. Still when I look at the miles of bills that stretch before me -- I am conscious that I have more to accomplish to get into peace around my abundance.
The best thing of all is that 2008 beckons with so much light. I can feel myself stepping into a new level of achievement. There is so much potential at my fingertips. I can’t believe what a wonderful life I am living.
